The Lord’s Reign in Zion
That the mountain of the Lord’s house
Shall be established on the top of the mountains,
And shall be exalted above the hills;
And peoples shall flow to it.
“Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
To the house of the God of Jacob;
He will teach us His ways,
And we shall walk in His paths.”
For out of Zion the law shall go forth,
And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
And rebuke strong nations afar off;
They shall beat their swords into aplowshares,
And their spears into1 pruning hooks;
Nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
bNeither shall they learn war anymore.
And no one shall make them afraid;
For the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken.
But awe will walk in the name of the Lord our God
Forever and ever.
Zion’s Future Triumph
a“I will assemble the lame,
bI will gather the outcast
And those whom I have afflicted;
