  • Isa 28:14-22 : 14 Therefore, hear the word of the LORD, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem. 15 Because you have said, 'We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have made an agreement. When the overwhelming scourge passes through, it will not reach us, for we have made lies our refuge and falsehood our hiding place.' 16 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: 'Behold, I am laying a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation. The one who believes will not panic.' 17 I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plumb line. Hail will sweep away your refuge of lies, and water will flood your hiding place. 18 Your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand. When the overwhelming scourge passes through, you will be trampled by it. 19 As often as it passes through, it will seize you. Morning after morning, day and night, it will pass through. The understanding of this message will bring only terror. 20 The bed is too short to stretch out on, and the blanket is too narrow to wrap oneself in. 21 For the LORD will rise up as He did at Mount Perazim; He will rouse Himself as in the Valley of Gibeon to do His work, His strange work, and perform His task, His alien task. 22 Now do not mock, or your chains will be even heavier, for I have heard from the Lord GOD of Hosts a decree of destruction against the whole land.
