1 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. 2 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. 3 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. 4 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. 5 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. 6 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; 7 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. 8 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. 9 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. 10 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. 11 Now also many na­tions are gath­ered against thee, that say, Let her be de­filed, and let our eye look upon Zion. 12 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. 13 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.
