II. 1 The word that came from the Lord to Isaiah the son of Amoz concerning Judah and concerning Jerusalem

2 For in the last days shall the mountain of the Lord be clearly seen, and the house of God upon the top of the mountains, and it shall be uplifted above the hills, and all the nations shall come unto it.

3 And many nations shall go, and shall say, Come, let us go up into the mountain of the Lord, and into the house of the God of Jacob; and he will proclaim to us his way, and we will walk in it. For out of Zion shall a law come forth, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

4 And he shall judge between the nations, and shall convince much people; and they shall beat their Swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; and nation shall not any more take a sword against nation, and they shall not learn to war any more.

5 And now, Ο house of Jacob, come, let us walk by the light of the Lord.

6 For he hath given up his people, the house of Israel; because their country is filled with omens, as at the first, like the land of the Strangers, and many strange children are born to them.

7 For their country is filled with silver and gold, and there is no number to their treasures; and their land is filled with horses, and there is no number to their chariots:

8 And the land is filled with abominations, the works of their hands, and they worship things which their own fingers have made:

9 And a mean man boweth down, and a great man is humbled, and I will not let them be.

10 And now, enter into the rocks, and hide yourselves in the earth, from before the fear of the Lord, and from the glory of his strength, when he ariseth to shatter the earth.

11 For the eyes of the Lord (are) lifted high, but man (is) humble: and the uplifting of men shall be humbled, and the Lord alone shall be uplifted in that day.

12 For there is a day of the Lord of Hosts against every worker of pride, and overweening one, and against every one that is high and lofty, and they shall be humbled:

13 And against every cedar of Lebanon, of them that are high and lofty, and against every oak-tree of Bashan,

14 And against every mountain, and against every high hill,

15 And against every high tower, and against every high wall,

16 And against every ship of the sea, and against every sight of the beauty of ships:

17 And every man shall be humbled. and the uplifting of men shall fall, and the Lord alone shall be uplifted in that day.

18. And all the works of men's hands shall they hide away,

19 Carrying them into the caves, and into the rents of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the fear of the Lord, and from the glory of his strength, when he ariseth to shatter the earth.

20 In that day shall a man cast out his abominations, the silver and the golden, which he made to worship, to the vain ones and to the bats;
