Esias 2:6 In-Context

4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plow-shares, and their spears into sickles: and nation shall not take up sword against nation, neither shall they learn to war any more.
5 And now, O house of Jacob, come, let us walk in the light of the Lord.
6 For he has forsaken his people the house of Israel, because their land is filled as at the beginning with divinations, as the of the Philistines, and many strange children were born to them.
7 For their land is filled with silver and gold, and there was no number of their treasures; their land also is filled with horses, and there was no number of chariots.
8 And the land is filled with abominations, the works of their hands; and they have worshipped which their fingers made.
