Isaiah 8:12
Compare all
10 aTake counsel together, but it will come to nothing;
Speak the word, bbut it will not stand,
cFor1 God is with us.”  

Fear God, Heed His Word

11 For the Lord spoke thus to me with1 a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying: 
12 “Do not say, ‘A conspiracy,’
Concerning all that this people call a conspiracy,
Nor be afraid of their1 threats, nor be troubled. 
13 The Lord of hosts, Him you shall hallow;
Let Him be your fear,
And let Him be your dread.
14 aHe will be as a1 sanctuary,
But ba stone of stumbling and a rock of1 offense
To both the houses of Israel,
As a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 
15 And many among them shall astumble;
They shall fall and be broken,
Be snared and1 taken.” 
16 Bind up the testimony,
Seal the law among my disciples.
