Isaiah 28:14 Context
12To whom he said, This is the rest wherwith ye may cause the weary to rest, and this is the refreshing, yet they would not heare. 13But the word of the Lord was vnto them, precept vpon precept, precept vpon precept, line vpon line, line vpon line, here a litle and there a litle: that they might goe and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken. 14¶ Wherefore heare the worde of the Lord, yee scornefull men, that rule this people which is in Ierusalem. 15Because ye haue said, Wee haue made a couenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement, when the ouerflowing scourge shall passe thorow, it shall not come vnto vs: for wee haue made lies our refuge, and vnder falsehood haue we hid our selues: 16¶ Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Beholde, I lay in Zion for a foundation, a stone, a tryed stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: hee that beleeueth, shall not make haste.
