1. This is the message which Isaiah, son of Amoz, saw about Judah and Jerusalem.
2. In the last days the mountain of the Lord’s housewill be established as the highest of the mountainsand raised above the hills.All the nations will stream to it.
3. Then many people will come and say,“Let’s go to the mountain of the Lord,to the house of the God of Jacob.He will teach us his ways so that we may live by them.”The teachings will go out from Zion.The word of the Lord will go out from Jerusalem.
4. Then he will judge disputes between nationsand settle arguments between many people.They will hammer their swords into plowbladesand their spears into pruning shears.Nations will never fight against each other,and they will never train for war again.
5. Come, descendants of Jacob,let’s live in the light of the Lord.
6. Lord, you have abandoned your people, the descendants of Jacob,because they are filled with Eastern influences.They are fortunetellers like the Philistines,and they make deals with foreigners.
