10. Beat your plowshares into swords,and your pruning knives into spears;let the weakling boast, “I am a warrior!”
11. Hurry and come, all you neighboring peoples,assemble there!Bring down, Lord, your warriors!
12. Let the nations rouse themselves and come upto the Valley of Jehoshaphat;For there I will sit in judgmentupon all the neighboring nations.
13. Wield the sickle,for the harvest is ripe;Come and tread,for the wine press is full;The vats overflow,for their crimes are numerous.
14. Crowds upon crowdsin the Valley of Decision;For near is the day of the Lordin the Valley of Decision.
15. Sun and moon are darkened,and the stars withhold their brightness,
16. The Lord roars from Zion,and from Jerusalem raises his voice,The heavens and the earth quake,but the Lord will be a shelter for his people,a fortress for the people of Israel.
17. Then you will know that I the Lord am your God,dwelling on Zion, my holy mountain;Jerusalem will be holy,and strangers will never again travel through her.
