The Mountain of the Lord(A)

This is what Isaiah son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem:(B)

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)

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)
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.

16 Then the survivors(A) from all the nations that have attacked Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship(B) the King,(C) the Lord Almighty, and to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.(D) 17 If any of the peoples of the earth do not go up to Jerusalem to worship(E) the King, the Lord Almighty, they will have no rain.(F) 18 If the Egyptian people do not go up and take part, they will have no rain. The Lord[a] will bring on them the plague(G) he inflicts on the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.(H) 19 This will be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.(I)

20 On that day holy to the Lord(J) will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, and the cooking pots(K) in the Lord’s house will be like the sacred bowls(L) in front of the altar. 21 Every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be holy(M) to the Lord Almighty, and all who come to sacrifice will take some of the pots and cook in them. And on that day(N) there will no longer be a Canaanite[b](O) in the house(P) of the Lord Almighty.(Q)

A New Heaven and a New Earth

21 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,”[a](A) for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away,(B) and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City,(C) the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,(D) prepared as a bride(E) beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them.(F) They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.(G) ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes.(H) There will be no more death’[b](I) or mourning or crying or pain,(J) for the old order of things has passed away.”(K)

He who was seated on the throne(L) said, “I am making everything new!”(M) Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”(N)

He said to me: “It is done.(O) I am the Alpha and the Omega,(P) the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost(Q) from the spring of the water of life.(R) Those who are victorious(S) will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children.(T) But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars(U)—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur.(V) This is the second death.”(W)
