⁹ Proclaim this among the nations:
^(A)Consecrate for war;^[a]
    stir up the mighty men.
Let all the men of war draw near;
    let them come up.
^10 (B)Beat your plowshares into swords,
    and ^(C)your pruning hooks into spears;
    let the weak say, “I am a warrior.”

^11 (D)Hasten and come,
    all you surrounding nations,
    and gather yourselves there.
^(E)Bring down your warriors, O Lord.
¹² Let the nations stir themselves up
    and come up to ^(F)the Valley of Jehoshaphat;
^(G)for there I will sit to judge
    all the surrounding nations.

^13 (H)Put in the sickle,
    ^(I)for the harvest is ripe.
^(J)Go in, tread,
    ^(K)for the winepress is full.
The vats overflow,
    for their evil is great.

⁹ Be broken,^[a] you peoples, and ^(A)be shattered;^[b]
    give ear, all you far countries;
strap on your armor and be shattered;
    strap on your armor and be shattered.
¹⁰ Take counsel together, but it will come to nothing;
    speak a word, ^(B)but it will not stand,
    for God ^(C)is with us.^[c]
