Micah 4:1-7

The Mountain of the LORD 1In the last days the mountain of the LORD ’s temple will be established as the highest of the mountains; it will be exalted above the hills, and peoples will stream to it.

2Many nations will come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the temple of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.” The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

3He will judge between many peoples and will settle disputes for strong nations far and wide. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.

4Everyone will sit under their own vine and under their own fig tree, and no one will make them afraid, for the LORD Almighty has spoken.

5All the nations may walk in the name of their gods, but we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever.

The LORD’s Plan 6“In that day,” declares the LORD, “I will gather the lame; I will assemble the exiles and those I have brought to grief.

7I will make the lame my remnant, those driven away a strong nation. The LORD will rule over them in Mount Zion from that day and forever.
