9 Call this out among the nations: “Consecrate for war; Rouse the mighty ones; let draw near; let them come up—all the men of war! 10 Beat your? plowshares into swords, and your? pruning hooks into spears; let the weak say, ‘I am strong.’ 11 Hurry and come in, all nations from around, and gather together there. Bring down, O YHWH, Your mighty ones. 12 May they be roused and come up—the nations to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. For there I will sit to judge all the nations from around. 13 Send forth the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, go down, for the winepress is full; the wine vats overflow, for great is their wickedness! 14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision. For the day of YHWH is near in the valley of decision. 15 The sun and moon will grow dark, and the stars will withdraw their brightness. 16 And YHWH will roar from Zion, and from Jerusalem He will give forth His voice, and the heavens and the earth will quake, and YHWH will be a refuge for His people and a stronghold for the sons of Israel.
