Isaiah 8:12-15

Contemporary English Version

^12 (A) Don't call something a rebellious plot, just because they do, and don't be afraid of something, just because they are. ¹³ I am the one you should fear and respect. I am the holy God, the Lord All-Powerful! ^14-15 (B) Run to me for protection. I am a rock that will make both Judah and Israel stumble and break their bones. I am a trap that will catch the people of Jerusalem—they will be captured and dragged away.
