Isaiah 2
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 * in 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 pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up * sword against nation, neither shall they learn * war any more.
5. O house of Jacob, come * ye, and let us walk * in the light of the LORD.
6. Therefore thou hast forsaken * thy people the house of Jacob, because they be replenished * from the east, and are soothsayers * like the Philistines, and they please * themselves in 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 mean 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 fenced * wall,
16. And upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant pictures.
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 * his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they 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 wherein is he to be accounted of * ?
