9 “Make this announcement among the nations:‘Prepare for war;call your warriors;gather all your soldiers and march!
10 Hammer the points of your ploughs into swordsand your pruning knives into spears.Even the weak must fight.
11 Hurry and come,all you surrounding nations,and gather in the valley.’ ”Send down, O Lord, your army to attack them.
12 “The nations must get readyand come to the Valley of Judgement.There I, the Lord, will sit to judgeall the surrounding nations.
13 They are very wicked;cut them down like cornat harvest time;crush them as grapes are crushedin a full winepressuntil the wine runs over.”
14 Thousands and thousandsare in the Valley of Judgement.It is there that the day of the Lordwill soon come.
15 The sun and the moon grow dark,and the stars no longer shine.
