| 4:1 |
But in the last days it shall come to pass, [that] the mount of the house of the LORD shall be established on the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow to it.
|
| 4:2 |
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 from Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
|
| 4:3 |
And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plow-shares, and their spears into pruning-hooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
|
| 4:4 |
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].
|
| 4:5 |
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.
|
| 4:6 |
In that day, saith the LORD, I will assemble her that halteth, and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted;
|
| 4:7 |
And I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off a strong nation: and the LORD will reign over them in mount Zion from henceforth, even for ever.
|
| 4:8 |
And thou, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, to thee shall it come, even the first dominion; the kingdom shall come, to the daughter of Jerusalem.
|
| 4:9 |
Now why dost thou cry aloud? [is there] no king in thee? hath thy counselor perished? for pangs have taken thee as a woman in travail.
|
| 4:10 |
Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: for now shalt thou go forth from 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 thy enemies.
|
| 4:11 |
Now also many nations are gathered against thee, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look upon Zion.
|
| 4:12 |
But they know not the thoughts of the LORD, neither understand they his counsel: for he will gather them as sheaves into the floor.
|
| 4:13 |
Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion: for I will make thy horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass: and thou shalt beat in pieces many people: and I will consecrate their gain to JEHOVAH, and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
