Isaiah 2:1--4:6

2:1

The word
<01697>

that Isaiah
<03470>

the son
<01121>

of Amoz
<0531>

saw
<02372> (8804)

concerning Judah
<03063>

and Jerusalem
<03389>_.

2:2

And it shall come to pass in the last
<0319>

days
<03117>_,

[that] the mountain
<02022>

of the LORD'S
<03068>

house
<01004>

shall be established
<03559> (8737)

in the top
<07218>

of the mountains
<02022>_,

and shall be exalted
<05375> (8737)

above the hills
<01389>_;

and all nations
<01471>

shall flow
<05102> (8804)

unto it. {established: or, prepared}

2:3

And many
<07227>

people
<05971>

shall go
<01980> (8804)

and say
<0559> (8804)_,

Come
<03212> (8798)

ye, and let us go up
<05927> (8799)

to the mountain
<02022>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

to the house
<01004>

of the God
<0430>

of Jacob
<03290>_;

and he will teach
<03384> (8686)

us of his ways
<01870>_,

and we will walk
<03212> (8799)

in his paths
<0734>_:

for out of Zion
<06726>

shall go forth
<03318> (8799)

the law
<08451>_,

and the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

from Jerusalem
<03389>_.

2:4

And he shall judge
<08199> (8804)

among the nations
<01471>_,

and shall rebuke
<03198> (8689)

many
<07227>

people
<05971>_:

and they shall beat
<03807> (8765)

their swords
<02719>

into plowshares
<0855>_,

and their spears
<02595>

into pruninghooks
<04211>_:

nation
<01471>

shall not lift up
<05375> (8799)

sword
<02719>

against nation
<01471>_,

neither shall they learn
<03925> (8799)

war
<04421>

any more. {pruninghooks: or, scythes}

2:5

O house
<01004>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

come
<03212> (8798)

ye, and let us walk
<03212> (8799)

in the light
<0216>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

2:6

Therefore thou hast forsaken
<05203> (8804)

thy people
<05971>

the house
<01004>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

because they be replenished
<04390> (8804)

from the east
<06924>_,

and [are] soothsayers
<06049> (8781)

like the Philistines
<06430>_,

and they please
<05606> (8686)

themselves in the children
<03206>

of strangers
<05237>_.

{from...: or, more than the} {please...: or, abound with the}

2:7

Their land
<0776>

also is full
<04390> (8735)

of silver
<03701>

and gold
<02091>_,

neither [is there any] end
<07097>

of their treasures
<0214>_;

their land
<0776>

is also full
<04390> (8735)

of horses
<05483>_,

neither [is there any] end
<07097>

of their chariots
<04818>_:

2:8

Their land
<0776>

also is full
<04390> (8735)

of idols
<0457>_;

they worship
<07812> (8691)

the work
<04639>

of their own hands
<03027>_,

that which their own fingers
<0676>

have made
<06213> (8804)_:

2:9

And the mean man
<0120>

boweth down
<07817> (8735)_,

and the great man
<0376>

humbleth
<08213> (8799)

himself: therefore forgive
<05375> (8799)

them not.

2:10

Enter
<0935> (8798)

into the rock
<06697>_,

and hide
<02934> (8734)

thee in the dust
<06083>_,

for
<06440>

fear
<06343>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and for the glory
<01926>

of his majesty
<01347>_.

2:11

The lofty
<01365>

looks
<05869>

of man
<0120>

shall be humbled
<08213> (8804)_,

and the haughtiness
<07312>

of men
<0582>

shall be bowed down
<07817> (8804)_,

and the LORD
<03068>

alone shall be exalted
<07682> (8738)

in that day
<03117>_.

2:12

For the day
<03117>

of the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

[shall be] upon every [one that is] proud
<01343>

and lofty
<07311> (8802)_,

and upon every [one that is] lifted up
<05375> (8737)_;

and he shall be brought low
<08213> (8804)_:

2:13

And upon all the cedars
<0730>

of Lebanon
<03844>_,

[that are] high
<07311> (8802)

and lifted up
<05375> (8737)_,

and upon all the oaks
<0437>

of Bashan
<01316>_,

2:14

And upon all the high
<07311> (8802)

mountains
<02022>_,

and upon all the hills
<01389>

[that are] lifted up
<05375> (8737)_,

2:15

And upon every high
<01364>

tower
<04026>_,

and upon every fenced
<01219> (8803)

wall
<02346>_,

2:16

And upon all the ships
<0591>

of Tarshish
<08659>_,

and upon all pleasant
<02532>

pictures
<07914>_.

{pleasant...: Heb. pictures of desire}

2:17

And the loftiness
<01365>

of man
<0120>

shall be bowed down
<07817> (8804)_,

and the haughtiness
<07312>

of men
<0582>

shall be made low
<08213> (8804)_:

and the LORD
<03068>

alone shall be exalted
<07682> (8738)

in that day
<03117>_.

2:18

And the idols
<0457>

he shall utterly
<03632>

abolish
<02498> (8799)_.

{he...: or, shall utterly pass away}

2:19

And they shall go
<0935> (8804)

into the holes
<04631>

of the rocks
<06697>_,

and into the caves
<04247>

of the earth
<06083>_,

for
<06440>

fear
<06343>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and for the glory
<01926>

of his majesty
<01347>_,

when he ariseth
<06965> (8800)

to shake terribly
<06206> (8800)

the earth
<0776>_.

{of the earth: Heb. of the dust}

2:20

In that day
<03117>

a man
<0120>

shall cast
<07993> (8686)

his idols
<0457>

of silver
<03701>_,

and his idols
<0457>

of gold
<02091>_,

which they made [each one] for himself
<06213> (8804)

to worship
<07812> (8692)_,

to the moles
<02661> <06512>

and to the bats
<05847>_;

{his idols of silver...: Heb. the idols of his silver, etc} {each...: or, for him}

2:21

To go
<0935> (8800)

into the clefts
<05366>

of the rocks
<06697>_,

and into the tops
<05585>

of the ragged rocks
<05553>_,

for
<06440>

fear
<06343>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and for the glory
<01926>

of his majesty
<01347>_,

when he ariseth
<06965> (8800)

to shake terribly
<06206> (8800)

the earth
<0776>_.

2:22

Cease
<02308> (8798)

ye from man
<0120>_,

whose breath
<05397>

[is] in his nostrils
<0639>_:

for wherein is he to be accounted of
<02803> (8737)_?

3:1

For, behold, the Lord
<0113>_,

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

doth take away
<05493> (8688)

from Jerusalem
<03389>

and from Judah
<03063>

the stay
<04937>

and the staff
<04938>_,

the whole stay
<04937>

of bread
<03899>_,

and the whole
<03605>

stay
<04937>

of water
<04325>_,

3:2

The mighty man
<01368>_,

and the man
<0376>

of war
<04421>_,

the judge
<08199> (8802)_,

and the prophet
<05030>_,

and the prudent
<07080> (8802)_,

and the ancient
<02205>_,

3:3

The captain
<08269>

of fifty
<02572>_,

and the honourable
<05375> (8803)

man
<06440>_,

and the counsellor
<03289> (8802)_,

and the cunning
<02450>

artificer
<02791>_,

and the eloquent
<0995> (8737)

orator
<03908>_.

{the honourable...: Heb. a man eminent in countenance} {eloquent...: or, skilful of speech}

3:4

And I will give
<05414> (8804)

children
<05288>

[to be] their princes
<08269>_,

and babes
<08586>

shall rule
<04910> (8799)

over them.

3:5

And the people
<05971>

shall be oppressed
<05065> (8738)_,

every one
<0376>

by another
<0376>_,

and every one
<0376>

by his neighbour
<07453>_:

the child
<05288>

shall behave himself proudly
<07292> (8799)

against the ancient
<02205>_,

and the base
<07034> (8737)

against the honourable
<03513> (8737)_.

3:6

When a man
<0376>

shall take hold
<08610> (8799)

of his brother
<0251>

of the house
<01004>

of his father
<01>_,

[saying], Thou hast clothing
<08071>_,

be thou our ruler
<07101>_,

and [let] this ruin
<04384>

[be] under thy hand
<03027>_:

3:7

In that day
<03117>

shall he swear
<05375> (8799)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

I will not be an healer
<02280> (8802)_;

for in my house
<01004>

[is] neither bread
<03899>

nor clothing
<08071>_:

make
<07760> (8799)

me not a ruler
<07101>

of the people
<05971>_.

{swear: Heb. lift up the hand} {healer: Heb. binder up}

3:8

For Jerusalem
<03389>

is ruined
<03782> (8804)_,

and Judah
<03063>

is fallen
<05307> (8804)_:

because their tongue
<03956>

and their doings
<04611>

[are] against the LORD
<03068>_,

to provoke
<04784> (8687)

the eyes
<05869>

of his glory
<03519>_.

3:9

The shew
<01971>

of their countenance
<06440>

doth witness against them
<06030> (8804)_;

and they declare
<05046> (8689)

their sin
<02403>

as Sodom
<05467>_,

they hide
<03582> (8765)

[it] not. Woe
<0188>

unto their soul
<05315>_!

for they have rewarded
<01580> (8804)

evil
<07451>

unto themselves.

3:10

Say
<0559> (8798)

ye to the righteous
<06662>_,

that [it shall be] well
<02896>

[with him]: for they shall eat
<0398> (8799)

the fruit
<06529>

of their doings
<04611>_.

3:11

Woe
<0188>

unto the wicked
<07563>_!

[it shall be] ill
<07451>

[with him]: for the reward
<01576>

of his hands
<03027>

shall be given
<06213> (8735)

him. {given...: Heb. done to him}

3:12

[As for] my people
<05971>_,

children
<05953> (8781)

[are] their oppressors
<05065> (8802)_,

and women
<0802>

rule
<04910> (8804)

over them. O my people
<05971>_,

they which lead
<0833> (8764)

thee cause [thee] to err
<08582> (8688)_,

and destroy
<01104> (8765)

the way
<01870>

of thy paths
<0734>_.

{lead...: or, call thee blessed} {destroy: Heb. swallow up}

3:13

The LORD
<03068>

standeth up
<05324> (8737)

to plead
<07378> (8800)_,

and standeth
<05975> (8802)

to judge
<01777> (8800)

the people
<05971>_.

3:14

The LORD
<03068>

will enter
<0935> (8799)

into judgment
<04941>

with the ancients
<02205>

of his people
<05971>_,

and the princes
<08269>

thereof: for ye have eaten up
<01197> (8765)

the vineyard
<03754>_;

the spoil
<01500>

of the poor
<06041>

[is] in your houses
<01004>_.

{eaten: or, burnt}

3:15

What mean ye [that] ye beat
<01792> (0)

my people
<05971>

to pieces
<01792> (8762)_,

and grind
<02912> (8799)

the faces
<06440>

of the poor
<06041>_?

saith
<05002> (8803)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

of hosts
<06635>_.

3:16

Moreover the LORD
<03068>

saith
<0559> (8799)_,

Because
<03282>

the daughters
<01323>

of Zion
<06726>

are haughty
<01361> (8804)_,

and walk
<03212> (8799)

with stretched forth
<05186> (8803)

necks
<01627>

and wanton
<08265> (8764)

eyes
<05869>_,

walking
<01980> (8800)

and mincing
<02952> (8800)

[as] they go
<03212> (8799)_,

and making a tinkling
<05913> (8762)

with their feet
<07272>_:

{wanton...: Heb. deceiving with their eyes} {mincing: or, tripping nicely}

3:17

Therefore the Lord
<0136>

will smite with a scab
<05596> (8765)

the crown of the head
<06936>

of the daughters
<01323>

of Zion
<06726>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

will discover
<06168> (8762)

their secret parts
<06596>_.

{discover: Heb. make naked}

3:18

In that day
<03117>

the Lord
<0136>

will take away
<05493> (8686)

the bravery
<08597>

of [their] tinkling ornaments
<05914>

[about their feet], and [their] cauls
<07636>_,

and [their] round tires like the moon
<07720>_,

{cauls: or, networks}

3:19

The chains
<05188>_,

and the bracelets
<08285>_,

and the mufflers
<07479>_,

{chains: or, sweet balls} {mufflers: or, spangled ornaments}

3:20

The bonnets
<06287>_,

and the ornaments of the legs
<06807>_,

and the headbands
<07196>_,

and the tablets
<05315> <01004>_,

and the earrings
<03908>_,

{tablets: Heb. houses of the soul}

3:21

The rings
<02885>_,

and nose
<0639>

jewels
<05141>_,

3:22

The changeable suits of apparel
<04254>_,

and the mantles
<04595>_,

and the wimples
<04304>_,

and the crisping pins
<02754>_,

3:23

The glasses
<01549>_,

and the fine linen
<05466>_,

and the hoods
<06797>_,

and the vails
<07289>_.

3:24

And it shall come to pass, [that] instead of sweet smell
<01314>

there shall be stink
<04716>_;

and instead of a girdle
<02290>

a rent
<05364>_;

and instead of well set
<04639>

hair
<04748>

baldness
<07144>_;

and instead of a stomacher
<06614>

a girding
<04228>

of sackcloth
<08242>_;

[and] burning
<03587>

instead of beauty
<03308>_.

3:25

Thy men
<04962>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>_,

and thy mighty
<01369>

in the war
<04421>_.

{mighty: Heb. might}

3:26

And her gates
<06607>

shall lament
<0578> (8804)

and mourn
<056> (8804)_;

and she [being] desolate
<05352> (8738)

shall sit
<03427> (8799)

upon the ground
<0776>_.

{desolate: or, emptied: Heb. cleansed}

4:1

And in that day
<03117>

seven
<07651>

women
<0802>

shall take hold
<02388> (8689)

of one
<0259>

man
<0376>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

We will eat
<0398> (8799)

our own bread
<03899>_,

and wear
<03847> (8799)

our own apparel
<08071>_:

only let us be called
<07121> (8735)

by thy name
<08034>_,

to take away
<0622> (8798)

our reproach
<02781>_.

{let...: Heb. let thy name be called upon us} {to take...: or, take thou away}

4:2

In that day
<03117>

shall the branch
<06780>

of the LORD
<03068>

be beautiful
<06643>

and glorious
<03519>_,

and the fruit
<06529>

of the earth
<0776>

[shall be] excellent
<01347>

and comely for
<08597>

them that are escaped
<06413>

of Israel
<03478>_.

{beautiful...: Heb. beauty and glory} {them...: Heb. the escaping}

4:3

And it shall come to pass, [that he that is] left
<07604> (8737)

in Zion
<06726>_,

and [he that] remaineth
<03498> (8737)

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

shall be called
<0559> (8735)

holy
<06918>_,

[even] every one that is written
<03789> (8803)

among the living
<02416>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_:

{among...: or, to life}

4:4

When the Lord
<0136>

shall have washed away
<07364> (8804)

the filth
<06675>

of the daughters
<01323>

of Zion
<06726>_,

and shall have purged
<01740> (8686)

the blood
<01818>

of Jerusalem
<03389>

from the midst
<07130>

thereof by the spirit
<07307>

of judgment
<04941>_,

and by the spirit
<07307>

of burning
<01197> (8763)_.

4:5

And the LORD
<03068>

will create
<01254> (8804)

upon every dwelling place
<04349>

of mount
<02022>

Zion
<06726>_,

and upon her assemblies
<04744>_,

a cloud
<06051>

and smoke
<06227>

by day
<03119>_,

and the shining
<05051>

of a flaming
