The LORD of Armies is who you must respect as holy.
He is the one you must fear.
He is the one you must dread.
He will be a sanctuary, but for both houses of Israel, he will be a stumbling stone and a rock that makes them fall.
For the people of Jerusalem, he will be a trap and a snare.
Many will stumble over it, fall, be broken, be snared, and be captured.”
Wrap up the covenant.
Seal the law among my disciples.
I will wait for the LORD, who hides his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.
