Isaiah 28:14-16

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁴ ¶ Therefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that have taken rule over this people which is in Jerusalem.

¹⁵ Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we are at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood we have hid ourselves:

¹⁶ Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believes shall not make haste.
