Isaiah 2:1-5
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
The Future House of God
2 The word that Isaiah son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.(A)
2 In days to come
the mountain of the Lord’s house
shall be established as the highest of the mountains
and shall be raised above the hills;
all the nations shall stream to it.(B)
3 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 instruction
and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.(C)
4 He shall judge between the nations
and shall arbitrate for 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.(D)
5 O house of Jacob,
come, let us walk
in the light of the Lord!(E)
Isaiah 2:13-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
13 against all the cedars of Lebanon,
lofty and lifted up;
and against all the oaks of Bashan;(A)
14 against all the high mountains
and against all the lofty hills;(B)
15 against every high tower
and against every fortified wall;
16 against all the ships of Tarshish
and against all the highly prized vessels.(C)
17 The haughtiness of people shall be humbled,
and the pride of everyone shall be brought low,
and the Lord alone will be exalted on that day.(D)
