(Mic 4:1) But in the last days it shall come to pass, {that} the mountain of the house of the Lord shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it.
(Mic 4:2) And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
(Mic 4:3) And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
(Mic 4:4) But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make {them} afraid: for the mouth of the Lord of hosts hath spoken {it}.
(Mic 4:5) For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.
(Mic 4:6) In that day, saith the Lord, will I assemble her that halteth, and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted;
(Mic 4:7) And I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off a strong nation: and the Lord shall reign over them in mount Zion from henceforth, even for ever.
(Mic 4:8) And thou, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, even the first dominion; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem.
(Mic 4:9) Now why dost thou cry out aloud? {is there} no king in thee? is thy counseller perished? for pangs have taken thee as a woman in travail.
(Mic 4:10) Be in pain, and labour to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: for now shalt thou go forth out of the city, and thou shalt dwell in the field, and thou shalt go {even} to Babylon; there shalt thou be delivered; there the Lord shall redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.
(Mic 4:11) Now also many nations are gathered against thee, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look upon Zion.
(Mic 4:12) But they know not the thoughts of the Lord, neither understand they his counsel: for he shall gather them as the sheaves into the floor.
(Mic 4:13) Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion: for I will make thine horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass: and thou shalt beat in pieces many people: and I will consecrate their gain unto the Lord, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth.
