Isaiah 8:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁴ Then the Lord will be a holy place of safety for you.
    But that’s not true for many people in Israel and Judah.
    He will be a stone that causes them to trip.
    He will be a rock that makes them fall.
And for the people of Jerusalem
    he will be a trap and a snare.
¹⁵ Many of them will trip.
    They will fall and be broken.
    They will be trapped and captured.”
