The Lord’s Reign in Zion(A)
4 Now (B)it shall come to pass in the latter days
That the mountain of the Lord’s house
Shall be established on the top of the mountains,
And shall be exalted above the hills;
And peoples shall flow to it.
2 Many nations shall come and say,
“Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
To the house of the God of Jacob;
He will teach us His ways,
And we shall walk in His paths.”
For out of Zion the law shall go forth,
And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

And rebuke strong nations afar off;
They shall beat their swords into (C)plowshares,
And their spears into [a]pruning hooks;
Nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
(D)Neither shall they learn war anymore.

And distress them in His deep displeasure:

[b]On My holy hill of Zion.”
7 “I will declare the [c]decree:
The Lord has said to Me,
(B)‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.
8 Ask of Me, and I will give You
The nations for Your inheritance,
And the ends of the earth for Your possession.
9 (C)You shall [d]break them with a rod of iron;
You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ”

Be instructed, you judges of the earth.

And rejoice with trembling.

And you perish in the way,
When (D)His wrath is kindled but a little.
(E)Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.
