[1] But in the latter days,
it will happen that the mountain of Yahweh’s temple will be established on the top of the mountains,
and it will be exalted above the hills;
and peoples will stream to it.
[2] Many nations will go and say,
“Come! Let’s go up to the mountain of Yahweh,
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 will go out of Zion,
and Yahweh’s word from Jerusalem;
[3] and he will judge between many peoples,
and will decide concerning strong nations afar off.
They will beat their swords into plowshares,
and their spears into pruning hooks.
Nation will not lift up sword against nation,
neither will they learn war any more.
[4] But every man will sit under his vine and under his fig tree.
No one will make them afraid,
for the mouth of Yahweh of Armies has spoken. [5] Indeed all the nations may walk in the name of their gods,
but we will walk in the name of Yahweh our God forever and ever.
[6] “In that day,” says Yahweh,
“I will assemble that which is lame,
and I will gather that which is driven away,
and that which I have afflicted;
[7] and I will make that which was lame a remnant,
and that which was cast far off a strong nation:
and Yahweh will reign over them on Mount Zion from then on, even forever.”
[8] You, tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion,
to you it will come.
Yes, the former dominion will come,
the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem. [9] Now why do you cry out aloud?
Is there no king in you?
Has your counselor perished,
that pains have taken hold of you as of a woman in travail?
[10] Be in pain, and labor to give birth, daughter of Zion,
like a woman in travail;
for now you will go out of the city,
and will dwell in the field,
and will come even to Babylon.
There you will be rescued.
There Yahweh will redeem you from the hand of your enemies. [11] Now many nations have assembled against you, that say,
“Let her be defiled,
and let our eye gloat over Zion.”
[12] But they don’t know the thoughts of Yahweh,
neither do they understand his counsel;
for he has gathered them like the sheaves to the threshing floor.
[13] Arise and thresh, daughter of Zion,
for I will make your horn iron,
and I will make your hoofs bronze.
You will beat in pieces many peoples.
I will devote their gain to Yahweh,
and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
it will happen that the mountain of Yahweh’s temple will be established on the top of the mountains,
and it will be exalted above the hills;
and peoples will stream to it.

King James Version
Jerusalem, City of God
[1] But in the last H319 days H3117 it shall come to pass, that the mountain H2022 of the house H1004 of the Lord H3068 shall be established H3559 in the top H7218 of the mountains, H2022 and it shall be exalted H5375 above the hills; H1389 and people H5971 shall flow H5102 unto it. [2] And many H7227 nations H1471 shall come, H1980 and say, H559 Come, H3212 and let us go up H5927 to the mountain H2022 of the Lord, H3068 and to the house H1004 of the God H430 of Jacob; H3290 and he will teach H3384 us of his ways, H1870 and we will walk H3212 in his paths: H734 for H3588 the law H8451 shall go forth H3318 of Zion, H6726 and the word H1697 of the Lord H3068 from Jerusalem. H3389 [3] And he shall judge H8199 among many H7227 people, H5971 and rebuke H3198 strong H6099 nations H1471 afar off; H7350 and they shall beat H3807 their swords H2719 into plowshares, H855 and their spears H2595 into pruninghooks: H4211§ nation H1471 shall H5375 not H3808 lift up H5375 a sword H2719 against nation, H1471 neither shall they learn H3925 war H4421 any more. [4] But they shall sit H3427 every man H376 under his vine H1612 and under his fig tree; H8384 and none shall make them afraid: H2729 for H3588 the mouth H6310 of the Lord H3068 of hosts H6635 hath spoken H1696 it. [5] For all people H5971 will walk H3212 every H3605 one H376 in the name H8034 of his god, H430 and we will walk H3212 in the name H8034 of the Lord H3068 our God H430 for ever H5769 and ever. H5703 [6] In that day, H3117 saith H5002 the Lord, H3068 will I assemble H622 her that halteth, H6760 and I will gather H6908 her that is driven out, H5080 and her that I have afflicted; H7489 [7] and I will make H7760 H853 her that halted H6760 a remnant, H7611 and her that was cast far off H1972 a strong H6099 nation: H1471 and the Lord H3068 shall reign H4427 over H5921 them in mount H2022 Zion H6726 from henceforth, even for H5704 ever. H5769 [8] And thou, O tower H4026 of the flock, H5739 H4029 the strong hold H6076 of the daughter H1323 of Zion, H6726 unto H5704 thee shall it come, H857 even the first H7223 dominion; H4475 the kingdom H4467 shall come H935 to the daughter H1323 of Jerusalem. H3389 [9] Now H6258 why dost thou cry H7321 out aloud? H7452 is there no king H4428 in thee? is thy counsellor H3289 perished? H6 for H3588 pangs H2427 have taken H2388 thee as a woman in travail. H3205 [10] Be in pain, H2342 and labour to bring forth, H1518 O daughter H1323 of Zion, H6726 like a woman in travail: H3205 for H3588 now H6258 shalt thou go forth H3318 out of the city, H7151 and thou shalt dwell H7931 in the field, H7704 and thou shalt go H935 even to Babylon; H894 there H8033 shalt thou be delivered; H5337 there H8033 the Lord H3068 shall redeem H1350 thee from the hand H3709 of thine enemies. H341 [11] Now H6258 also many H7227 nations H1471 are gathered H622 against thee, that say, H559 Let her be defiled, H2610 and let our eye H5869 look H2372 upon Zion. H6726 [12] But they know H3045 not H3808 the thoughts H4284 of the Lord, H3068 neither understand H995 they his counsel: H6098 for H3588 he shall gather H6908 them as the sheaves H5995 into the floor. H1637 [13] Arise H6965 and thresh, H1758 O daughter H1323 of Zion: H6726 for H3588 I will make H7760 thine horn H7161 iron, H1270 and I will make H7760 thy hoofs H6541 brass: H5154 and thou shalt beat in pieces H1854 many H7227 people: H5971 and I will consecrate H2763 their gain H1215 unto the Lord, H3068 and their substance H2428 unto the Lord H113 of the whole earth.
