Isaiah 2:2-9 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

2. In the last days the mountain of the Lord’s house will be establishedat the top of the mountainsand will be raised above the hills.All nations will stream to it,

3. and many peoples will come and say,“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us about His waysso that we may walk in His paths.”For instruction will go out of Zionand the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

4. He will settle disputes among the nationsand provide arbitration for many peoples.They will turn their swords into plowsand their spears into pruning knives. Nations will not take up the sword against other nations,and they will never again train for war.

5. House of Jacob,come and let us walk in the Lord’s light.

6. For You have abandoned Your people,the house of Jacob,because they are full of divination from the Eastand of fortune-tellers like the Philistines. They are in league with foreigners.

7. Their land is full of silver and gold,and there is no limit to their treasures;their land is full of horses,and there is no limit to their chariots.

8. Their land is full of idols; they bow down to the work of their hands,to what their fingers have made.

9. So humanity is brought low,and man is humbled.Do not forgive them!
