Isaiah 2:1-9

1The word which 1Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

2Now it will come about that 2In the last days The 3mountain of the house of the Lord Will be established 4as the chief of the mountains, And will be raised above the hills; And 5all the nations will stream to it.3And many peoples will come and say, “Come, let’s go up to the mountain of the Lord, To the house of the God of Jacob; So that He may teach us 6about His ways, And that we may walk in His paths.” For 7the law will go out 8from Zion And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.4And He will judge between the nations, And will mediate for many peoples; And 9they will beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning knives. 10Nation will not lift up a sword against nation, And never again will they learn war.

5Come, 11house of Jacob, and let’s walk in the 12light of the Lord.6For You have 13abandoned Your people, the house of Jacob, Because they are filled with influences from the east, And they are soothsayers 14like the Philistines. They also 1516strike bargains with the children of foreigners.7Their land has also been filled with silver and gold And there is no end to their treasures; Their land has also been filled with 17horses, And there is no end to their chariots.8Their land has also been 18filled with idols; They worship the 19work of their hands, That which their fingers have made.9So 20the common person has been humbled And the person of importance has been brought low, But 21do not forgive them.
