Isaiah 8:11-18
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
11 The Lord spoke thus to me while his hand was strong upon me and warned me not to walk in the way of this people, saying:(A) 12 “Do not call conspiracy all that this people calls conspiracy, and do not fear what it fears or be in dread.(B) 13 But the Lord of hosts, him you shall regard as holy; let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.(C) 14 He will become a sanctuary, a stone one strikes against; for both houses of Israel he will become a rock one stumbles over, a trap and a snare for the inhabitants of Jerusalem.(D) 15 And many among them shall stumble; they shall fall and be broken; they shall be snared and taken.”(E)

Isaiah 8:11-18
Evangelical Heritage Version
11 Listen! This is how the Lord spoke to me with a strong hand upon me. He instructed me not to walk in the way of this people. He said:
12 Do not say “A conspiracy!” about everything that this people calls a conspiracy. Do not fear what they fear.[a] Do not be terrified. 13 The Lord of Armies is the one you are to respect as holy. He is the one you must fear. He is the one you must dread. 14 He will be a sanctuary, but for both houses of Israel he will be a stone they stumble over and a rock they fall over, and he will be a snare and a trap for the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 15 Many will stumble over it. They will fall and be broken. They will be snared and captured.
16 Roll up the scroll of testimony. Seal the law among my disciples. 17 I will wait for the Lord, who hides his face from the house of Jacob, and I will wait hopefully for him. 18 Look, I and the children whom the Lord has given me are signs and warnings to Israel from the Lord of Armies, who dwells in Mount Zion.
