The word to wrap up the covenant, and the speaker’s words that he will wait for the LORD

증거의 말씀을 싸매라는 말과 말하는 이가 여호와를 기다리리라는 말

Isaiah 8:16–22: the text says, “Wrap up the covenant. Seal the law among my disciples.” 8:16 carries no formula naming who speaks. The speaker (“I”) says, “I will wait for the LORD, who hides his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him. Behold, I and the children whom the LORD has given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of Armies, who dwells in Mount Zion.” The text goes on, “When they tell you, ‘Consult with those who have familiar spirits and with the wizards, who chirp and who mutter,’ shouldn’t a people consult with their God? Should they consult the dead on behalf of the living? Turn to the law and to the covenant! If they don’t speak according to this word, surely there is no morning for them. They will pass through it, very distressed and hungry. It will happen that when they are hungry, they will worry, and curse their king and their God. They will turn their faces upward, then look to the earth and see distress, darkness, and the gloom of anguish. They will be driven into thick darkness.” The Korean Revised Version reads 증거의 말씀, the word of testimony, at 8:16 and 8:20, where WEB reads “the covenant”; at 8:18 it reads 징조와 예표가 되었나니, have become signs and wonders; and at 8:19 it gives the answer as words to be said, ending with 하라 (say).
