Isaiah 2:4-6
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
4 He shall judge between the nations,
and shall decide 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 any more.[a]
Judgment Pronounced on Arrogance
5 O house of Jacob,
come, let us walk
in the light of the Lord.
6 For thou hast rejected thy people,
the house of Jacob,
because they are full of diviners[b] from the east
and of soothsayers like the Philistines,
and they strike hands with foreigners.
