Isaiah 2
1 This is what Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
| הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר חָזָה יְשַֽׁעְיָהוּ בֶּן־אָמוֹץ עַל־יְהוּדָה וִירֽוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃ |
2 It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of the LORD's house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be raised above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it.
| וְהָיָה ׀ בְּאַחֲרִית הַיָּמִים נָכוֹן יִֽהְיֶה הַר בֵּית־יְהֹוָה בְּרֹאשׁ הֶהָרִים וְנִשָּׂא מִגְּבָעוֹת וְנָהֲרוּ אֵלָיו כׇּל־הַגּוֹיִֽם׃ |
3 And many peoples shall come and say, "Come, let's go up to the mountain of the LORD, and 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 the law shall go forth, and the word of the LORD 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 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 House of Jacob, come, and let us walk in the light of the LORD.
| בֵּית יַעֲקֹב לְכוּ וְנֵלְכָה בְּאוֹר יְהֹוָֽה׃ |
6 For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled from the east, with those who practice divination like the Philistines, and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.
| כִּי נָטַשְׁתָּה עַמְּךָ בֵּית יַעֲקֹב כִּי מָֽלְאוּ מִקֶּדֶם וְעֹנְנִים כַּפְּלִשְׁתִּים וּבְיַלְדֵי נׇכְרִים יַשְׂפִּֽיקוּ׃ |
7 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 So people bow down, people are low, therefore do not lift them up.
| וַיִּשַּׁח אָדָם וַיִּשְׁפַּל־אִישׁ וְאַל־תִּשָּׂא לָהֶֽם׃ |
10 Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty.
| בּוֹא בַצּוּר וְהִטָּמֵן בֶּעָפָר מִפְּנֵי פַּחַד יְהֹוָה וּמֵהֲדַר גְּאֹנֽוֹ׃ |
11 The proud looks of humankind will be brought low, and the arrogance of people will be brought down; and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.
| עֵינֵי גַּבְהוּת אָדָם שָׁפֵל וְשַׁח רוּם אֲנָשִׁים וְנִשְׂגַּב יְהֹוָה לְבַדּוֹ בַּיּוֹם הַהֽוּא׃ |
12 For there will be a day of the LORD of hosts for all that is proud and haughty, and for all that is lifted up and high; and it shall be brought low:
| כִּי יוֹם לַיהֹוָה צְבָאוֹת עַל כׇּל־גֵּאֶה וָרָם וְעַל כׇּל־נִשָּׂא וְשָׁפֵֽל׃ |
13 For all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, for all the oaks of Bashan,
| וְעַל כׇּל־אַרְזֵי הַלְּבָנוֹן הָרָמִים וְהַנִּשָּׂאִים וְעַל כׇּל־אַלּוֹנֵי הַבָּשָֽׁן׃ |
14 For all the high mountains, for all the hills that are lifted up,
| וְעַל כׇּל־הֶהָרִים הָרָמִים וְעַל כׇּל־הַגְּבָעוֹת הַנִּשָּׂאֽוֹת׃ |
15 For every lofty tower, for every fortified wall,
| וְעַל כׇּל־מִגְדָּל גָּבֹהַּ וְעַל כׇּל־חוֹמָה בְצוּרָֽה׃ |
16 For all the ships of Tarshish, and for all pleasant imagery.
| וְעַל כׇּל־אֳנִיּוֹת תַּרְשִׁישׁ וְעַל כׇּל־שְׂכִיּוֹת הַחֶמְדָּֽה׃ |
17 The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
| וְשַׁח גַּבְהוּת הָאָדָם וְשָׁפֵל רוּם אֲנָשִׁים וְנִשְׂגַּב יְהֹוָה לְבַדּוֹ בַּיּוֹם הַהֽוּא׃ |
18 The idols shall utterly pass away.
| וְהָאֱלִילִים כָּלִיל יַחֲלֹֽף׃ |
19 Men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
| וּבָאוּ בִּמְעָרוֹת צֻרִים וּבִמְחִלּוֹת עָפָר מִפְּנֵי פַּחַד יְהֹוָה וּמֵהֲדַר גְּאוֹנוֹ בְּקוּמוֹ לַעֲרֹץ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
20 In that day, people will cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold to the rodents and to the bats, which have been made for themselves to worship;
| 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 the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
| לָבוֹא בְּנִקְרוֹת הַצֻּרִים וּבִסְעִפֵי הַסְּלָעִים מִפְּנֵי פַּחַד יְהֹוָה וּמֵהֲדַר גְּאוֹנוֹ בְּקוּמוֹ לַעֲרֹץ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
22 Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he?
| חִדְלוּ לָכֶם מִן־הָאָדָם אֲשֶׁר נְשָׁמָה בְּאַפּוֹ כִּֽי־בַמֶּה נֶחְשָׁב הֽוּא׃ |
