Judgement in the Valley of Jehoshaphat

⁹ Proclaim this among the nations:
Prepare war,^*
   stir up the warriors.
Let all the soldiers draw near,
   let them come up.
¹⁰ Beat your ploughshares into swords,
   and your pruning-hooks into spears;
   let the weakling say, ‘I am a warrior.’

¹¹ Come quickly,^*
   all you nations all around,
   gather yourselves there.
Bring down your warriors, O Lord.
¹² Let the nations rouse themselves,
   and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat;
for there I will sit to judge
   all the neighbouring nations.

¹³ Put in the sickle,
   for the harvest is ripe.
Go in, tread,
   for the wine press is full.
The vats overflow,
   for their wickedness is great.
