1This is the message that was revealed to Isaiah son of Amoz concerning Judah and Jerusalem:1The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2In the last days the mountain of the house of the LORD will be established as the chief of the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and all nations will stream to it.2It shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established as the highest of the mountains, and shall be lifted up above the hills; and all the nations shall flow to it,
3And many peoples will come and say: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us His ways so that we may walk in His paths.” For the law will go forth from Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.3and many peoples shall come, and say: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob, that he may teach us his ways and that we may walk in his paths.” For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
4Then He will judge between the nations and arbitrate for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will no longer take up the sword against nation, nor train anymore for war.4He shall judge between the nations, and shall decide disputes for many peoples; 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.
5Come, O house of Jacob, let us walk in the light of the LORD.5O house of Jacob, come, let us walk in the light of the LORD.
6For You have abandoned Your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled with influences from the east; they are soothsayers like the Philistines; they strike hands with the children of foreigners.6For you have rejected your people, the house of Jacob, because they are full of things from the east and of fortune-tellers like the Philistines, and they strike hands with the children of foreigners.
7Their land is full of silver and gold, with no limit to their treasures; their land is full of horses, with no limit to their chariots.7Their 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.
8Their land is full of idols; they bow down to the work of their hands, to what their fingers have made.8Their land is filled with idols; they bow down to the work of their hands, to what their own fingers have made.
9So mankind is brought low, and man is humbled—do not forgive them!9So man is humbled, and each one is brought low— do not forgive them!
10Go into the rocks and hide in the dust from the terror of the LORD and the splendor of His majesty.10Enter into the rock and hide in the dust from before the terror of the LORD, and from the splendor of his majesty.
11The proud look of man will be humbled, and the loftiness of men brought low; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.11The haughty looks of man shall be brought low, and the lofty pride of men shall be humbled, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.
12For the Day of the LORD of Hosts will come against all the proud and lofty, against all that is exalted—it will be humbled—12For the LORD of hosts has a day against all that is proud and lofty, against all that is lifted up—and it shall be brought low;
13against all the cedars of Lebanon, lofty and lifted up, against all the oaks of Bashan,13against all the cedars of Lebanon, lofty and lifted up; and against all the oaks of Bashan;
14against all the tall mountains, against all the high hills,14against all the lofty mountains, and against all the uplifted hills;
15against every high tower, against every fortified wall,15against every high tower, and against every fortified wall;
16against every ship of Tarshish, and against every stately vessel.16against all the ships of Tarshish, and against all the beautiful craft.
17So the pride of man will be brought low, and the loftiness of men will be humbled; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day,17And the haughtiness of man shall be humbled, and the lofty pride of men shall be brought low, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.
18and the idols will vanish completely.18And the idols shall utterly pass away.
19Men will flee to caves in the rocks and holes in the ground, away from the terror of the LORD and from the splendor of His majesty, when He rises to shake the earth.19And people shall enter the caves of the rocks and the holes of the ground, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the splendor of his majesty, when he rises to terrify the earth.
20In that day men will cast away to the moles and bats their idols of silver and gold—the idols they made to worship.20In that day mankind will cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold, which they made for themselves to worship, to the moles and to the bats,
21They will flee to caverns in the rocks and crevices in the cliffs, away from the terror of the LORD and from the splendor of His majesty, when He rises to shake the earth.21to enter the caverns of the rocks and the clefts of the cliffs, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the splendor of his majesty, when he rises to terrify the earth.
22Put no more trust in man, who has only the breath in his nostrils. Of what account is he?22Stop regarding man in whose nostrils is breath, for of what account is he?
