ISA 2:6–3:15 ©

The Lord’s Day of Judgment

The Lord’s Day of Judgment

6Indeed, O Lord, you have abandoned your people,

the descendants of Jacob.

For diviners from the east are everywhere;

they consult omen readers like the Philistines do.

Plenty of foreigners are around.

7Their land is full of gold and silver;

there is no end to their wealth.

Their land is full of horses;

there is no end to their chariots.

8Their land is full of worthless idols;

they worship the product of their own hands,

what their own fingers have fashioned.

9Men bow down to them in homage,

they lie flat on the ground in worship.

Don’t spare them!

10Go up into the rocky cliffs,

hide in the ground.

Get away from the dreadful judgment of the Lord,

from his royal splendor!

11Proud men will be brought low,

arrogant men will be humiliated;

the Lord alone will be exalted

in that day.

12Indeed, the Lord who commands armies has planned a day of judgment,

for all the high and mighty,

for all who are proud – they will be humiliated;

13for all the cedars of Lebanon,

that are so high and mighty,

for all the oaks of Bashan;

14for all the tall mountains,

for all the high hills,

15for every high tower,

for every fortified wall,

16for all the large ships,

for all the impressive ships.

17Proud men will be humiliated,

arrogant men will be brought low;

the Lord alone will be exalted

in that day.

18The worthless idols will be completely eliminated.

19They will go into caves in the rocky cliffs

and into holes in the ground,

trying to escape the dreadful judgment of the Lord

and his royal splendor,

when he rises up to terrify the earth.

20At that time men will throw

their silver and gold idols,

which they made for themselves to worship,

into the caves where rodents and bats live,

21so they themselves can go into the crevices of the rocky cliffs

and the openings under the rocky overhangs,

trying to escape the dreadful judgment of the Lord

and his royal splendor,

when he rises up to terrify the earth.

22Stop trusting in human beings,

whose life’s breath is in their nostrils.

For why should they be given special consideration?

3Look, the sovereign Lord who commands armies

is about to remove from Jerusalem and Judah

every source of security, including

all the food and water,

2the mighty men and warriors,

judges and prophets,

omen readers and leaders,

3captains of groups of fifty,

the respected citizens,

advisers and those skilled in magical arts,

and those who know incantations.

4The Lord says, “I will make youths their officials;

malicious young men will rule over them.

5The people will treat each other harshly;

men will oppose each other;

neighbors will fight.

Youths will proudly defy the elderly

and riffraff will challenge those who were once respected.

6Indeed, a man will grab his brother

right in his father’s house and say,

‘You own a coat –

you be our leader!

This heap of ruins will be under your control.’

7At that time the brother will shout,

‘I am no doctor,

I have no food or coat in my house;

don’t make me a leader of the people!’ ”

8Jerusalem certainly stumbles,

Judah falls,

for their words and their actions offend the Lord;

they rebel against his royal authority.

9The look on their faces testifies to their guilt;

like the people of Sodom they openly boast of their sin.

Too bad for them!

For they bring disaster on themselves.

10Tell the innocent it will go well with them,

for they will be rewarded for what they have done.

11Too bad for the wicked sinners!

For they will get exactly what they deserve.

12Oppressors treat my people cruelly;

creditors rule over them.

My people’s leaders mislead them;

they give you confusing directions.

13The Lord takes his position to judge;

he stands up to pass sentence on his people.

14The Lord comes to pronounce judgment

on the leaders of his people and their officials.

He says, “It is you who have ruined the vineyard!

You have stashed in your houses what you have stolen from the poor.

15Why do you crush my people

and grind the faces of the poor?”

The sovereign Lord who commands armies has spoken.
