2 The word that aIsaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

2  aaAnd it shall come to pass bin the last days,

That cthe mountain of the Lord’s house shall be ||destablished in the top of the mountains,

And shall be exalted above the hills;

And efall nations shall flow unto it.

3  And many people shall go and say,

gCome ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,

To the house of the God of Jacob;

And he will hteach us of his ways,

And we will walk in his paths:

For iout of Zion shall go forth the law,

And fthe word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

4  And he shall judge among the nations,

And shall rebuke many people:

And kthey shall beat their swords into lplowshares,

kAnd their spears into ||mpruninghooks:

Nation shall not lift up sword against nation,

nNeither shall they learn war any more.

5  O house of Jacob, come ye,

And let us owalk in the light of the Lord.

6  Therefore thou hast forsaken thy people the house of Jacob,

Because they be replenished ||pfrom the east,

And are qsoothsayers rlike the Philistines,

And they ||splease themselves in the children of strangers.

7  Their land also is tfull of silver and gold,

Neither is there any end of their treasures;

Their land is also ufull of horses,

Neither is there any end of their chariots:

8  Their land also is vfull of widols;

They worship the work of their own hands,

That which their own fingers have made:

9  And xthe mean man boweth down,

And xthe great man yhumbleth himself:

Therefore forgive them not.

10  zEnter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust,

zaFor fear of the Lord, and for the glory of his majesty.

11  bThe lofty looks of man shall be humbled,

And the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down,

And cthe Lord alone shall be exalted din that day.

12  For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon every one that is eproud and lofty,

And upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be ebrought low:

13  And upon all fthe cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up,

And upon all gthe oaks of Bashan,

14  And hupon all the high mountains,

And hupon all the hills that are lifted up,

15  And upon every high tower,

And upon every fenced wall,

16  And upon all ithe ships of Tarshish,

And upon all †pleasant pictures.

17  And jthe loftiness of man shall be bowed down,

And the haughtiness of men shall be made low:

And the Lord alone shall be exalted jin that day.

18  And k||the widols he shall utterly abolish.

19  And lthey shall go into the mholes of the rocks,

And into the caves of †the earth,

lFor fear of the Lord, and for the glory of his majesty,

When he ariseth nto shake terribly the earth.

20  dIn that day oa man shall cast †his widols of silver, and his widols of gold,

||Which they made each one for himself to worship,

To the moles and to pthe bats;

21  lTo go into qthe clefts of the rocks,

And into rthe tops of the ragged rocks,

lFor fear of the Lord, and for the glory of his majesty,

When he ariseth nto shake terribly the earth.

22  sCease ye from man, twhose breath is in his nostrils:

For wherein is he to be accounted of?
