Micah 4:3 in Context — Micah 4

1 Y ACONTECERÁ en los postreros tiempos, que el monte de la casa de Jehová será constituído por cabecera de montes, y más alto que los collados, y correrán á él pueblos.

2 Y vendrán muchas gentes, y dirán: Venid, y subamos al monte de Jehová, y á la casa del Dios de Jacob; y enseñarános en sus caminos, y andaremos por sus veredas: porque de Sión saldrá la ley, y de Jerusalem la palabra de Jehová.

3 Y juzgará entre muchos pueblos, y corregirá fuertes gentes hasta muy lejos: y martillarán sus espadas para azadones, y sus lanzas para hoces: no alzará espada gente contra gente, ni más se ensayarán para la guerra.

4 Y cada uno se sentará debajo de su vid y debajo de su higuera, y no habrá quien amedrente: porque la boca de Jehová de los ejércitos lo ha hablado.

5 Bien que todos los pueblos anduvieren cada uno en el nombre de sus dioses, nosotros con todo andaremos en el nombre de Jehová nuestro Dios para siempre y eternalmente.
