Isaiah 2:6-9
Legacy Standard Bible
6 For You have (A)abandoned Your people, the house of Jacob,
Because they are filled with influences from the east,
And they are soothsayers (B)like the Philistines,
And they (C)strike bargains with the children of foreigners.
7 Their land has also been filled with silver and gold,
And there is no end to their treasures;
Their land has also been filled with (D)horses,
And there is no end to their chariots.
8 Their land has also been (E)filled with idols;
They worship the (F)work of their hands,
That which their fingers have made.
9 So (G)the common man has been bowed down,
And the man of importance has been made low,
But (H)do not forgive them.
Isaiah 2:6-9
International Standard Version
6 For you have rejected your people,
the house of Jacob,
because they are filled with practices learned[a] from the East
and they are fortune-tellers like the Philistines.
They cut deals[b] with foreigners.[c]
7 Their land is filled with silver and gold,
and there is no end to their treasures;
their land is filled with horses,
and there is no end to their chariots.
8 Their land is filled with idols;
they bow down to the work of their hands,
to what their own fingers have made.
