[8:11] With his great power the Lord warned me not to follow the road which the people were following. He said,
[8:12] “Do not join in the schemes of the people and do not be afraid of the things that they fear.
[8:13] Remember that I, the Lord Almighty, am holy; I am the one you must fear.
[8:14] Because of my awesome holiness I am like a stone that people stumble over; I am like a trap that will catch the people of the kingdoms of Judah and Israel and the people of Jerusalem.
[8:15] Many will stumble; they will fall and be crushed. They will be caught in a trap.”
