< Micah 4 >
1 And it will be - at [the] end of the days it will be [the] mountain of [the] house of Yahweh established at [the] head of the mountains and it will be lifted up it more than [the] hills and they will stream to it peoples.
And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the house of the Lord shall be prepared in the top of mountains, and high above the hills: and people shall flow to it.
2 And they will come nations many and they will say come - so we may go up to [the] mountain of Yahweh and to [the] house of [the] God of Jacob so he may teach us from ways his so we may walk in paths his for from Zion it will go out instruction and [the] word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.
And many nations shall come in haste, and say: Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, 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 shall go forth out of Sion, and the word of the Lord out of Jerusalem.
3 And he will judge between peoples many and he will decide for nations mighty to far away and they will beat swords their into plowshares and spears their into pruning knives not they will lift up nation against nation a sword and not they will learn! again warfare.
And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off: and they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into spades: nation shall not take sword against nation: neither shall they learn war any more.
4 And they will dwell everyone under own vine his and under own fig tree his and there not [will be one who] terrifies for [the] mouth of Yahweh of hosts it has spoken.
And every man shall sit under his vine, and under his fig tree, and there shall be none to make them afraid: for the mouth of the Lord of hosts hath spoken.
5 For all the peoples they walk everyone in [the] name of own god his and we we will walk in [the] name of Yahweh God our for ever and ever.
For all people will walk every one in the name of his god: but we will walk in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.
6 In the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh I will gather the [one who is] lame and the [one who is] outcast I will assemble and [those] whom I have done harm to.
In that day, saith the Lord, I will gather up her that halteth: and her that I had cast out, I will gather up: and her whom I had afflicted.
7 And I will make the [one who was] lame into a remnant and the [one who was] straying into a nation mighty and he will reign Yahweh over them in [the] mountain of Zion from now and until perpetuity.
And I will make her that halted, a remnant: and her that hath been afflicted, a mighty nation: and the Lord will reign over them in mount Sion, from this time now and for ever.
8 And you O Migdal Eder O hill of [the] daughter of Zion to you it will come and it will come the dominion former a kingdom to [the] daughter of Jerusalem.
And thou, O cloudy tower of the flock, of the daughter of Sion, unto thee shall it come: yea the first power shall come, the kingdom to the daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Now why? do you shout shouting ¿ a king [is] there not in you or? counselor your has he perished that it has taken hold of you anguish like [woman] giving birth.
Now, why art thou drawn together with grief? Hast thou no king in thee, or is thy counsellor perished, because sorrow hath taken thee as a woman in labour?
10 Writhe in pain and burst forth O daughter of Zion like [woman] giving birth for now you will go out from [the] town and you will dwell in the open country and you will go to Babylon there you will be delivered there he will redeem you Yahweh from [the] hand of enemies your.
Be in pain and labour, O daughter of Sion, as a woman that bringeth forth: for now shalt thou go out of the city, and shalt dwell in the country, and shalt come even to Babylon, there thou shalt be delivered: there the Lord will redeem thee out of the hand of thy enemies.
11 And now they have gathered on you nations many that are saying let her be polluted and let it look on Zion eyes our.
And now many nations are gathered together against thee, and they say: Let her be stoned: and let our eye look upon Sion.
12 And they not they know [the] thoughts of Yahweh and not they understand counsel his that he has gathered them like cut grain [the] threshing floor towards.
But they have not known the thoughts of the Lord, and have not understood his counsel: because he hath gathered them together as the hay of the floor.
13 Arise and thresh O daughter of Zion for horn your I will make iron and hooves your I will make bronze and you will crush peoples many and I will dedicate to destruction to Yahweh unjust gain their and wealth their to [the] lord of all the earth.
Arise, and tread, O daughter of Sion: for I will make thy horn iron, and thy hoofs I will make brass: and thou shalt beat in pieces many peoples, and shalt immolate the spoils of them to the Lord, and their strength to the Lord of the whole earth.
