¹In the last days, the mountain of the Lord’s housewill be the highest of all - the most important place on earth.It will be raised above the other hills, and people from all over the world will stream there to worship. ²People from many nations will come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of Jacob’s God.There he will teach us his ways, and we will walk in his paths.”For the Lord’s teaching will go out from Zion;his word will go out from Jerusalem. ³The Lord will mediate between peoplesand will settle disputes between strong nations far away.They will hammer their swords into plowsharesand their spears into pruning hooks.Nation will no longer fight against nation, nor train for war anymore. ⁴Everyone will live in peace and prosperity, enjoying their own grapevines and fig trees, for there will be nothing to fear.The Lord of Heaven’s Armieshas made this promise! ⁵Though the nations around us follow their idols, we will follow the Lord our God forever and ever. ⁶“In that coming day, ” says the Lord, “I will gather together those who are lame, those who have been exiles, and those whom I have filled with grief. ⁷Those who are weak will survive as a remnant;those who were exiles will become a strong nation.Then I, the Lord, will rule from Jerusalem#4:7 Hebrew Mount Zion.as their king forever.” ⁸As for you, Jerusalem, the citadel of God’s people, #4:8 Hebrew As for you, Migdal-eder, / the Ophel of the daughter of Zion.your royal might and powerwill come back to you again.The kingship will be restoredto my precious Jerusalem. ⁹But why are you now screaming in terror?Have you no king to lead you?Have your wise people all died?Pain has gripped you like a woman in childbirth. ¹⁰Writhe and groan like a woman in labor, you people of Jerusalem, #4:10 Hebrew O daughter of Zion.for now you must leave this cityto live in the open country.You will soon be sent in exileto distant Babylon.But the Lord will rescue you there;he will redeem you from the grip of your enemies. ¹¹Now many nations have gathered against you.“Let her be desecrated, ” they say.“Let us see the destruction of Jerusalem.#4:11 Hebrew of Zion.” ¹²But they do not know the Lord’s thoughtsor understand his plan.These nations don’t knowthat he is gathering them togetherto be beaten and trampledlike sheaves of grain on a threshing floor. ¹³“Rise up and crush the nations, O Jerusalem!”#4:13 Hebrew “Rise up and thresh, O daughter of Zion.”says the Lord.“For I will give you iron horns and bronze hooves, so you can trample many nations to pieces.You will present their stolen riches to the Lord, their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.”
