The Mountain of the Lord

Micah 4

¹ It shall come to pass _o in the latter days
that the mountain of the house of the Lord
shall be established as the highest of the mountains,
and it shall be lifted up above the hills;
and peoples shall flow to it,
² and many nations shall come, and say:
"Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the house of the God of Jacob,
that he may teach us his ways
and that we may walk in his paths."
For out of Zion shall go forth the law, ₁
and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
³ He shall judge between many peoples,
and shall decide for strong nations far away;
and they shall _p beat their swords into plowshares,
and their spears into pruning hooks;
nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war anymore;
⁴ _q but they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree,
_r and no one shall make them afraid,
_s for the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken.
⁵ For _t all the peoples walk
each in the name of its god,
but _u we will walk in the name of the Lord our God
forever and ever.
