Isaiah 8:10-12

Expanded Bible

¹⁰ ·Make your plans for the fight [Devise your strategy],
    but ·they will be defeated [it will be thwarted].
·Give orders to your armies [^LSpeak a command/word],
    but ·they will be useless [^Lit will not stand],
because ·God is with us [^LImmanuel].

¹¹ [^LFor] The Lord spoke to me with his ·great power [^Lstrong hand] and warned me not to ·follow the lead [^Lwalk in the way] of ·the rest of the [^Lthis] people. He said,
¹² “·People are saying that others make plans against them,
    but you should not believe them [^LDon’t call ‘conspiracy’ everything this people calls ‘conspiracy’].
Don’t be afraid of what they fear;
    do not dread those things.
