10Let your designs be formed, and they will come to nothing; give your orders, and they will not be effected: for God is with us.
11For the Lord, controlling me with a strong hand, gave me orders not to go in the way of this people, saying,
12Do 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.
13But let the Lord of armies be holy to you, and go in fear of him, giving honour to him.
14And 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.
15And numbers of them, falling on the stone, will be broken, and will be taken in the net.
16Let my teaching be kept secret: and my words be given to my disciples only.
