Isaiah 8:11 - 8:18

« Isaiah 7 | Isaiah 8 | Isaiah 9 »

11 For thus Yahweh spoke to me with a strong hand and disciplined me not to walk in the way of this people, saying, 12

“You are not to say, ‘It is a conspiracy!’

In regard to all that this people call a conspiracy;

And you are not to fear what they fear, and you shall not tremble.

It is Yahweh of hosts whom you should regard as holy.

And He shall be your fear,

And He shall be your cause of trembling.

Then He shall become a sanctuary;

But to both the houses of Israel, a stone to strike and a rock to stumble over,

And a snare and a trap for the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

And many will stumble over them;

Then they will fall and be broken;

They will even be snared and caught.”

16 Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples. 17 And I will wait for Yahweh who is hiding His face from the house of Jacob; and I will hope for Him. 18 Behold, I and the children whom Yahweh has given me are for signs and wonders in Israel from Yahweh of hosts, who dwells on Mount Zion.
