9 aProclaim this among the nations:

bPrepare a war; crouse the mighty men!

Let all the soldiers draw near, let them come up!

10 aBeat your plowshares into swords

And your pruning hooks into spears;

bLet the weak say, “I am a mighty man.”

11 1aHasten and come, all you surrounding nations,

And gather yourselves there.

Bring down, O Lord, Your bmighty ones.

12 Let the nations be aroused

And come up to the avalley of 1Jehoshaphat,

For there I will sit to bjudge

All the surrounding nations.

13 aPut in the sickle, for the bharvest is ripe.

Come, ctread, for the dwine press is full;

The vats overflow, for their ewickedness is great.

14 aMultitudes, multitudes in the bvalley of 1decision!

For the cday of the Lord is near in the valley of 1decision.

15 The asun and moon grow dark

And the stars lose their brightness.
