10. Take counsel together, and it shall be defeated: speak a word, and it shall not be done: because God is with us.
11. For thus saith the Lord to me: As he hath taught me, with a strong arm, that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying:
12. Say ye not: A conspiracy: for all that this people speaketh, is a conspiracy: neither fear ye their fear, nor be afraid.
13. Sanctify the Lord of hosts himself: and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.
14. And he shall be a sanctification to you. But for a stone or stumbling, and for a rock of offence to the two houses of Israel, for a snare and a ruin to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
