Isaiah 8:9-22

9AssociateH7489 yourselves, O ye peopleH5971, and ye shall be broken in piecesH2865; and give earH238, allH3605 ye of farH4801 countriesH776: girdH247 yourselves, and ye shall be broken in piecesH2865; girdH247 yourselves, and ye shall be broken in piecesH2865.1 10TakeH5779 counselH6098 togetherH5779, and it shall come to noughtH6565; speakH1696 the wordH1697, and it shall not standH6965: for GodH410 is with us.

11for YhwhH3068 spakeH559 thus to me with a strongH2393 handH3027, and instructedH3256 me that I should not walkH3212 in the wayH1870 of this peopleH5971, sayingH559,2 12SayH559 ye not, A confederacyH7195, to all them to whom this peopleH5971 shall sayH559, A confederacyH7195; neither fearH3372 ye their fearH4172, nor be afraidH6206. 13SanctifyH6942 YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635 himself; and let him be your fearH4172, and let him be your dreadH6206. 14And he shall be for a sanctuaryH4720; but for a stoneH68 of stumblingH5063 and for a rockH6697 of offenceH4383 to bothH8147 the housesH1004 of IsraelH3478, for a ginH6341 and for a snareH4170 to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389. 15And manyH7227 among them shall stumbleH3782, and fallH5307, and be brokenH7665, and be snaredH3369, and be takenH3920. 16Bind upH6887 the testimonyH8584, sealH2856 the lawH8451 among my disciplesH3928. 17And I will waitH2442 upon YhwhH3068, that hidethH5641 his faceH6440 from the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and I will lookH6960 for him. 18Behold, I and the childrenH3206 whom YhwhH3068 hath givenH5414 me are for signsH226 and for wondersH4159 in IsraelH3478 from YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635, which dwellethH7931 in mountH2022 ZionH6726.

19And when they shall sayH559 unto you, SeekH1875 unto them that have familiar spiritsH178, and unto wizardsH3049 that peepH6850, and that mutterH1897: should not a peopleH5971 seekH1875 unto their GodH430? for the livingH2416 to the deadH4191? 20To the lawH8451 and to the testimonyH8584: if they speakH559 not according to this wordH1697, it is because there is no lightH7837 in them.3 21And they shall passH5674 through it, hardly besteadH7185 and hungryH7457: and it shall come to pass, that when they shall be hungryH7456, they shall fretH7107 themselves, and curseH7043 their kingH4428 and their GodH430, and lookH6437 upwardH4605. 22And they shall lookH5027 unto the earthH776; and behold troubleH6869 and darknessH2825, dimnessH4588 of anguishH6695; and they shall be drivenH5080 to darknessH653.
