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.
They also [a](C)strike bargains with the children of foreigners.
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.
Their land has also been (E)filled with idols;
They worship the (F)work of their hands,
That which their fingers have made.
So (G)the common person has been humbled
And the person of importance has been brought low,
But (H)do not forgive them.

  1. Isaiah 2:6 Lit clap their hands

For the Lord has rejected his people,
    the descendants of Jacob,
because they have filled their land with practices from the East
    and with sorcerers, as the Philistines do.
    They have made alliances with pagans.
Israel is full of silver and gold;
    there is no end to its treasures.
Their land is full of warhorses;
    there is no end to its chariots.
Their land is full of idols;
    the people worship things they have made
    with their own hands.
So now they will be humbled,
    and all will be brought low—
    do not forgive them.
