Isaiah 2
1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
| הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר חָזָה יְשַֽׁעְיָהוּ בֶּן־אָמוֹץ עַל־יְהוּדָה וִירֽוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃ |
2 And it shall come to pass in the latter days, that the mountain of Jehovah’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
| וְהָיָה ׀ בְּאַחֲרִית הַיָּמִים נָכוֹן יִֽהְיֶה הַר בֵּית־יְהֹוָה בְּרֹאשׁ הֶהָרִים וְנִשָּׂא מִגְּבָעוֹת וְנָהֲרוּ אֵלָיו כׇּל־הַגּוֹיִֽם׃ |
3 And many peoples shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
| וְֽהָלְכוּ עַמִּים רַבִּים וְאָֽמְרוּ לְכוּ ׀ וְנַעֲלֶה אֶל־הַר־יְהֹוָה אֶל־בֵּית אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב וְיֹרֵנוּ מִדְּרָכָיו וְנֵלְכָה בְּאֹרְחֹתָיו כִּי מִצִּיּוֹן תֵּצֵא תוֹרָה וּדְבַר־יְהֹוָה מִירוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃ |
4 And he will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
| וְשָׁפַט בֵּין הַגּוֹיִם וְהוֹכִיחַ לְעַמִּים רַבִּים וְכִתְּתוּ חַרְבוֹתָם לְאִתִּים וַחֲנִיתֽוֹתֵיהֶם לְמַזְמֵרוֹת לֹא־יִשָּׂא גוֹי אֶל־גּוֹי חֶרֶב וְלֹֽא־יִלְמְדוּ עוֹד מִלְחָמָֽה׃ |
5 O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of Jehovah.
| בֵּית יַעֲקֹב לְכוּ וְנֵלְכָה בְּאוֹר יְהֹוָֽה׃ |
6 For thou hast forsaken thy people the house of Jacob, because they are filled [with customs] from the east, and [are] soothsayers like the Philistines, and they strike hands with the children of foreigners.
| כִּי נָטַשְׁתָּה עַמְּךָ בֵּית יַעֲקֹב כִּי מָֽלְאוּ מִקֶּדֶם וְעֹנְנִים כַּפְּלִשְׁתִּים וּבְיַלְדֵי נׇכְרִים יַשְׂפִּֽיקוּ׃ |
7 And their land is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures; their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
| וַתִּמָּלֵא אַרְצוֹ כֶּסֶף וְזָהָב וְאֵין קֵצֶה לְאֹצְרֹתָיו וַתִּמָּלֵא אַרְצוֹ סוּסִים וְאֵין קֵצֶה לְמַרְכְּבֹתָֽיו׃ |
8 Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.
| וַתִּמָּלֵא אַרְצוֹ אֱלִילִים לְמַעֲשֵׂה יָדָיו יִֽשְׁתַּחֲווּ לַאֲשֶׁר עָשׂוּ אֶצְבְּעֹתָֽיו׃ |
9 And the mean man is bowed down, and the great man is brought low: therefore forgive them not.
| וַיִּשַּׁח אָדָם וַיִּשְׁפַּל־אִישׁ וְאַל־תִּשָּׂא לָהֶֽם׃ |
10 Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty.
| בּוֹא בַצּוּר וְהִטָּמֵן בֶּעָפָר מִפְּנֵי פַּחַד יְהֹוָה וּמֵהֲדַר גְּאֹנֽוֹ׃ |
11 The lofty looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
| עֵינֵי גַּבְהוּת אָדָם שָׁפֵל וְשַׁח רוּם אֲנָשִׁים וְנִשְׂגַּב יְהֹוָה לְבַדּוֹ בַּיּוֹם הַהֽוּא׃ |
12 For there shall be a day of Jehovah of hosts upon all that is proud and haughty, and upon all that is lifted up; and it shall be brought low;
| כִּי יוֹם לַיהֹוָה צְבָאוֹת עַל כׇּל־גֵּאֶה וָרָם וְעַל כׇּל־נִשָּׂא וְשָׁפֵֽל׃ |
13 and upon all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan,
| וְעַל כׇּל־אַרְזֵי הַלְּבָנוֹן הָרָמִים וְהַנִּשָּׂאִים וְעַל כׇּל־אַלּוֹנֵי הַבָּשָֽׁן׃ |
14 and upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up,
| וְעַל כׇּל־הֶהָרִים הָרָמִים וְעַל כׇּל־הַגְּבָעוֹת הַנִּשָּׂאֽוֹת׃ |
15 and upon every lofty tower, and upon every fortified wall,
| וְעַל כׇּל־מִגְדָּל גָּבֹהַּ וְעַל כׇּל־חוֹמָה בְצוּרָֽה׃ |
16 and upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant imagery.
| וְעַל כׇּל־אֳנִיּוֹת תַּרְשִׁישׁ וְעַל כׇּל־שְׂכִיּוֹת הַחֶמְדָּֽה׃ |
17 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
| וְשַׁח גַּבְהוּת הָאָדָם וְשָׁפֵל רוּם אֲנָשִׁים וְנִשְׂגַּב יְהֹוָה לְבַדּוֹ בַּיּוֹם הַהֽוּא׃ |
18 And the idols shall utterly pass away.
| וְהָאֱלִילִים כָּלִיל יַחֲלֹֽף׃ |
19 And men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake mightily the earth.
| וּבָאוּ בִּמְעָרוֹת צֻרִים וּבִמְחִלּוֹת עָפָר מִפְּנֵי פַּחַד יְהֹוָה וּמֵהֲדַר גְּאוֹנוֹ בְּקוּמוֹ לַעֲרֹץ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
20 In that day men shall cast away their idols of silver, and their idols of gold, which have been made for them to worship, to the moles and to the bats;
| בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא יַשְׁלִיךְ הָאָדָם אֵת אֱלִילֵי כַסְפּוֹ וְאֵת אֱלִילֵי זְהָבוֹ אֲשֶׁר עָֽשׂוּ־לוֹ לְהִֽשְׁתַּחֲוֺת לַחְפֹּר פֵּרוֹת וְלָעֲטַלֵּפִֽים׃ |
21 to go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake mightily the earth.
| לָבוֹא בְּנִקְרוֹת הַצֻּרִים וּבִסְעִפֵי הַסְּלָעִים מִפְּנֵי פַּחַד יְהֹוָה וּמֵהֲדַר גְּאוֹנוֹ בְּקוּמוֹ לַעֲרֹץ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
22 Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for wherein is he to be accounted of?
| חִדְלוּ לָכֶם מִן־הָאָדָם אֲשֶׁר נְשָׁמָה בְּאַפּוֹ כִּֽי־בַמֶּה נֶחְשָׁב הֽוּא׃ |
