|
|
2. and many nations will come and say, "Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us about His ways so we may walk in His paths." For instruction will go out of Zion and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

3. And he shall judge H8199 among H996 many H7227 people H5971 , and rebuke H3198 strong H6099 nations H1471 afar off H5704 H7350 ; and they shall beat H3807 their swords H2719 into plowshares H855 , and their spears H2595 into pruning hooks H4211 : nation H1471 shall not H3808 lift up H5375 a sword H2719 against H413 nation H1471 , neither H3808 shall they learn H3925 war H4421 any more H5750 .

|
|
7. I will make the lame into a remnant, those far removed into a strong nation. Then the LORD will rule over them in Mount Zion from this time on and forever.
|
7. And I will make H7760 H853 her that halted H6760 a remnant H7611 , and her that was cast far off H1972 a strong H6099 nation H1471 : and the LORD H3068 shall reign H4427 over H5921 them in mount H2022 Zion H6726 from henceforth H4480 H6258 , even forever H5704 H5769 .

|
|
9. Now, why are you shouting loudly? Is there no king with you? Has your counselor perished, so that anguish grips you like a woman in labor?
|
9. Now H6258 why H4100 dost thou cry out H7321 aloud H7452 ? is there no H369 king H4428 in thee? is thy counselor H3289 perished H6 ? for H3588 pangs H2427 have taken H2388 thee as a woman in travail H3205 .
|
|
10. Writhe and cry out, Daughter Zion, like a woman in labor. For now you will leave the city and camp in the open fields. You will go to Babylon; there you will be rescued; there the LORD will redeem you from the power of your enemies!
|
10. Be in pain H2342 , and labor to bring forth H1518 , O daughter H1323 of Zion H6726 , like a woman in travail H3205 : for H3588 now H6258 shalt thou go forth H3318 out of the city H4480 H7151 , and thou shalt dwell H7931 in the field H7704 , and thou shalt go H935 even to H5704 Babylon H894 ; there H8033 shalt thou be delivered H5337 ; there H8033 the LORD H3068 shall redeem H1350 thee from the hand H4480 H3709 of thine enemies H341 .
|
|

|
|
12. But they do not know the LORD's intentions or understand His plan, that He has gathered them like sheaves to the threshing floor.
|
12. But they H1992 know H3045 not H3808 the thoughts H4284 of the LORD H3068 , neither H3808 understand H995 they his counsel H6098 : for H3588 he shall gather H6908 them as the sheaves H5995 into the floor H1637 .
|
|
13. Rise and thresh, Daughter Zion, for I will make your horns iron and your hooves bronze, so you can crush many peoples. Then you will devote what they plundered to the LORD, their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.
|
13. Arise H6965 and thresh H1758 , O daughter H1323 of Zion H6726 : for H3588 I will make H7760 thine horn H7161 iron H1270 , and I will make H7760 thy hooves H6541 brass H5154 : and thou shalt beat in pieces H1854 many H7227 people H5971 : and I will consecrate H2763 their gain H1215 unto the LORD H3068 , and their substance H2428 unto the Lord H113 of the whole H3605 earth H776 .
