3And He will judge between many peoples
         And render decisions for mighty, distant nations.
         Then they will hammer their swords into plowshares
         And their spears into pruning hooks;
         Nation will not lift up sword against nation,
         And never again will they train for war.

4Each of them will sit under his vine
         And under his fig tree,
         With no one to make them afraid,
         For the mouth of the LORD of hosts has spoken.

5Though all the peoples walk
         Each in the name of his god,
         As for us, we will walk
         In the name of the LORD our God forever and ever.

6“In that day,” declares the LORD,
         “I will assemble the lame
         And gather the outcasts,
         Even those whom I have afflicted.

7“I will make the lame a remnant
         And the outcasts a strong nation,
         And the LORD will reign over them in Mount Zion
         From now on and forever.

8“As for you, tower of the flock,
         Hill of the daughter of Zion,
         To you it will come—
         Even the former dominion will come,
         The kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.

9“Now, why do you cry out loudly?
         Is there no king among you,
         Or has your counselor perished,
         That agony has gripped you like a woman in childbirth?

10“Writhe and labor to give birth,
         Daughter of Zion,
         Like a woman in childbirth;
         For now you will go out of the city,
         Dwell in the field,
         And go to Babylon.
         There you will be rescued;
         There the LORD will redeem you
         From the hand of your enemies.

11“And now many nations have been assembled against you
         Who say, ‘Let her be polluted,
         And let our eyes gloat over Zion.’

12“But they do not know the thoughts of the LORD,
         And they do not understand His purpose;
         For He has gathered them like sheaves to the threshing floor.

13“Arise and thresh, daughter of Zion,
         For your horn I will make iron
         And your hoofs I will make bronze,
         That you may pulverize many peoples,
         That you may devote to the LORD their unjust gain
         And their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.
