Isaiah  


2 : 1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 : 2 It shall come to pass in the latter daysthatthe mountain of the house of theLordshall be established as the highest of the mountains,and shall be lifted up above the hills;andall the nations shall flow to it,
2 : 3 andmany peoples shall come, and say:Come, let us go up to the mountain of theLord,to the house of the God of Jacob,that he may teach us his waysand that we may walk in his paths.Forout of Zion shall go the law,and the word of theLordfrom Jerusalem.
2 : 4 He shall judge between the nations,and shall decide disputes for many peoples;and 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 anymore.
2 : 5 O house of Jacob,come, let us walkinthe light of theLord.
2 : 6 For you have rejected your people,the house of Jacob,because they are full of thingsfrom the eastandof fortune-tellerslike the Philistines,and theystrike hands with the children of foreigners.
2 : 7 Their land isfilled with silver and gold,and there is no end to their treasures;their land isfilled with horses,and there is no end to their chariots.
2 : 8 Their land isfilled with idols;they bow down tothe work of their hands,to what their own fingers have made.
2 : 9 So manis humbled,and each oneis brought low&emdash;do not forgive them!
2 : 10 Enter into the rockand hide in the dustfrom before the terror of theLord,and from the splendor of his majesty.
2 : 11 The haughty looks of man shall be brought low,and the lofty pride of men shall be humbled,and theLordalone will be exalted in that day.
2 : 12 For theLordof hosts has a dayagainst all that is proud and lofty,against all that is lifted up&emdash;and it shall be brought low;
2 : 13 against all thecedars of Lebanon,lofty and lifted up;and against all theoaks of Bashan;
2 : 14 against allthe lofty mountains,and against all the uplifted hills;
2 : 15 against every high tower,and against every fortified wall;
2 : 16 against allthe ships of Tarshish,and against all the beautiful craft.
2 : 17 And the haughtiness of man shall be humbled,and the lofty pride of men shall be brought low,and theLordalone will be exalted in that day.
2 : 18 And the idols shall utterly pass away.
2 : 19 And people shall enter the caves of the rocksand the holes of the ground,from before the terror of theLord,and from the splendor of his majesty,when he rises to terrify the earth.
2 : 20 In that daymankind will cast awaytheir idols of silver and their idols of gold,which they made for themselves to worship,to the moles and to thebats,
2 : 21 to enter the caverns of the rocksand the clefts of the cliffs,from before the terror of theLord,and from the splendor of his majesty,when he rises to terrify the earth.
2 : 22 Stop regarding manin whose nostrils is breath,for of what account is he?
