And it will come about in the ^(C1)last days That the ^(C2)mountain of the house of the LORD Will be established ^(F1)as the chief of the mountains. It will be raised above the hills, And the ^(C3)peoples will stream to it.

^(C1)Many nations will come and say, "^(C2)Come and let's go up to the mountain of the LORD And to the house of the God of Jacob, So that ^(C3)He may teach us about His ways, And that we may walk in His paths." For ^(C4)from Zion will go forth the law, And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

And He will ^(C1)judge between many peoples And render decisions for mighty, ^(F1)distant nations. Then they will beat their swords ^(C2)into plowshares, And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation will not lift a sword against nation, And never again will they ^(F2)train for war.

Instead, each of them will ^(C1)sit under his vine And under his fig tree, With ^(C2)no one to make them afraid, Because the ^(C3)mouth of the LORD of armies has spoken.

Though all the peoples walk, Each in the ^(C1)name of his god, As for us, ^(C2)we will walk In the name of the ^(C3)LORD our God forever and ever.

"On that day," declares the LORD, "I will assemble those who ^(C1)limp And ^(C2)gather the scattered, Those whom I have afflicted.

-"I will make those who limp a ^(C1)remnant, And those who ^(F1)have strayed a mighty nation, And the ^(C2)LORD will reign over them on Mount Zion From now on and forever.
