1. Isaiah son of Amoz saw this message about Judah and Jerusalem.
1. The word H1697 that H834 Isaiah H3470 the son H1121 of Amoz H531 saw H2372 concerning H5921 Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 .
2. In the last days the mountain of the Lord's Temple will be on the highest of all mountains. It will be raised higher than the hills. There will be a steady stream of people from all nations going there.
2. And it shall come to pass H1961 in the last H319 days H3117 , that the mountain H2022 of the LORD H3068 's house H1004 shall be H1961 established H3559 in the top H7218 of the mountains H2022 , and shall be exalted H5375 above the hills H4480 H1389 ; and all H3605 nations H1471 shall flow H5102 unto H413 it.
3. People from many places will go there and say, "Come, let's go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the Temple of the God of Jacob. Then God will teach us his way of living, and we will follow him." His teaching, the Lord's message, will begin in Jerusalem on Mount Zion and will go out to all the world.
3. And many H7227 people H5971 shall go H1980 and say H559 , Come H1980 ye , and let us go up H5927 to H413 the mountain H2022 of the LORD H3068 , to H413 the house H1004 of the God H430 of Jacob H3290 ; and he will teach H3384 us of his ways H4480 H1870 , and we will walk H1980 in his paths H734 : for H3588 out of Zion H4480 H6726 shall go forth H3318 the law H8451 , and the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 from Jerusalem H4480 H3389 .
4. Then God will act as judge to end arguments between nations. He will decide what is right for people from many lands. They will stop using their weapons for war. They will hammer their swords into plows and use their spears to make tools for harvesting. All fighting between nations will end. They will never again train for war.
4. And he shall judge H8199 among H996 the nations H1471 , and shall rebuke H3198 many H7227 people H5971 : and they shall beat H3807 their swords H2719 into plowshares H855 , and their spears H2595 into pruning hooks H4211 : nation H1471 shall not H3808 lift up H5375 sword H2719 against H413 nation H1471 , neither H3808 shall they learn H3925 war H4421 any more H5750 .
5. Family of Jacob, let us follow the Lord.
5. O house H1004 of Jacob H3290 , come H1980 ye , and let us walk H1980 in the light H216 of the LORD H3068 .
6. Family of Jacob, you have abandoned your people. This is clear because they have been filled with bad influences from the East, and now your people try to tell the future like the Philistines. They have completely accepted those strange ideas.
6. Therefore H3588 thou hast forsaken H5203 thy people H5971 the house H1004 of Jacob H3290 , because H3588 they be replenished H4390 from the east H4480 H6924 , and are soothsayers H6049 like the Philistines H6430 , and they please themselves H5606 in the children H3206 of strangers H5237 .
7. Jacob's land has been filled with silver and gold from other places. There are many treasures there. His land has been filled with horses and many chariots.
7. Their land H776 also is full H4390 of silver H3701 and gold H2091 , neither H369 is there any end H7097 of their treasures H214 ; their land H776 is also full H4390 of horses H5483 , neither H369 is there any end H7097 of their chariots H4818 :
8. His land is full of gods that the people bow down to worship. They made these idols themselves.
8. Their land H776 also is full H4390 of idols H457 ; they worship H7812 the work H4639 of their own hands H3027 , that which H834 their own fingers H676 have made H6213 :
9. The people have become worse and worse. They have become very low, and you leaders did nothing to lift them up!
9. And the mean man H120 boweth down H7817 , and the great man H376 humbleth H8213 himself : therefore forgive H5375 them not H408 .
10. You should be afraid of the Lord! Go hide in the dirt and behind the rocks. Hide from his glorious power!
10. Enter H935 into the rock H6697 , and hide H2934 thee in the dust H6083 , for H4480 H6440 fear H6343 of the LORD H3068 , and for the glory H4480 H1926 of his majesty H1347 .
11. Proud people will stop being proud. They will bow down to the ground with shame, and only the Lord will still stand high.
11. The lofty H1365 looks H5869 of man H120 shall be humbled H8213 , and the haughtiness H7312 of men H376 shall be bowed down H7817 , and the LORD H3068 alone H905 shall be exalted H7682 in that H1931 day H3117 .
12. The Lord All-Powerful has a special day planned when he will punish the proud and boastful people. They will be brought down.
12. For H3588 the day H3117 of the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 shall be upon H5921 every H3605 one that is proud H1343 and lofty H7311 , and upon H5921 every H3605 one that is lifted up H5375 ; and he shall be brought low H8213 :
13. They might be like the tall cedar trees from Lebanon or the great oak trees from Bashan, but they will be cut down.
13. And upon H5921 all H3605 the cedars H730 of Lebanon H3844 , that are high H7311 and lifted up H5375 , and upon H5921 all H3605 the oaks H437 of Bashan H1316 ,
14. They might be like the tall mountains and high hills
14. And upon H5921 all H3605 the high H7311 mountains H2022 , and upon H5921 all H3605 the hills H1389 that are lifted up H5375 ,
15. or like the tall towers and high walls, but they will be brought down.
15. And upon H5921 every H3605 high H1364 tower H4026 , and upon H5921 every H3605 fenced H1219 wall H2346 ,
16. They might be like great ships from Tarshish, filled with such wonderful cargo, but they will be brought down.
16. And upon H5921 all H3605 the ships H591 of Tarshish H8659 , and upon H5921 all H3605 pleasant H2532 pictures H7914 .
17. At that time those proud people will fall. They will bow low to the ground, and only the Lord will stand high.
17. And the loftiness H1365 of man H120 shall be bowed down H7817 , and the haughtiness H7312 of men H376 shall be made low H8213 : and the LORD H3068 alone H905 shall be exalted H7682 in that H1931 day H3117 .
18. All the idols will be gone.
18. And the idols H457 he shall utterly H3632 abolish H2498 .
19. People will go into the holes in the ground and the cracks in the rocks because they fear the Lord and his great power as he stands to shake the earth.
19. And they shall go H935 into the holes H4631 of the rocks H6697 , and into the caves H4247 of the earth H6083 , for H4480 H6440 fear H6343 of the LORD H3068 , and for the glory H4480 H1926 of his majesty H1347 , when he ariseth H6965 to shake terribly H6206 the earth H776 .
20. At that time people will throw away their idols they made from gold and silver. They made these statues to worship, but they will throw them into holes in the ground where bats and moles live.
20. In that H1931 day H3117 a man H120 shall cast H7993 H853 his idols H457 of silver H3701 , and his idols H457 of gold H2091 , which H834 they made H6213 each one for himself to worship H7812 , to the moles H2661 H6512 and to the bats H5847 ;
21. They will go down into cracks in the rocks and boulders because they are afraid of the Lord and his glorious power as he stands to shake the earth.
21. To go H935 into the clefts H5366 of the rocks H6697 , and into the tops H5585 of the ragged rocks H5553 , for H4480 H6440 fear H6343 of the LORD H3068 , and for the glory H4480 H1926 of his majesty H1347 , when he ariseth H6965 to shake terribly H6206 the earth H776 .
22. Stop trusting other people to save you. Do not think too highly of them; they are only humans who have not stopped breathing yet.
22. Cease H2308 ye from H4480 man H120 , whose H834 breath H5397 is in his nostrils H639 : for H3588 wherein H4100 is he H1931 to be accounted H2803 of?
