3:10 Beat your plowshares 1 into swords,
and your pruning hooks 2 into spears! 3
Let the weak say, ‘I too am a warrior!’ 4

2:14 Who knows?
Perhaps he will be compassionate and grant a reprieve, 5
and leave blessing in his wake 6 –
a meal offering and a drink offering for you to offer to the Lord your God! 7
2:17 Let the priests, those who serve the Lord, weep
from the vestibule all the way back to the altar. 8

please do not turn over your inheritance to be mocked,
to become a proverb 9 among the nations.
Why should it be said 10 among the peoples,
“Where is their God?”
2:32 It will so happen that
everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be delivered. 11
For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem 12 there will be those who survive, 13
just as the Lord has promised;
the remnant 14 will be those whom the Lord will call. 15
