Isaiah 2:5-7
EasyEnglish Bible
5 Jacob's family, come now! We need to live in the light that the Lord gives to us.[a]
The great day when the Lord will judge everyone
6 Lord, you have gone away from your people. They are Jacob's descendants. They are full of ideas from countries in the east. They use magic to learn about future times, as the Philistines do. They join hands with foreign people.
7 They are very rich and their land is full of silver and gold. They have many horses, and more chariots than you can count.
