Isaiah 2:6 in Context — Isaiah 2

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.

7 A terra deles está cheia de prata e de ouro, e os tesouros deles não têm fim; a terra deles está cheia de cavalos, e as carruagens deles não têm fim.

8 A terra deles também está cheia de ídolos; eles se inclinam perante as obras de suas próprias mãos, perante o que seus próprios dedos fizeram.
