nkjv - Isaiah:8:11-22

nkjv@Isaiah:8:11 @ For the LORD spoke thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying:

nkjv@Isaiah:8:12 @ "Do not say, "A conspiracy,' Concerning all that this people call a conspiracy, Nor be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled.

nkjv@Isaiah:8:13 @ The LORD of hosts, Him you shall hallow; Let Him be your fear, And let Him be your dread.

nkjv@Isaiah:8:14 @ He will be as a sanctuary, But a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense To both the houses of Israel, As a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

nkjv@Isaiah:8:15 @ And many among them shall stumble; They shall fall and be broken, Be snared and taken."

nkjv@Isaiah:8:16 @ Bind up the testimony, Seal the law among my disciples.

nkjv@Isaiah:8:17 @ And I will wait on the LORD, Who hides His face from the house of Jacob; And I will hope in Him.

nkjv@Isaiah:8:18 @ Here am I and the children whom the LORD has given me! We are for signs and wonders in Israel From the LORD of hosts, Who dwells in Mount Zion.

nkjv@Isaiah:8:19 @ And when they say to you, "Seek those who are mediums and wizards, who whisper and mutter," should not a people seek their God? Should they seek the dead on behalf of the living?

nkjv@Isaiah:8:20 @ To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

nkjv@Isaiah:8:21 @ They will pass through it hard-pressed and hungry; and it shall happen, when they are hungry, that they will be enraged and curse their king and their God, and look upward.

nkjv@Isaiah:8:22 @ Then they will look to the earth, and see trouble and darkness, gloom of anguish; and they will be driven into darkness.
