Isaiah 02

1 This is whatIsaiah the son of Amoz saw
concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

2 It shall happen in the latter days, that the
mountain of Yahweh’s house shall
be established on the top of the
mountains, and shall be raised above the hills;
and all nations shall flow to it.

3 Many peoples shall go and say,
“Come, let’s go up to the mountain of
Yahweh, to the house of the God of Jacob;
and he will teach us of his ways,
and we will walk in his paths.”
For the law shall go out of Zion,
and Yahweh’s word from Jerusalem.

4 He will judge between the nations,
and will decide concerning many peoples.
They shall beat their swords into
plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks.
Nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war any more.

5 House ofJacob, come, andlet’s walk inthe
light of Yahweh.

6 For you have forsaken your people, the
house of Jacob, because they are filled from the east,
with those who practice divination
like the Philistines, andthey clasphands withthe children
of foreigners.

7 Their land is full of silver and gold,
neither is there any end of their treasures.
Their land also is full of horses,
neither is there any end of their chariots.

8 Their land also is full of idols.
They worship the work of their own
hands, that which their own fingers have
made.

9 Man is brought low,
and mankind is humbled;
therefore don’t forgive them.

10 Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust,
from before the terror of Yahweh, and from the
glory of his majesty 11 The lofty looks of man will be brought
low, the arrogance of men will be bowed
down, and Yahweh alone will be exalted in
that day.

12 For there will be a day of Yahweh of
Armies for all that is proud and arrogant,
and for all that is lifted up,
and it shall be brought low—

13 for all the cedars of Lebanon, that
are high and lifted up,
for all the oaks of Bashan,

14 for all the high mountains,
for all the hills that are lifted up,

15 for every lofty tower,
for every fortified wall,

16 for all the ships of Tarshish,
and for all pleasant imagery.

17 The loftiness of man shall be bowed
down, and the arrogance of men shall be
brought low; and Yahweh alone shall be exalted in
that day.

18 The idols shall utterly pass away.

19 Men shall go into the caves of the rocks,
and into the holes of the earth,
from before the terror of Yahweh,
and from the glory of his majesty,
when he arises to shake the earth
mightily.

20 In that day, men shall cast away their
idols of silver and their idols of gold,
which have been made for themselves
to worship, to the moles and to the bats,

21 to go into the caverns of the rocks,
and into the clefts of the ragged rocks,
from before the terror of Yahweh,
and from the glory of his majesty,
when he arises to shake the earth
mightily.

22 Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in
his nostrils; for of what account is he?
