ミカ書  4章 1~5節

“その終わりの日、主の家の山は、山々のかしらとして堅く立ち、もろもろの丘よりも高くそびえ立つ。そこへもろもろの民が流れて来る。
多くの国々が来て言う。「さあ、主の山、ヤコブの神の家に上ろう。主はご自分の道を私たちに教えてくださる。私たちはその道筋を進もう。」それは、シオンからみおしえが、エルサレムから主のことばが出るからだ。
主は多くの民族の間をさばき、遠く離れた強い国々に判決を下す。彼らはその剣を鋤に、その槍を鎌に打ち直す。国は国に向かって剣を上げず、もう戦うことを学ばない。
彼らはみな、それぞれ自分のぶどうの木の下や、いちじくの木の下に座るようになり、彼らを脅かす者はいない。まことに万軍の主の御口が告げる。
まことに、すべての民族は、それぞれ自分たちの神の名によって歩む。しかし、私たちは、世々限りなく、私たちの神、主の御名によって歩む。”

Micah 4:1-5 (NASB)

1 And it will come about in the last days That the mountain of the house of the Lord Will be established as the chief of the mountains. It will be raised above the hills, And the peoples will stream to it.

2 Many nations will come and say, “Come and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord And to the house of the God of Jacob, That He may teach us about His ways And that we may walk in His paths.” For from Zion will go forth the law, Even the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

3 And He will judge between many peoples And will render decisions for mighty, distant nations; Then they will hammer their swords into plowshares And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation will not lift up sword against nation, And never again will they train for war.

4 Each of them will sit under his vine And under his fig tree, With no one to make them afraid, For the mouth of the Lord of armies has spoken.

5 Though all the peoples walk, each in the name of his god, As for us, we will walk in the name of the Lord our God forever and ever.
