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.

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.
14 Multitudes, multitudes,
in the valley of decision!
For (L)the day of the Lord is near
in the valley of decision.
15 (M)The sun and the moon are darkened,
and the stars withdraw their shining.
16 (N)The Lord roars from Zion,
and (O)utters his voice from Jerusalem,
(P)and the heavens and the earth quake.
But the Lord is (Q)a refuge to his people,
a stronghold to the people of Israel.
