Isaiah 2:4 in Context — Isaiah 2

2 E acontecerá no últimos dias, que o monte da cada do SENHOR se firmará no cume dos montes, e se levantará por cima dos morros; e correrão em direção a ele todas as nações.

3 E muitos povos irão, e dirão: Vinde, subamos ao monte do SENHOR, à casa do Deus de Jacó, para que ele nos ensine sobre seus caminhos, e andemos em suas veredas; Porque de Sião virá a Lei, e de Jerusalém a palavra do SENHOR.

4 E ele julgará entre as nações, e repreenderá a muitos povos; e trocarão suas espadas em enxadas, e suas lanças em foices; não se levantará mais espada nação contra nação, nem aprenderão mais a fazer guerra.

5 Casa de Jacó, vinde, e andemos à luz do SENHOR.

6 Mas tu, [SENHOR] , desamparaste a teu povo, à casa de Jacó; porque se encheram [dos costumes] do oriente, e são místicos como os filisteus; e se associam a filhos de estrangeiros.
