Micah 4:1–8

The Mountain of Yahweh

4And it will be that at the end of those days,

the mountain of the house of Yahweh

will be established as the highest of the mountains,

and it will be lifted up above the hills,

and people will stream to it.

²And many nations will come and say,

“Come! Let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh,

and to the temple^a of the God of Jacob,

that he may teach us his ways,

and that we may walk in his paths,”

for the law will go out from Zion,

and the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.

³And he will judge between many peoples

and will arbitrate for strong nations far away;

and they will beat their swords into plowshares

and their spears into pruning hooks;

nation will not lift up a sword against a nation,

and they will no longer learn war.

⁴But they will sit, each under his vine

and under his fig tree,

and no one will make them afraid,

for the mouth of Yahweh of hosts has spoken.

⁵For all the nations walk,

each in the name of its god,

but we will walk in the name of Yahweh our God,

forever and ever.

Yahweh Will Deliver Zion

⁶“In that day,” declares Yahweh,^b

“I will assemble the one who limps,

and I will gather the one who has been scattered,

and those whom I have mistreated.

⁷And I will make the one who limps a remnant,

and the one driven far away a strong nation,

and Yahweh will reign over them on Mount Zion

from now to forever.

⁸And you, O Migdal-Eder,^c

hill of the daughter of Zion,

to you it will come,

and the former dominion will come,

the reign of the daughter of Jerusalem.
