Isaiah 8:14

Read in context

Isaiah 8:12–16 · Berean Standard Bible

12 “Do not call conspiracy everything these people regard as conspiracy. Do not fear what they fear; do not live in dread.

13 The LORD of Hosts is the One you shall regard as holy. Only He should be feared; only He should be dreaded.

14 And He will be a sanctuary— but to both houses of Israel a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense, to the dwellers of Jerusalem a trap and a snare.

15 Many will stumble over these; they will fall and be broken; they will be ensnared and captured.”

16 Bind up the testimony and seal the law among my disciples.
