Isaiah 2:1-5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
The City of Peace
2 The vision that Isaiah(A) son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem:
2 In(B) the last days(C)
the mountain of the Lord’s house(D) will be established
at the top of the mountains
and will be raised above the hills.
All nations will stream to it,(E)
3 and many peoples will come and say,
“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the house of the God of Jacob.(F)
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.
4 He will settle disputes among the nations
and provide arbitration for many peoples.
They will turn their swords into plows
and their spears into pruning knives.(G)
Nations will not take up the sword against other nations,
and they will never again train for war.(H)
The Day of the Lord
5 House of Jacob,
come and let us walk in the Lord’s light.(I)
Isaiah 11:11-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
11 On that day(A) the Lord will extend His hand a second time to recover—from Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Cush, Elam, Shinar, Hamath, and the coasts and islands of the west—the remnant of His people who survive.(B)
12 He will lift up a banner for the nations
and gather the dispersed of Israel;(C)
He will collect the scattered of Judah
from the four corners of the earth.(D)
Isaiah 14:1-2
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Israel’s Return
14 For the Lord will have compassion(A) on Jacob and will choose Israel again.(B) He will settle them on their own land.(C) The foreigner will join them and be united with the house of Jacob.(D) 2 The nations will escort Israel and bring it to its homeland. Then the house of Israel will possess them as male and female slaves in the Lord’s land.(E) They will make captives of their captors and will rule over their oppressors.
