Isaiah 2:1-5 & Psalm 122

Isaiah 2:1-5

The Mountain of the Lord

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

2 lIt shall come to pass in the latter days

that mthe mountain of the house of the Lord

shall be established as the highest of the mountains,

and shall be lifted up above the hills;

and nall the nations shall flow to it,

3 and omany peoples shall come, and say:

“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,

to the house of the God of Jacob,

that he may teach us his ways

and that we may walk in his paths.”

For pout of Zion shall go the law,1

and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

4 He shall judge between the nations,

and shall decide disputes for many peoples;

qand they shall beat their swords into plowshares,

and their spears into pruning hooks;

rnation shall not lift up sword against nation,

neither shall they learn war anymore.

5 O house of Jacob,

come, let us walk

in sthe light of the Lord.

Psalm 122

Let Us Go to the House of the Lord

A Song of mAscents. Of David.

122 I was glad when they said to me,

g“Let us go to the house of the Lord!”

2 Our feet have been standing

within your gates, O Jerusalem!

3 Jerusalem—hbuilt as a city

that is ibound firmly together,

4 to which the tribes jgo up,

the tribes of the Lord,

as was kdecreed for1 Israel,

to give thanks to the name of the Lord.

5 There lthrones for judgment were set,

the thrones of the house of David.

6 mPray for the peace of Jerusalem!

“May they be secure who love you!

7 Peace be within your nwalls

and security within your ntowers!”

8 For my brothers and companions' sake

I will say, o“Peace be within you!”

9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,

I will pseek your good.
