Bible verse
Huddle together, O peoples, and be shattered; pay attention, all you distant lands; prepare for battle, and be shattered; prepare for battle, and be shattered!
Isaiah 8:9 · BSB
The verses around it, from Isaiah 8.
5 And the LORD spoke to me further:
6 “Because this people has rejected the gently flowing waters of Shiloah and rejoiced in Rezin and the son of Remaliah,
7 the Lord will surely bring against them the mighty floodwaters of the Euphrates—the king of Assyria and all his pomp. It will overflow its channels and overrun its banks.
8 It will pour into Judah, swirling and sweeping over it, reaching up to the neck; its spreading streams will cover your entire land, O Immanuel!
9 Huddle together, O peoples, and be shattered; pay attention, all you distant lands; prepare for battle, and be shattered; prepare for battle, and be shattered!
10 Devise a plan, but it will be thwarted; state a proposal, but it will not happen. For God is with us.”
11 For this is what the LORD has spoken to me with a strong hand, instructing me not to walk in the way of this people:
12 “Do not call conspiracy everything these people regard as conspiracy. Do not fear what they fear; do not live in dread.
13 The LORD of Hosts is the One you shall regard as holy. Only He should be feared; only He should be dreaded.
