1 Palavra que, em visão, veio a Isaías, filho de Amoz, a respeito de Judá e Jerusalém.

2 Nos últimos dias, acontecerá que o monte da Casa do Senhor será estabelecido no cimo dos montes e se elevará sobre os outeiros, e para ele afluirão todos os povos. 3 Irão muitas nações e dirão: Vinde, e subamos ao monte do Senhor e à casa do Deus de Jacó, para que nos ensine os seus caminhos, e andemos pelas suas veredas; porque de Sião sairá a lei, e a palavra do Senhor, de Jerusalém. 4 Ele julgará entre os povos e corrigirá muitas nações; estas converterão as suas espadas em relhas de arados e suas lanças, em podadeiras; uma nação não levantará a espada contra outra nação, nem aprenderão mais a guerra. 5 Vinde, ó casa de Jacó, e andemos na luz do Senhor.

6 Pois, tu, Senhor, desamparaste o teu povo, a casa de Jacó, porque os seus se encheram da corrupção do Oriente e são agoureiros como os filisteus e se associam com os filhos dos estranhos. 7 A sua terra está cheia de prata e de ouro, e não têm conta os seus tesouros; também está cheia de cavalos, e os seus carros não têm fim. 8 Também está cheia a sua terra de ídolos; adoram a obra das suas mãos, aquilo que os seus próprios dedos fizeram. 9 Com isso, a gente se abate, e o homem se avilta; portanto, não lhes perdoarás. 10 Vai, entra nas rochas e esconde-te no pó, ante o terror do Senhor e a glória da sua majestade. 11 Os olhos altivos dos homens serão abatidos, e a sua altivez será humilhada; só o Senhor será exaltado naquele dia.

12 Porque o Dia do Senhor dos Exércitos será contra todo soberbo e altivo e contra todo aquele que se exalta, para que seja abatido; 13 contra todos os cedros do Líbano, altos, mui elevados; e contra todos os carvalhos de Basã; 14 contra todos os montes altos e contra todos os outeiros elevados; 15 contra toda torre alta e contra toda muralha firme; 16 contra todos os navios de Társis e contra tudo o que é belo à vista. 17 A arrogância do homem será abatida, e a sua altivez será humilhada; só o Senhor será exaltado naquele dia.

18 Os ídolos serão de todo destruídos. 19 Então, os homens se meterão nas cavernas das rochas e nos buracos da terra, ante o terror do Senhor e a glória da sua majestade, quando ele se levantar para espantar a terra. 20 Naquele dia, os homens lançarão às toupeiras e aos morcegos os seus ídolos de prata e os seus ídolos de ouro, que fizeram para ante eles se prostrarem, 21 e meter-se-ão pelas fendas das rochas e pelas cavernas das penhas, ante o terror do Senhor e a glória da sua majestade, quando ele se levantar para espantar a terra. 22 Afastai-vos, pois, do homem cujo fôlego está no seu nariz. Pois em que é ele estimado?

1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

2 And it shall come to pass in the latter days, that the mountain of Jehovah’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. 3 And many peoples shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, 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 shall go forth the law, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem. 4 And 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.

5 O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of Jehovah. 6 For thou hast forsaken thy people the house of Jacob, because they are filled with customs from the east, and are soothsayers like the Philistines, and they strike hands with the children of foreigners. 7 And 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. 8 Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made. 9 And the mean man is bowed down, and the great man is brought low: therefore forgive them not. 10 Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty. 11 The lofty looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.

12 For there shall be a day of Jehovah of hosts upon all that is proud and haughty, and upon all that is lifted up; and it shall be brought low; 13 and upon all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan, 14 and upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up, 15 and upon every lofty tower, and upon every fortified wall, 16 and upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant imagery. 17 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day. 18 And the idols shall utterly pass away. 19 And men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake mightily the earth. 20 In that day men shall cast away their idols of silver, and their idols of gold, which have been made for them to worship, to the moles and to the bats; 21 to go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake mightily the earth. 22 Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for wherein is he to be accounted of?

1 This is what Isaiah son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem:

2 In the last days the mountain of the LORD's temple will be established as the highest of the mountains; it will be exalted above the hills, and all nations will stream to it.

3 Many peoples will come and say, "Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the temple of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths." The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

4 He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.

5 Come, descendants of Jacob, let us walk in the light of the LORD.

6 You, LORD, have abandoned your people, the descendants of Jacob. They are full of superstitions from the East; they practice divination like the Philistines and embrace pagan customs.

7 Their land is full of silver and gold; there is no end to their treasures. Their land is full of horses; there is no end to their chariots.

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

9 So people will be brought low and everyone humbled — do not forgive them. [^1]

10 Go into the rocks, hide in the ground from the fearful presence of the LORD and the splendor of his majesty!

11 The eyes of the arrogant will be humbled and human pride brought low; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.

12 The LORD Almighty has a day in store for all the proud and lofty, for all that is exalted (and they will be humbled),

13 for all the cedars of Lebanon, tall and lofty, and all the oaks of Bashan,

14 for all the towering mountains and all the high hills,

15 for every lofty tower and every fortified wall,

16 for every trading ship "and every stately vessel.

17 The arrogance of man will be brought low and human pride humbled; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day,

18 and the idols will totally disappear.

19 People will flee to caves in the rocks and to holes in the ground from the fearful presence of the LORD and the splendor of his majesty, when he rises to shake the earth.

20 In that day people will throw away to the moles and bats their idols of silver and idols of gold, which they made to worship.

21 They will flee to caverns in the rocks and to the overhanging crags from the fearful presence of the LORD and the splendor of his majesty, when he rises to shake the earth.

22 Stop trusting in mere humans, who have but a breath in their nostrils. Why hold them in esteem?
