Now it will come about that
(A)In the last days
The (B)mountain of the house of the Lord
Will be established [a]as the chief of the mountains,
And will be raised above the hills;
And (C)all the nations will stream to it.
And many peoples will come and say,
“Come, let’s go up to the mountain of the Lord,
To the house of the God of Jacob;
So that He may teach us [b]about His ways,
And that we may walk in His paths.”
For [c]the law will go out (D)from Zion
And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
And He will judge between the nations,
And will mediate for many peoples;
And (E)they will beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning knives.
(F)Nation will not lift up a sword against nation,
And never again will they learn war.
