Isaiah 8:12-14

Modern English Version

¹² You should not say, “It is a conspiracy,”
    concerning all that this people calls a conspiracy,
neither fear their threats
    nor be afraid of them.
¹³ Sanctify the Lord of Hosts Himself,
    and let Him be your fear,
    and let Him be your dread.
¹⁴ He shall become a sanctuary,
    but a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense
to both the houses of Israel,
    and a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
