Isaiah2
The Mountain of Yahweh
1The word that Isaiah son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem:2And it shall happen in the future of the daysthe mountain of the house of Yahweh shall be established;it will be among the highest of the mountains,and it shall be raised from the hills.All of the nations shall travel to him;3many peoples shall come.And they shall say,“Come, let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh,to the house of the God of Jacob,and may he teach us part of his ways,and let us walk in his paths.”For instruction shall go out from Zion,and the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.4He shall judge between the nationsand he shall arbitrate for many peoples.They shall beat their swords into ploughsharesand their spears into pruning hooks.A nation shall not lift up a sword against a nation,and they shall not learn war again.The Day of Yahweh
5House of Jacob, come and let us walk in the light of Yahweh.6For you have forsaken your people, house of Jacob,because they are full from the east,and of soothsayers like the Philistines,and ⸤they make alliances⸥ with the offspring of foreigners.7And its land is filled with silver and gold,and there is no end to its treasures;and its land is filled with horses,and there is no end to its chariots.8Its land is filled with idols;they bow down to the work of their hands,to what they made with their fingers.9So humanity is humbled;everyone is humbled,and you must not forgive them.10Enter into the rockand hide yourself in the dustfrom the presence of the terror of Yahwehand from the glory of his majesty.11The ⸤haughty eyes⸥ of humanity will be brought low,and the pride of everyone will be humbled,and Yahweh alone will be exalted on that day.12For there is a day for Yahweh of hostsagainst all of the proud and the loftyand against all that is lifted up and humble, 13and against all the lofty and lifted up cedars of Lebanon,and against all the large trees of Bashan,14and against all the high mountains,and against all the lofty hills,15and against every kind of high tower,and against every kind of fortified wall,16and against all the ships of Tarshish,and against all the ships of desire.17And the haughtiness of the people shall be humbled,and the pride of everyone shall be brought low,and Yahweh alone will be exalted on that day.18And the idols shall pass away entirely,19and they will enter into the caves of the rocksand into the holes of the groundfrom the presence of the terror of Yahwehand from the glory of his majesty⸤when he rises⸥ to terrify the earth.20On that day humanity will throw away its idols of silverand its idols of gold,which they made for it to worship,to the rodents and to the bats—21to enter into the crevices of the rocksand into the clefts of the cragsfrom the presence of the terror of Yahwehand from the glory of his majesty,⸤when he rises⸥ to terrify the earth.22Turn away from humanity,who has breath in its nostrils, for by what is it esteemed?Logos Bible Software
