2:3 Therefore the Lord says this: “Look, I am devising disaster for this nation!
It will be like a yoke from which you cannot free your neck.
You will no longer
for it will be a time of catastrophe.
4:3 He will arbitrate
and settle disputes between many
They will beat their swords into plowshares,
and their spears into pruning hooks.
Nations will not use weapons
and they will no longer train for war.
5:7 Those survivors from
in the midst of many nations.
They will be like the dew the Lord sends,
like the rain on the grass,
that does not hope for men to come
or wait around for humans to arrive.
