Isaiah 2
2
The Future House of God
1The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2Now #Mic. 4:1it shall come to pass #Gen. 49:1in the latter days
#Ps. 68:15That 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 to it.
3Many people shall come and say,
#Jer. 50:5; (Zech. 8:21–23; 14:16–21)“Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
To the house of the God of Jacob;
He will teach us His ways,
And we shall walk in His paths.”
#Luke 24:47For out of Zion shall go forth the law,
And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
4He shall judge between the nations,
And rebuke many people;
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.
The Day of the Lord
5O house of Jacob, come and let us #Eph. 5:8walk
In the light of the Lord.
6For You have forsaken Your people, the house of Jacob,
Because they are filled #Num. 23:7with eastern ways;
They are #Deut. 18:14soothsayers like the Philistines,
#Ps. 106:35And they are pleased with the children of foreigners.
7#Deut. 17:16; Is. 30:16; 31:1; Mic. 5:10Their land is also full of silver and gold,
And there is no end to their treasures;
Their land is also full of horses,
And there is no end to their chariots.
8#Is. 40:19, 20; Jer. 2:28Their land is also full of idols;
They worship the work of their own hands,
That which their own fingers have made.
9People bow down,
And each man humbles himself;
Therefore do not forgive them.
10#Is. 2:19, 21; Rev. 6:15, 16Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust,
From the terror of the Lord
And the glory of His majesty.
11The lofty looks of man shall be #Prov. 16:5; Is. 5:15humbled,
The haughtiness of men shall be bowed down,
And the Lord alone shall be exalted #Hos. 2:16in that day.
12For the day of the Lord of hosts
Shall come upon everything proud and lofty,
Upon everything lifted up—
And it shall be brought low—
13Upon all #Is. 14:8; Zech. 11:1, 2the cedars of Lebanon that are high and lifted up,
And upon all the oaks of Bashan;
14#Is. 30:25Upon all the high mountains,
And upon all the hills that are lifted up;
15Upon every high tower,
And upon every fortified wall;
16#1 Kin. 10:22; Is. 23:1, 14; 60:9Upon all the ships of Tarshish,
And upon all the beautiful sloops.
17The loftiness of man shall be bowed down,
And the haughtiness of men shall be brought low;
The Lord alone will be exalted in that day,
18But the idols He shall utterly abolish.
19They shall go into the #Hos. 10:8; (Rev. 9:6)holes of the rocks,
And into the caves of the earth,
#(2 Thess. 1:9)From the terror of the Lord
And the glory of His majesty,
When He arises #Ps. 18:7; Is. 2:21; 13:13; 24:1, 19, 20; Hag. 2:6, 7; Heb. 12:26to shake the earth mightily.
20In that day a man will cast away his idols of silver
And his idols of gold,
Which they made, each for himself to worship,
To the moles and bats,
21To go into the clefts of the rocks,
And into the crags of the rugged rocks,
From the terror of the Lord
And the glory of His majesty,
When He arises to shake the earth mightily.
22#Ps. 146:3; Jer. 17:5Sever yourselves from such a man,
Whose #Job 27:3breath is in his nostrils;
For of what account is he?

Isaiah 2
2
1This is what Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of Yahweh’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains,
and shall be raised above the hills;
and all nations shall flow to it.
3Many peoples shall go and say,
“Come, let’s go up to the mountain of Yahweh,
to the house of the God of Jacob;
and he will teach us of his ways,
and we will walk in his paths.”
For the law shall go out of Zion,
and Yahweh’s word from Jerusalem.
4He will judge between the nations,
and will decide concerning many peoples.
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 any more.
5House of Jacob, come, and let’s walk in the light of Yahweh.
6For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob,
because they are filled from the east,
with those who practice divination like the Philistines,
and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.
7Their land is full of silver and gold,
neither is there any end of their treasures.
Their land also is full of horses,
neither is there any end of their chariots.
8Their land also is full of idols.
They worship the work of their own hands,
that which their own fingers have made.
9Man is brought low,
and mankind is humbled;
therefore don’t forgive them.
10Enter into the rock,
and hide in the dust,
from before the terror of Yahweh,
and from the glory of his majesty.
11The lofty looks of man will be brought low,
the arrogance of men will be bowed down,
and Yahweh alone will be exalted in that day.
12For there will be a day of Yahweh of Armies for all that is proud and arrogant,
and for all that is lifted up,
and it shall be brought low—
13for all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up,
for all the oaks of Bashan,
14for all the high mountains,
for all the hills that are lifted up,
15for every lofty tower,
for every fortified wall,
16for all the ships of Tarshish,
and for all pleasant imagery.
17The loftiness of man shall be bowed down,
and the arrogance of men shall be brought low;
and Yahweh alone shall be exalted in that day.
18The idols shall utterly pass away.
19Men shall go into the caves of the rocks,
and into the holes of the earth,
from before the terror of Yahweh,
and from the glory of his majesty,
when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
20In that day, men shall cast away their idols of silver
and their idols of gold,
which have been made for themselves to worship,
to the moles and to the bats,
21to go into the caverns of the rocks,
and into the clefts of the ragged rocks,
from before the terror of Yahweh,
and from the glory of his majesty,
when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
22Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils;
for of what account is he?
