Isaiah 2

Third Millennium Bible TMB

1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem:

2 And it shall come to pass in the last days that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it.

3 And many people shall go and say, "Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths." For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

4 And He shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people; 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.

5 O house of Jacob, come ye and let us walk in the light of the LORD.

6 For Thou hast forsaken Thy people, the house of Jacob, because they are replenished from the East, and are soothsayers like the Philistines; and they please themselves with the children of strangers.

7 Their land also is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures; their land is also 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 And the lowly man boweth down, and the great man humbleth himself; therefore forgive them not.

10 Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, for fear of the LORD and for the glory of His majesty.

11 The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.

12 For the day of the LORD of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up--and he shall be brought low"

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

14 and upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up;

15 and upon every high tower, and upon every fortified wall;

16 and upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant sights.

17 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day,

18 and the idols He shall utterly abolish.

19 And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD and for the glory of His majesty, when He ariseth to shake terribly the earth.

20 In that day a man shall cast away his idols of silver and his idols of gold (which he made each one for himself to worship) to the moles and to the bats,

21 to go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the LORD and for the glory of His majesty, when He ariseth to shake terribly the earth.

22 Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he?

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 This is the message which Isaiah, son of Amoz, saw about Judah and Jerusalem.

2 In the last days the mountain of the LORD's house will be established as the highest of the mountains and raised above the hills. All the nations will stream to it.

3 Then many people will come and say, "Let's go to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways so that we may live by them." The teachings will go out from Zion. The word of the LORD will go out from Jerusalem.

4 Then he will judge disputes between nations and settle arguments between many people. They will hammer their swords into plowblades and their spears into pruning shears. Nations will never fight against each other, and they will never train for war again.

5 Come, descendants of Jacob, let's live in the light of the LORD.

6 LORD, you have abandoned your people, the descendants of Jacob, because they are filled with Eastern influences. They are fortunetellers like the Philistines, and they make deals with foreigners.

7 Their land is filled with silver and gold, and there is no end to their treasures. Their land is filled with horses, and there is no end to their chariots.

8 Their land is filled with idols, and they worship what their hands have shaped and what their fingers have molded.

9 People will be brought down. Everyone will be humbled. Do not forgive them.

10 Go in among the rocks and hide underground because of the LORD's terrifying presence and the honor of his majesty.

11 The eyes of arrogant people will be humbled. High and mighty people will be brought down. On that day the LORD alone will be honored.

12 The LORD of Armies will have his day against all who are arrogant and conceited and all who are proud of themselves (they will be humbled),

13 against all the towering and mighty cedars of Lebanon and all the oaks of Bashan,

14 against all the high mountains and all the lofty hills,

15 against every high tower and every fortified wall,

16 against all the large ships of Tarshish and all the beautiful boats.

17 Then arrogant people will be brought down, and high and mighty people will be humbled. On that day the LORD alone will be honored.

18 Then idols will disappear completely.

19 People will go into caves in the rocks and into holes in the ground because of the LORD's terrifying presence and the honor of his majesty when he rises to terrify the earth.

20 On that day people will throw to the moles and the bats the silver and gold idols that they made for themselves to worship.

21 They will go into caves in the rocks and into cracks in the cliffs because of the LORD's terrifying presence and the honor of his majesty when he rises to terrify the earth.

22 Stop trusting people. Their life is in their nostrils. How can they be worth anything?
