彌迦書4:1-5



4:1 末後的日子,耶和華殿的山必堅立,超乎諸山,高舉過於萬嶺;萬民都要流歸這山。
4:2 必有許多國的民前往,說:來吧,我們登耶和華的山,奔雅各上帝的殿。主必將他的道教訓我們;我們也要行他的路。因為訓誨必出於錫安;耶和華的言語必出於耶路撒冷。
4:3 他必在多國的民中施行審判,為遠方強盛的國斷定是非。他們要將刀打成犁頭,把槍打成鐮刀。這國不舉刀攻擊那國;他們也不再學習戰事。
4:4 人人都要坐在自己葡萄樹下和無花果樹下,無人驚嚇。這是萬軍之耶和華親口說的。
4:5 萬民各奉己神的名而行;我們卻永永遠遠奉耶和華─我們上帝的名而行。

It shall come to pass in the latter days
that the mountain of the house of the Lord
shall be established as the highest of the mountains,
and it shall be lifted up above the hills;
and peoples shall flow to it,
  and many nations shall come, and say:
Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the house of the God of Jacob,
that he may teach us his ways
and that we may walk in his paths.”
For out of Zion shall go forth the law,
and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
  He shall judge between many peoples,
and shall decide for strong nations far away;
and they shall beat their swords into plowshares,
and their spears into pruning hooks;
nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war anymore;
  but they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree,
and no one shall make them afraid,
for the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken.
  For all the peoples walk
each in the name of its god,
but we will walk in the name of the Lord our God
forever and ever.

    在彌迦的時代耶和華是以色列的上帝但是在末後的日子耶和華要成為萬民的上帝並且祂要賜下和平正如先知在這裡所說:「他們要將刀打成犁頭,把槍打成鐮刀。這國不舉刀攻擊那國;他們也不再學習戰事。人人都要坐在自己葡萄樹下和無花果樹下,無人驚嚇。」

    然而耶穌基督降生以後,透過福音的傳揚,萬民成為耶穌基督的門徒之後,上帝真的成就了,「在多國的民中施行審判,為遠方強盛的國斷定是非」。並且透過聖經,真的是「來吧,我們登耶和華的山,奔雅各上帝的殿。主必將他的道教訓我們;我們也要行他的路。因為訓誨必出於錫安;耶和華的言語必出於耶路撒冷」。萬國萬民透過耶穌基督的救恩,真的歸向上帝了!

    是的,我們要透過信耶穌為基督,與上帝建立正確的關係,然後我們才有真正的平安!
