<< 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
?

King James Bible
7 Submit yourselves
therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God,
and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify
your hearts, ye double minded. 9 Be
afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning,
and your joy to heaviness. 10 Humble
yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
