2:4 He will judge disputes between nations;
he will settle cases for many peoples.
They will beat their swords into plowshares, 1
and their spears into pruning hooks. 2
Nations will not take up the sword against other nations,
and they will no longer train for war.
11:9 They will no longer injure or destroy
on my entire royal mountain. 3
For there will be universal submission to the Lord’s sovereignty,
just as the waters completely cover the sea. 4
72:3 The mountains will bring news of peace to the people,
and the hills will announce justice. 5
72:4 He will defend 6 the oppressed among the people;
he will deliver 7 the children 8 of the poor
and crush the oppressor.
72:5 People will fear 9 you 10 as long as the sun and moon remain in the sky,
for generation after generation. 11
72:6 He 12 will descend like rain on the mown grass, 13
like showers that drench 14 the earth. 15
72:7 During his days the godly will flourish; 16
peace will prevail as long as the moon remains in the sky. 17
4:3 He will arbitrate 18 between many peoples
and settle disputes between many 19 distant nations. 20
They will beat their swords into plowshares, 21
and their spears into pruning hooks. 22
Nations will not use weapons 23 against other nations,
and they will no longer train for war.
