Isaiah 2
Common English Bible
The Lord’s mountain
2 This is what Isaiah, Amoz’s son, saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 In the days to come
the mountain of the Lord’s house
will be the highest of the mountains.
It will be lifted above the hills;
peoples will stream to it.
3 Many nations will go and say,
“Come, let’s go up to the Lord’s mountain,
to the house of Jacob’s God
so that he may teach us his ways
and we may walk in God’s paths.”
Instruction will come from Zion;
the Lord’s word from Jerusalem.
4 God will judge between the nations,
and settle disputes of mighty nations.
Then they will beat their swords into iron plows
and their spears into pruning tools.
Nation will not take up sword against nation;
they will no longer learn how to make war.
5 Come, house of Jacob,
let’s walk by the Lord’s light.
Everyone is brought low
6 You have abandoned your people,
house of Jacob.
They are full of sorcerers from the east and fortune-tellers like the Philistines;
they hold hands with foreigners’ children.[a]
7 Their land is full of silver and gold;
they have countless treasures.
Their land is filled with horses;
they have countless chariots.
8 Their land is filled with idols;
they worship their handiwork,
what their own fingers have made.
9 Humanity will be brought down;
each person laid low—don’t lift them up![b]
10 Go into the rocks,
and hide yourself in the dust from the terror of the Lord,
from the splendor of God’s majesty!
11 People’s proud gazing will be stopped
and humanity’s arrogance brought down;
the Lord alone will be exalted on that day.
12 The Lord of heavenly forces has planned a day:
against all that is prideful and haughty;
against all that is lofty, and it will be laid low;[c]
13 against all the cedars of Lebanon, high and lofty;
against all the oaks of Bashan;
14 against all the high mountains;
against all the lofty hills;
15 against every tall tower;
against every fortified wall;
16 against all the ships of Tarshish;
against all the wonderful boats.[d]
17 People’s pride will be brought down
and human arrogance humiliated.
The Lord alone will be exalted on that day;
18 the idols will completely pass away.
19 Go into caves in the rocks
and holes in the dust
before the terror of the Lord
and the splendor of God’s majesty,
when he arises to terrify the earth.
20 On that day, people will toss
to the rodents[e] and to the bats
their idols of silver and idols of gold,
which they made for themselves to worship.
21 They will hide in fissures of rocks and in crevices of cliffs
before the terror of the Lord
and the splendor of God’s majesty
when he arises to terrify the earth.
22 Quit admiring the human race,
who breathe through their nostrils.
Why should they be admired?

Isaías 2
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
Reinado universal de Dios y Su juicio
2 Lo que[a] vio Isaías, hijo de Amoz, con relación a Judá y Jerusalén(A).
2 ¶(B)Acontecerá en los postreros días,
Que el monte(C) de la casa del Señor
Será establecido como[b] cabeza de los montes.
Se alzará sobre los collados,
Y confluirán a él todas las naciones(D).
3 Vendrán muchos pueblos, y dirán:
«Vengan, subamos al monte del Señor,
A la casa del Dios de Jacob,
Para que nos enseñe acerca de Sus caminos,
Y andemos en Sus sendas».
Porque de Sión saldrá la ley[c],
Y de Jerusalén la palabra del Señor(E).
4 Él juzgará entre las naciones,
Y hará decisiones por[d] muchos pueblos.
Forjarán sus espadas en rejas de arado(F),
Y sus lanzas en podaderas.
No alzará espada nación contra nación,
Ni se adiestrarán más para la guerra(G).
5 ¶Casa de Jacob(H), vengan y caminemos a la luz del Señor(I).
6 Ciertamente has abandonado a Tu pueblo(J), la casa de Jacob,
Porque están llenos de costumbres del oriente,
Son adivinos como los filisteos(K),
Y hacen tratos[e] con hijos de extranjeros(L).
7 Se ha llenado su tierra de plata y de oro,
Y no tienen fin sus tesoros.
Su tierra se ha llenado de caballos,
Y no tienen fin sus carros(M).
8 También su tierra se ha llenado de ídolos(N).
Adoran la obra de sus manos(O),
Lo que han hecho sus dedos.
9 Ha sido humillado el hombre común,
Y ha sido abatido el hombre de importancia(P);
Pero no los perdones(Q).
10 Métete en la roca, y escóndete en el polvo(R)
Del terror del Señor y del esplendor de Su majestad(S).
11 La mirada altiva[f] del hombre será abatida(T),
Y humillada la soberbia de los hombres(U).
Solo el Señor será exaltado en aquel día.
12 ¶Porque el día del Señor de los ejércitos vendrá
Contra todo el que es soberbio y orgulloso(V),
Contra todo el que se ha ensalzado,
Y serán abatidos.
13 Y esto será contra todos los cedros del Líbano
Altos y erguidos,
Contra todas las encinas de Basán(W),
14 Contra todos los montes encumbrados(X),
Contra todos los collados elevados,
15 Contra toda torre alta(Y),
Contra toda muralla fortificada,
16 Contra todas las naves de Tarsis(Z)
Y contra toda obra de arte preciada.
17 Será humillado el orgullo del hombre
Y abatido el orgullo de los hombres.
Solo el Señor será exaltado en aquel día,
18 Y los ídolos desaparecerán por completo(AA).
19 Los hombres se meterán en las cuevas de las rocas
Y en las hendiduras de la tierra[g],
Ante el terror del Señor
Y ante el esplendor de Su majestad(AB),
Cuando Él se levante para hacer temblar la tierra(AC).
20 Aquel día el hombre arrojará a los topos y a los murciélagos(AD),
Sus ídolos de plata y sus ídolos de oro(AE)
Que se había hecho para adorarlos.
21 Y se meterá[h] en las cavernas de las rocas y en las hendiduras de las peñas,
Ante el terror del Señor y ante el esplendor de Su majestad,
Cuando Él se levante para hacer temblar la tierra(AF).
22 Dejen de considerar al[i] hombre(AG), cuyo soplo de vida está en su nariz.
Pues ¿en qué ha de ser él estimado(AH)?
Isaiah 2
New International Version
The Mountain of the Lord(A)
2 This is what Isaiah son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem:(B)
2 In the last days(C)
the mountain(D) of the Lord’s temple will be established
as the highest of the mountains;(E)
it will be exalted(F) above the hills,
and all nations will stream to it.(G)
3 Many peoples(H) will come and say,
“Come, let us go(I) up to the mountain(J) of the Lord,
to the temple of the God of Jacob.
He will teach us his ways,
so that we may walk in his paths.”
The law(K) will go out from Zion,
the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.(L)
4 He will judge(M) between the nations
and will settle disputes(N) for many peoples.
They will beat their swords into plowshares
and their spears into pruning hooks.(O)
Nation will not take up sword against nation,(P)
nor will they train for war anymore.
The Day of the Lord
6 You, Lord, have abandoned(S) your people,
the descendants of Jacob.(T)
They are full of superstitions from the East;
they practice divination(U) like the Philistines(V)
and embrace(W) pagan customs.(X)
7 Their land is full of silver and gold;(Y)
there is no end to their treasures.(Z)
Their land is full of horses;(AA)
there is no end to their chariots.(AB)
8 Their land is full of idols;(AC)
they bow down(AD) to the work of their hands,(AE)
to what their fingers(AF) have made.
9 So people will be brought low(AG)
and everyone humbled(AH)—
do not forgive them.[a](AI)
10 Go into the rocks, hide(AJ) in the ground
from the fearful presence of the Lord
and the splendor of his majesty!(AK)
11 The eyes of the arrogant(AL) will be humbled(AM)
and human pride(AN) brought low;(AO)
the Lord alone will be exalted(AP) in that day.(AQ)
12 The Lord Almighty has a day(AR) in store
for all the proud(AS) and lofty,(AT)
for all that is exalted(AU)
(and they will be humbled),(AV)
13 for all the cedars of Lebanon,(AW) tall and lofty,(AX)
and all the oaks of Bashan,(AY)
14 for all the towering mountains
and all the high hills,(AZ)
15 for every lofty tower(BA)
and every fortified wall,(BB)
16 for every trading ship[b](BC)
and every stately vessel.
17 The arrogance of man will be brought low(BD)
and human pride humbled;(BE)
the Lord alone will be exalted in that day,(BF)
18 and the idols(BG) will totally disappear.(BH)
19 People will flee to caves(BI) in the rocks
and to holes in the ground(BJ)
from the fearful presence(BK) of the Lord
and the splendor of his majesty,(BL)
when he rises to shake the earth.(BM)
20 In that day(BN) people will throw away
to the moles and bats(BO)
their idols of silver and idols of gold,(BP)
which they made to worship.(BQ)
21 They will flee to caverns in the rocks(BR)
and to the overhanging crags
from the fearful presence of the Lord
and the splendor of his majesty,(BS)
when he rises(BT) to shake the earth.(BU)
