He shall judge between the nations,
    and shall decide for many peoples;
and they shall beat their swords into plowshares,
    and their spears into pruning hooks;
nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
    neither shall they learn war any more.[a]

Judgment Pronounced on Arrogance

O house of Jacob,
    come, let us walk
    in the light of the Lord.

    the house of Jacob,
because they are full of diviners[b] from the east
    and of soothsayers like the Philistines,
    and they strike hands with foreigners.
