Isaiah 2
2
1The word that Yesha’yahu [Yehovah has saved] the son of Amotz [strong] saw concerning Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] and Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace].
2And it shall come to pass in the last days, [that] the mountain of the Lord-Yehōvah’s [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
3And many people shall go and say, Come you2f, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), to the house of the God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Ya’akov [Heal of God]; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Tziyon [parched place] shall go forth the Torah, and the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) from Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace].
4And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke (reprimand; strongly warn; restrain) 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.
5O house of Ya’akov [Heal of God], come you2f, and let us walk in the light of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
6Therefore youi have forsaken youri people the house of Ya’akov [Heal of God], because they be replenished from the east, and [are] soothsayers like the P’lishtim [Immigrants], and they please themselves in the children of strangers.
7Their 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:
8Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made:
9And the common man bows down, and the great man humbles himself: therefore forgive them not!
10Enter into the rock, and hide youi in the dust, for fear of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and for the glory of his majesty.
11The proud looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) alone shall be exalted in that day.
12For the day of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies] [shall be] upon every [one that is] proud and lofty, and upon every [one that is] lifted up; and he shall be brought low:
13And upon all the cedars of L’vanon [Whiteness], [that are] high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan [Fruitful],
14And upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills [that are] lifted up,
15And upon every high tower, and upon every fenced wall,
16And upon all the ships of Tarshish [yellow jasper], and upon all pleasant pictures.
17And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) alone shall be exalted in that day.
18And the idols he shall utterly abolish.
19And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and for the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake terribly the earth.
20In 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;
21To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and for the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake terribly the earth.
22Stop relying you2f on man, whose breath [is] in his nostrils: for in what respect is he to be accounted of?

Isaiah 2
2
The City of Peace
1The vision that Isaiah#2Kg 19:2; 20:1; 2Ch 26:22; 32:20; Is 1:1; 13:1 son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem:
2In#Mc 4:1–4; Rm 2:20 the last days#Nm 24:14; Dt 4:30; Ezk 38:16; Hs 3:5
the mountain of the Lord’s house#2Ch 33:15; Is 27:13; 66:20 will be established
at the top of the mountains
and will be raised above the hills.
All nations will stream to it,#Ps 22:27; Is 56:7; Zch 14:10
3and many peoples will come and say,
“Come, let’s go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the house of the God of Jacob.#Is 29:23; 45:23; 60:13; 66:18
He will teach us about his ways
so that we may walk in his paths.”
For instruction will go out of Zion
and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
4He will settle disputes among the nations
and provide arbitration for many peoples.
They will beat their swords into plows
and their spears into pruning knives.#Is 11:6–9; 32:17–18; Jl 3:10
Nation will not take up the sword against nation,
and they will never again train for war.#Ps 72:3,7; Is 9:7; Hs 2:18; Zch 9:10
The Day of the Lord
5House of Jacob,
come and let’s walk in the Lord’s light.#Ps 27:1; 43:3
6For you have abandoned#Dt 31:17; Ps 94:14; Is 1:4 your people,
the house of Jacob,
because they are full of divination from the East
and of fortune-tellers#Lv 19:26; Dt 18:10–14; 2Kg 21:6; 2Ch 33:6; Jr 27:9; Mc 5:12 like the Philistines.#Jdg 14:3; 1Sm 6:2; 2Kg 1:2–6
They are in league#2:6 Or They teem, or They partner; Hb obscure with foreigners.
7Their#2:7 Lit Its#2:7 = the house of Jacob land is full of silver and gold,
and there is no limit to their treasures;
their land is full of horses,
and there is no limit to their chariots.#Dt 17:17
8Their land is full of worthless idols;#Is 10:10–11; 19:1–3; 31:7; Jr 2:28
they worship the work of their hands,
what their fingers have made.#Is 41:21–29; 44:9–17
9So humanity is brought low,
and each person is humbled.
Do not forgive them!#Ex 34:7
10Go into the rocks#Rv 6:15
and hide in the dust
from the terror of the Lord#1Sm 11:7; 2Ch 14:14; 17:10; 19:7; Is 2:19,21
and from his majestic splendor.#2Th 1:9
11The pride of mankind#2:11 Lit Mankind’s proud eyes will be humbled,#Ps 18:27; Is 2:17; Mc 2:3; 2Co 10:5
and human loftiness will be brought low;
the Lord alone will be exalted on that day.
12For a day belonging to the Lord of Armies is coming
against all that is proud and lofty,#Mal 4:1
against all that is lifted up — it will be humbled —
13against all the cedars of Lebanon,#Ps 29:5; Is 14:8; Hs 14:5
lofty and lifted up,
against all the oaks of Bashan,#Ezk 27:6; Zch 11:2
14against all the high mountains,#Is 40:4
against all the lofty hills,
15against every high tower,#Is 25:12; Zph 1:16
against every fortified wall,
16against every ship of Tarshish,#1Kg 10:22; Is 23:1,14; 60:9
and against every splendid sea vessel.
17The pride of mankind will be brought low,
and human loftiness will be humbled;
the Lord alone will be exalted on that day.#Mt 25:13
18The worthless idols will vanish completely.
19People will go into caves in the rocks#Is 2:10
and holes in the ground,
away from the terror of the Lord
and from his majestic splendor,
when he rises to terrify the earth.#Ps 18:7; Is 13:13; 24:1,19–20; Hg 2:6–7; Heb 12:26
20On that day people will throw
their worthless idols of silver and gold,#Is 30:22; 31:7
which they made to worship,
to the moles and the bats.
21They will go into the caves of the rocks
and the crevices in the cliffs,
away from the terror of the Lord
and from his majestic splendor,#Is 2:10
when he rises to terrify the earth.
22Put no more trust in a mere human,
who has only the breath in his nostrils.#Ps 39:11; 144:4; 146:3; Jr 17:5; Jms 4:14
What is he really worth?
