OK. Easy.

Assuming your id2 in table2 has no replicated value.

data table1;
input id id2;
cards;
1 2
2 3
3 4
4 5
;
run;

data table2;
input id id2;
cards;
2 3
;
run;

data want;
 if _n_ eq 1 then do;
  if 0 then set table2;
  declare hash ha(dataset:'table2', hashexp:10);
   ha.definekey('id2');
   ha.definedone();
 end;
 set table1;
  if ha.check(key:id)=0 then output;
run;
