ISA 1:21–2:5 ©

Purifying Judgment

Purifying Judgment

21How tragic that the once-faithful city

has become a prostitute!

She was once a center of justice,

fairness resided in her,

but now only murderers.

22Your silver has become scum,

your beer is diluted with water.

23Your officials are rebels,

they associate with thieves.

All of them love bribery,

and look for payoffs.

They do not take up the cause of the orphan,

or defend the rights of the widow.

24Therefore, the sovereign Lord who commands armies,

the powerful ruler of Israel, says this:

“Ah, I will seek vengeance against my adversaries,

I will take revenge against my enemies.

25I will attack you;

I will purify your metal with flux.

I will remove all your slag.

26I will reestablish honest judges as in former times,

wise advisers as in earlier days.

Then you will be called, ‘The Just City,

Faithful Town.’ ”

27

Zion will be freed by justice,

and her returnees by righteousness.

28All rebellious sinners will be shattered,

those who abandon the Lord will perish.

29Indeed, they will be ashamed of the sacred trees

you find so desirable;

you will be embarrassed because of the sacred orchards

where you choose to worship.

30For you will be like a tree whose leaves wither,

like an orchard that is unwatered.

31The powerful will be like a thread of yarn,

their deeds like a spark;

both will burn together,

and no one will put out the fire.

2Here is the message about Judah and Jerusalem that was revealed to Isaiah son of Amoz.

2In the future

the mountain of the Lord’s temple will endure

as the most important of mountains,

and will be the most prominent of hills.

All the nations will stream to it,

3many peoples will come and say,

“Come, let us go up to the Lord’s mountain,

to the temple of the God of Jacob,

so he can teach us his requirements,

and we can follow his standards.”

For Zion will be the center for moral instruction;

the Lord will issue edicts from Jerusalem.

4He will judge disputes between nations;

he will settle cases for many peoples.

They will beat their swords into plowshares,

and their spears into pruning hooks.

Nations will not take up the sword against other nations,

and they will no longer train for war.

5O descendants of Jacob,

come, let us walk in the Lord’s guiding light.
