Micah 4

The tone lifts to one of the Bible’s great visions of hope: “in the latter days” the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established as the highest, and the nations shall flow to it, saying, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD... that he may teach us his ways.” God will judge between many peoples, and “they shall beat their swords into plowshares,” so that nation shall not lift up sword against nation, and each shall sit unafraid under his own vine and fig tree. God promises to gather the lame and the outcast, to make the remnant a strong nation, and to reign over them in Zion.
