Hearken to me,
ye that follow after righteousness,
ye that seek the LORD:
look unto the rock whence ye are hewn,

I am no preacher, but, am a prime sinner and living in this world in HIS mercy. For a sinner like me too, when I read “The Holy Bible” KJV,  the following verses were given in the context of “rock”.

and hide thee in the dust, for fear of the LORD,
and for the glory of his majesty.

when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.

that thou hast hewed thee out a sepulchre here,
as he that heweth him out a sepulchre on high,

under the clifts of the rocks?

and the pride of thine heart,
O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock,

I will bring thee down from thence, saith the LORD.

Jeremiah 51:25 Behold, I am against thee,
O destroying mountain, saith the LORD,
which destroyest all the earth:
and I will stretch out mine hand upon thee,
and roll thee down from the rocks,
and will make thee a burnt mountain.

Ezekiel 24:7 For her blood is in the midst of her;
she set it upon the top of a rock;

to come up to take vengeance;
I have set her blood upon the top of a rock,
that it should not be covered.

whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart,
