1
But in the last[H319]days[H3117] it shall come to pass, that the mountain[H2022] of the house[H1004] of the LORD[H3068] shall be established[H3559] in the top[H7218] of the mountains[H2022], and it shall be exalted[H5375] above the hills[H1389]; and people[H5971] shall flow[H5102] unto it.
2
And many[H7227]nations[H1471] shall come[H1980], and say[H559], Come[H3212], and let us go up[H5927] to the mountain[H2022] of the LORD[H3068], and to the house[H1004] of the God[H430] of Jacob[H3290]; and he will teach[H3384] us of his ways[H1870], and we will walk[H3212] in his paths[H734]: for the law[H8451] shall go forth[H3318] of Zion[H6726], and the word[H1697] of the LORD[H3068] from Jerusalem[H3389].
3
And he shall judge[H8199] among many[H7227]people[H5971], and rebuke[H3198]strong[H6099]nations[H1471] afar off[H7350]; and they shall beat[H3807] their swords[H2719] into plowshares[H855], and their spears[H2595] into pruninghooks[H4211]: nation[H1471] shall not lift up[H5375] a sword[H2719] against nation[H1471], neither shall they learn[H3925]war[H4421] any more.
4
But they shall sit[H3427] every man[H376] under his vine[H1612] and under his fig tree[H8384]; and none shall make them afraid[H2729]: for the mouth[H6310] of the LORD[H3068] of hosts[H6635] hath spoken[H1696] it.
5
For all people[H5971] will walk[H3212] every one[H376] in the name[H8034] of his god[H430], and we will walk[H3212] in the name[H8034] of the LORD[H3068] our God[H430] for ever[H5769] and ever[H5703].
6
In that day[H3117], saith[H5002] the LORD[H3068], will I assemble[H622] her that halteth[H6760], and I will gather[H6908] her that is driven out[H5080], and her that I have afflicted[H7489];
7
And I will make[H7760] her that halted[H6760] a remnant[H7611], and her that was cast far off[H1972] a strong[H6099]nation[H1471]: and the LORD[H3068] shall reign[H4427] over them in mount[H2022]Zion[H6726] from henceforth, even for[H5704]ever[H5769].
8
And thou, O tower[H4026] of the flock[H5739], the strong hold[H6076] of the daughter[H1323] of Zion[H6726], unto thee shall it come[H857], even the first[H7223]dominion[H4475]; the kingdom[H4467] shall come[H935] to the daughter[H1323] of Jerusalem[H3389].
9
Now why dost thou cry[H7321] out aloud?[H7452] is there no king[H4428] in thee? is thy counsellor[H3289]perished?[H6] for pangs[H2427] have taken[H2388] thee as a woman in travail[H3205].
10
Be in pain[H2342], and labour to bring forth[H1518], O daughter[H1323] of Zion[H6726], like a woman in travail[H3205]: for now shalt thou go[H935]forth[H3318] out of the city[H7151], and thou shalt dwell[H7931] in the field[H7704], and thou shalt go[H935] even to Babylon[H894]; there shalt thou be delivered[H5337]; there the LORD[H3068] shall redeem[H1350] thee from the hand[H3709] of thine enemies[H341].
11
Now also many[H7227]nations[H1471] are gathered[H622] against thee, that say[H559], Let her be defiled[H2610], and let our eye[H5869]look[H2372] upon Zion[H6726].
12
But they know[H3045] not the thoughts[H4284] of the LORD[H3068], neither understand[H995] they his counsel[H6098]: for he shall gather[H6908] them as the sheaves[H5995] into the floor[H1637].
13Arise[H6965] and thresh[H1758], O daughter[H1323] of Zion[H6726]: for I will make[H7760] thine horn[H7161]iron[H1270], and I will make[H7760] thy hoofs[H6541]brass[H5154]: and thou shalt beat in pieces[H1854]many[H7227]people[H5971]: and I will consecrate[H2763] their gain[H1215] unto the LORD[H3068], and their substance[H2428] unto the Lord[H113] of the whole earth[H776].
