Context Readings

Wait For Yahweh

12 Do not say, It is holy, about everything of which this people says, It is holy; and do not be in fear of what they go in fear of. 13 But let the Lord of armies be holy to you, and go in fear of him, giving honour to him. 14 And he will be for a holy place: but for a stone of falling and a rock of trouble to the two houses of Israel, and to the men of Jerusalem, for a net in which they may be taken.
