Isaiah 2:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 And many people shall go, and say, Come, and let us go up to [a]the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us his ways, and we will walk in his paths, (A)for the [b]Law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the Lord from [c]Jerusalem.
4 And [d]he shall judge among the nations, and [e]rebuke many people: they shall [f]break their swords also into mattocks, and their spears into scythes: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn [g]to fight anymore.
5 O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us [h]walk in the Law of the Lord.
