14 He will be a holy place;(A)
    for both Israel and Judah he will be
a stone(B) that causes people to stumble(C)
    and a rock that makes them fall.(D)
And for the people of Jerusalem he will be
    a trap and a snare.(E)
15 Many of them will stumble;(F)
    they will fall and be broken,
    they will be snared and captured.”

16 Bind up this testimony of warning(G)
    and seal(H) up God’s instruction among my disciples.
17 I will wait(I) for the Lord,
    who is hiding(J) his face from the descendants of Jacob.
I will put my trust in him.(K)

14 And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

15 And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.

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

17 And I will wait upon the Lord, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.
