² In^(A) the last days^(B)
the mountain of the Lord’s house^(C) will be established
at the top of the mountains
and will be raised above the hills.
All nations will stream to it,^(D)
3 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.^(E)
He will teach us about his ways
so that we may walk in his paths.”
For instruction will go out of Zion
and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
⁴ He will settle disputes among the nations
and provide arbitration for many peoples.
They will beat their swords into plows
and their spears into pruning knives.^(F)
Nation will not take up the sword against nation,
and they will never again train for war.^(G)

⁹ All the nations are gathered together,
and the peoples are assembled.^(A)
Who among them can declare this,^(B)
and tell us the former things?
Let them present their witnesses
to vindicate themselves,
so that people may hear and say, “It is true.”

⁶ As for the foreigners who join themselves to the Lord
to minister to him, to love the name of the Lord,
and to become his servants—
all who keep the Sabbath without desecrating it
and who hold firmly to my covenant—
⁷ I will bring them to my holy mountain^(A)
and let them rejoice in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices
will be acceptable on my altar,^(B)
for my house will be called a house of prayer
for all nations.”^(C)

¹⁹ Lord, my strength and my stronghold,
my refuge in a time of distress,^(A)
the nations will come to you
from the ends of the earth, and they will say,
“Our ancestors inherited only lies,
worthless idols^(B) of no benefit at all.”
