Isaiah 8:9-13 NWT
9 Be injurious, O you peoples, and be shattered to pieces; and give ear, all you in distant parts of the earth! Gird yourselves, and be shattered to pieces! Gird yourselves, and be shattered to pieces! 10 Plan out a scheme, and it will be broken up! Speak any word, and it will not stand, for God is with us! 11 For this is what Jehovah has said to me with strongness of the hand, that he may make me turn aside from walking in the way of this people, saying: 12 "You men must not say, 'A conspiracy!' respecting all that of which this people keep saying, 'A conspiracy!' and the object of their fear you men must not fear, nor must you tremble at it. 13 Jehovah of armies-he is the One whom you should treat as holy, and he should be the object of your fear, and he should be the One causing you to tremble."

Isaiah 8:9-13 LITV
(9) O peoples, suffer evil, and be broken! And listen, all from the far places of the earth; gird yourselves, and be broken. Gird yourselves and be broken! (10) Counsel a counsel, and it is frustrated; speak a word, and it shall not rise; for God is with us. (11) For so Jehovah spoke to me with a strong hand, and taught me against walking in the way of this people, saying, (12) Do not say, A conspiracy, to everything of which this people says, A conspiracy! And do not fear its fear, and do not dread. (13) Sanctify Jehovah of Hosts Himself, and let Him be your fear; and let Him be your dread.

Isaiah 8:9-13 ASV
(9) Make an uproar, O ye peoples, and be broken in pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries: gird yourselves, and be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and be broken in pieces. (10) Take counsel together, and it shall be brought to nought; speak the word, and it shall not stand: for God is with us. (11) For Jehovah spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying, (12) Say ye not, A conspiracy, concerning all whereof this people shall say, A conspiracy; neither fear ye their fear, nor be in dread thereof. (13) Jehovah of hosts, him shall ye sanctify; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
