יְשַׁעְיָהוּ 2

1 הַדָּבָר֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר חָזָ֔ה יְשַֽׁעְיָ֖הוּ בֶּן־אָמֹ֑וץ עַל־יְהוּדָ֖ה וִירוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃

This is the message that was revealed to Isaiah son of Amoz concerning Judah and Jerusalem:

2 וְהָיָ֣ה ׀ בְּאַחֲרִ֣ית הַיָּמִ֗ים נָכֹ֨ון יִֽהְיֶ֜ה הַ֤ר בֵּית־יְהוָה֙ בְּרֹ֣אשׁ הֶהָרִ֔ים וְנִשָּׂ֖א מִגְּבָעֹ֑ות וְנָהֲר֥וּ אֵלָ֖יו כָּל־הַגֹּויִֽם׃

In the last days the mountain of the house of the LORD will be established as the chief of the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and all nations will stream to it.

3 וְֽהָלְכ֞וּ עַמִּ֣ים רַבִּ֗ים וְאָמְרוּ֙ לְכ֣וּ ׀ וְנַעֲלֶ֣ה אֶל־הַר־יְהוָ֗ה אֶל־בֵּית֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יַעֲקֹ֔ב וְיֹרֵ֙נוּ֙ מִדְּרָכָ֔יו וְנֵלְכָ֖ה בְּאֹרְחֹתָ֑יו כִּ֤י מִצִּיֹּון֙ תֵּצֵ֣א תֹורָ֔ה וּדְבַר־יְהוָ֖ה מִירוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃

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 His ways so that we may walk in His paths.” For the law will go forth from Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

4 וְשָׁפַט֙ בֵּ֣ין הַגֹּויִ֔ם וְהֹוכִ֖יחַ לְעַמִּ֣ים רַבִּ֑ים וְכִתְּת֨וּ חַרְבֹותָ֜ם לְאִתִּ֗ים וַחֲנִיתֹֽותֵיהֶם֙ לְמַזְמֵרֹ֔ות לֹא־יִשָּׂ֨א גֹ֤וי אֶל־גֹּוי֙ חֶ֔רֶב וְלֹא־יִלְמְד֥וּ עֹ֖וד מִלְחָמָֽה׃ פ

Then He will judge between the nations and arbitrate for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will no longer take up the sword against nation, nor train anymore for war.

5 בֵּ֖ית יַעֲקֹ֑ב לְכ֥וּ וְנֵלְכָ֖ה בְּאֹ֥ור יְהוָֽה׃

Come, O house of Jacob, let us walk in the light of the LORD.

6 כִּ֣י נָטַ֗שְׁתָּה עַמְּךָ֙ בֵּ֣ית יַעֲקֹ֔ב כִּ֤י מָלְאוּ֙ מִקֶּ֔דֶם וְעֹֽנְנִ֖ים כַּפְּלִשְׁתִּ֑ים וּבְיַלְדֵ֥י נָכְרִ֖ים יַשְׂפִּֽיקוּ׃

For You have abandoned Your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled with influences from the east; they are soothsayers like the Philistines; they strike hands with the children of foreigners.

7 וַתִּמָּלֵ֤א אַרְצֹו֙ כֶּ֣סֶף וְזָהָ֔ב וְאֵ֥ין קֵ֖צֶה לְאֹצְרֹתָ֑יו וַתִּמָּלֵ֤א אַרְצֹו֙ סוּסִ֔ים וְאֵ֥ין קֵ֖צֶה לְמַרְכְּבֹתָֽיו׃

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

8 וַתִּמָּלֵ֥א אַרְצֹ֖ו אֱלִילִ֑ים לְמַעֲשֵׂ֤ה יָדָיו֙ יִֽשְׁתַּחֲו֔וּ לַאֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשׂ֖וּ אֶצְבְּעֹתָֽיו׃

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

9 וַיִּשַּׁ֥ח אָדָ֖ם וַיִּשְׁפַּל־אִ֑ישׁ וְאַל־תִּשָּׂ֖א לָהֶֽם׃

So mankind is brought low, and man is humbled— do not forgive them!

10 בֹּ֣וא בַצּ֔וּר וְהִטָּמֵ֖ן בֶּֽעָפָ֑ר מִפְּנֵי֙ פַּ֣חַד יְהוָ֔ה וּמֵהֲדַ֖ר גְּאֹנֹֽו׃

Go into the rocks and hide in the dust from the terror of the LORD and the splendor of His majesty.

11 עֵינֵ֞י גַּבְה֤וּת אָדָם֙ שָׁפֵ֔ל וְשַׁ֖ח ר֣וּם אֲנָשִׁ֑ים וְנִשְׂגַּ֧ב יְהוָ֛ה לְבַדֹּ֖ו בַּיֹּ֥ום הַהֽוּא׃ ס

The proud look of man will be humbled, and the loftiness of men brought low; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.

12 כִּ֣י יֹ֞ום לַיהוָ֧ה צְבָאֹ֛ות עַ֥ל כָּל־גֵּאֶ֖ה וָרָ֑ם וְעַ֖ל כָּל־נִשָּׂ֥א וְשָׁפֵֽל׃

For the Day of the LORD of Hosts will come against all the proud and lofty, against all that is exalted— it will be humbled—

13 וְעַל֙ כָּל־אַרְזֵ֣י הַלְּבָנֹ֔ון הָרָמִ֖ים וְהַנִּשָּׂאִ֑ים וְעַ֖ל כָּל־אַלֹּונֵ֥י הַבָּשָֽׁן׃

against all the cedars of Lebanon, lofty and lifted up, against all the oaks of Bashan,

14 וְעַ֖ל כָּל־הֶהָרִ֣ים הָרָמִ֑ים וְעַ֖ל כָּל־הַגְּבָעֹ֥ות הַנִּשָּׂאֹֽות׃

against all the tall mountains, against all the high hills,

15 וְעַ֖ל כָּל־מִגְדָּ֣ל גָּבֹ֑הַ וְעַ֖ל כָּל־חֹומָ֥ה בְצוּרָֽה׃

against every high tower, against every fortified wall,

16 וְעַ֖ל כָּל־אֳנִיֹּ֣ות תַּרְשִׁ֑ישׁ וְעַ֖ל כָּל־שְׂכִיֹּ֥ות הַחֶמְדָּֽה׃

against every ship of Tarshish, and against every stately vessel.

17 וְשַׁח֙ גַּבְה֣וּת הָאָדָ֔ם וְשָׁפֵ֖ל ר֣וּם אֲנָשִׁ֑ים וְנִשְׂגַּ֧ב יְהוָ֛ה לְבַדֹּ֖ו בַּיֹּ֥ום הַהֽוּא׃

So the pride of man will be brought low, and the loftiness of men will be humbled; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day,

18 וְהָאֱלִילִ֖ים כָּלִ֥יל יַחֲלֹֽף׃

and the idols will vanish completely.

19 וּבָ֙אוּ֙ בִּמְעָרֹ֣ות צֻרִ֔ים וּבִמְחִלֹּ֖ות עָפָ֑ר מִפְּנֵ֞י פַּ֤חַד יְהוָה֙ וּמֵהֲדַ֣ר גְּאֹונֹ֔ו בְּקוּמֹ֖ו לַעֲרֹ֥ץ הָאָֽרֶץ׃

Men will flee to caves in the rocks and holes in the ground, away from the terror of the LORD and from the splendor of His majesty, when He rises to shake the earth.

20 בַּיֹּ֤ום הַהוּא֙ יַשְׁלִ֣יךְ הָאָדָ֔ם אֵ֚ת אֱלִילֵ֣י כַסְפֹּ֔ו וְאֵ֖ת אֱלִילֵ֣י זְהָבֹ֑ו אֲשֶׁ֤ר עָֽשׂוּ־לֹו֙ לְהִֽשְׁתַּחֲוֹ֔ת לַחְפֹּ֥ר פֵּרֹ֖ות וְלָעֲטַלֵּפִֽים׃

In that day men will cast away to the moles and bats their idols of silver and gold— the idols they made to worship.

21 לָבֹוא֙ בְּנִקְרֹ֣ות הַצֻּרִ֔ים וּבִסְעִפֵ֖י הַסְּלָעִ֑ים מִפְּנֵ֞י פַּ֤חַד יְהוָה֙ וּמֵהֲדַ֣ר גְּאֹונֹ֔ו בְּקוּמֹ֖ו לַעֲרֹ֥ץ הָאָֽרֶץ׃

They will flee to caverns in the rocks and crevices in the cliffs, away from the terror of the LORD and from the splendor of His majesty, when He rises to shake the earth.

22 חִדְל֤וּ לָכֶם֙ מִן־הָ֣אָדָ֔ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר נְשָׁמָ֖ה בְּאַפֹּ֑ו כִּֽי־בַמֶּ֥ה נֶחְשָׁ֖ב הֽוּא׃ פ

Put no more trust in man, who has only the breath in his nostrils. Of what account is he?
