But in the last days
it shall come to pass, that the mountain
of the house
of the LORD
shall be established
in the top
of the mountains
, and it shall be exalted
above the hills
; and people
shall flow
unto it.
And many nations
shall come
, and say
, Come
, and let us go up
to the mountain
of the LORD
, and to the house
of the God
of Jacob
; and he will teach
us of his ways
, and we will walk
in his paths
: for the law
shall go forth
of Zion
, and the word
of the LORD
from Jerusalem
.
And he shall judge among many
people
, and rebuke
strong
nations
afar off
; and they shall beat
their swords
into plowshares
, and their spears
into pruninghooks
: nation
shall not lift up
a sword
against nation
, neither shall they learn
war
any more.
But they shall sit every man
under his vine
and under his fig tree
; and none shall make them afraid
: for the mouth
of the LORD
of hosts
hath spoken
it .
For all people will walk
every one
in the name
of his god
, and we will walk
in the name
of the LORD
our God
for ever
and ever
.
In that day, saith
the LORD
, will I assemble
her that halteth
, and I will gather
her that is driven out
, and her that I have afflicted
;
And I will make her that halted
a remnant
, and her that was cast far off
a strong
nation
: and the LORD
shall reign
over them in mount
Zion
from henceforth, even for
ever
.
And thou, O tower of the flock
, the strong hold
of the daughter
of Zion
, unto thee shall it come
, even the first
dominion
; the kingdom
shall come
to the daughter
of Jerusalem
.
Now why dost thou cry out aloud
? is there no king
in thee? is thy counsellor
perished
? for pangs
have taken
thee as a woman in travail
.
Be in pain, and labour to bring forth
, O daughter
of Zion
, like a woman in travail
: for now shalt thou go forth
out of the city
, and thou shalt dwell
in the field
, and thou shalt go
even to Babylon
; there shalt thou be delivered
; there the LORD
shall redeem
thee from the hand
of thine enemies
.
Now also many nations
are gathered
against thee, that say
, Let her be defiled
, and let our eye
look
upon Zion
.
But they know not the thoughts
of the LORD
, neither understand
they his counsel
: for he shall gather
them as the sheaves
into the floor
.
Arise and thresh
, O daughter
of Zion
: for I will make
thine horn
iron
, and I will make
thy hoofs
brass
: and thou shalt beat in pieces
many
people
: and I will consecrate
their gain
unto the LORD
, and their substance
unto the Lord
of the whole earth
.
