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 out of Zion shall go forth the law and instruction, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. me?
6 Behold, you trust in the staff of this bruised and broken reed, Egypt, which will pierce the hand of any man who leans on it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust and rely on him. 7 But if you say to me, We trust in and rely on the Lord our God.
Is it not He Whose high places and Whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, saying to Judah and to Jerusalem, You shall worship before this altar? 8 Now therefore, I pray you, make a wager with my master the king of Assyria and give him pledges.
And I will give you two thousand horses--if you are able on your part to put riders on them. 9 How then can you repulse the attack of a single captain of the least of my master's servants, when you put your reliance on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
10 Moreover, is it without the Lord that I have now come up against this land to destroy it? The Lord said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it. 11 Then Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to the Rabshakeh, We pray you, speak to your servants.
In the Aramaic or Syrian language, for we understand it; and do not speak to us in the language of the Jews in the hearing of the people on the wall. Isaiah 26:2 Open the gates, that the righteous nation which keeps her faith and her troth may enter in.
3 You will guard him and keep him in perfect and constant peace whose mind is stayed on You, because he commits himself to You, leans on You, and hopes confidently in You. 4 So trust in the Lord (commit yourself to Him, lean on Him, hope confidently in Him) forever.
For the Lord God is an everlasting Rock . 5 For He has brought down the inhabitants of the height, the lofty city; He lays it low, lays it low to the ground; He brings it even to the dust. 6 The foot has trampled it down--even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy.
7 The way of the righteous (those living in moral and spiritual rectitude in every area and relationship of their lives) is level and straight; You, O , Who are upright, direct aright and make level the path of the just and righteous. 8 Yes, in the path of Your judgments.
O Lord, we wait for You; our heartfelt desire is for Your name and for the remembrance of You. 9 My soul yearns for You in the night, yes, my spirit within me seeks You earnestly; for when Your judgments are in the earth will the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
Uprightness and right standing with God). 10 Though favor is shown to the wicked, yet they do not learn righteousness; in the land of uprightness they deal perversely and refuse to see the majesty of the Lord. 11 Though Your hand is lifted high to strike.
Lord, they do not see it. Let them see Your zeal for Your people and be ashamed; yes, let the fire reserved for Your enemies consume them. 12 Lord, You will ordain peace (God's favor and blessings, both temporal and spiritual) for us, for You have also wrought in us and for us all.

Among your own and becoming critics and judges with wrong motives? 5 Listen, my beloved brethren: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and in their position as believers and to inherit.

7 Is it not they who slander and blaspheme that precious name by which you are distinguished and called ? 8 If indeed you fulfill the royal Law in accordance with the Scripture, You shall love your neighbor as yourself, you do well.
9 But if you show servile regard (prejudice, favoritism) for people, you commit sin and are rebuked and convicted by the Law as violators and offenders. 10 For whosoever keeps the Law whole but stumbles and offends in one has become guilty of all of it.
