1. But in the days to come,the mountain of the Lord’s housewill be the highest of the mountains;it will be lifted above the hills;peoples will stream to it.
2. Many nations will go and say:"Come, let’s go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of Jacob’s God,so that he may teach us his waysand we may walk in God’s paths!"Instruction will come from Zionand the Lord’s word from Jerusalem.
3. God will judge between the nationsand settle disputes of mighty nations,which are far away.They will beat their swords into iron plowsand their spears into pruning tools.Nation will not take up sword against nation;they will no longer learn how to make war.
4. All will sit underneath their own grapevines,under their own fig trees.There will be no one to terrify them;for the mouth of the Lord of heavenly forces has spoken.
