1And it will be, in the last days the Mount of the House of LORD JEHOVAH is established at the top of the mountains, and higher than the hills, and all the nations shall be gathered to it 2And the many nations shall go and they shall say: “Come, we will go up to the mountain of LORD JEHOVAH and to the house of the God of Yaqob, and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his steps, for from Zion goes out the law and the word of LORD JEHOVAH from Jerusalem 3And you will judge among the nations and you will strike the strong nations that are at a distance, and they shall beat their swords into blades of plows and their spears into sickles, and people shall not pick up a sword against people, and they shall learn war no more 4And they shall dwell, each man under his vine and under his fig tree, and there shall not be one who molests them, because the mouth of LORD JEHOVAH of Hosts has spoken 5Because all of the nations shall walk, each man in the name of his god, and we will walk in The Name of LORD JEHOVAH our God for eternity, and to the eternity of eternities 6But in that day, says LORD JEHOVAH, I shall gather the distant ones and the scattered ones, I shall bring those near whom I afflicted 7And I shall make the remnant, the scattered and the distant ones, a strong people, and LORD JEHOVAH will reign over them in the mountain of Zion and in Jerusalem from now and unto eternity 8But you, tower of the cloudy Shepherd, of the daughter of Zion, your time has arrived and the first Ruler of the Kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem has come 9Therefore why have you done evil? Is there no King in you, or are your Counselors destroyed? For pains have seized you like a woman in labor 10Be in pain and be in hard labor, daughter of Zion, as a woman in labor, because from now you shall go out from the city and you shall camp in the wilderness and you shall go unto Babel and there you shall be saved, and there LORD JEHOVAH shall redeem you from the hand of your enemies 11Therefore many nations shall be assembled against you, those who have been saying: ”You shall be defiled, oh Zion, and our eye shall see it!” 12But they have not known the reasonings of LORD JEHOVAH, and they have not understood his thoughts, for he gathered them as the ears of corn of a threshing floor 13Arise and thresh them, daughter of Zion, because I shall make your horns of iron and your hooves of brass and you shall beat many nations into pieces, and you shall devote their possessions to LORD JEHOVAH, and their riches to The Lord of all the Earth The Peshitta Holy Bible Translated Translated by Glenn David Bauscher Glenn David Bauscher Lulu Publishing Copyright © 2018 Lulu Publishing 3rd edition Copyright © 2019 |
