Isaiah 2:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 And [a]he shall judge among the nations, and [b]rebuke many people: they shall [c]break their swords also into mattocks, and their spears into scythes: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn [d]to fight anymore.
5 O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us [e]walk in the Law of the Lord.
6 Surely thou [f]hast forsaken thy people, the house of Jacob, because they are [g]full of the East manners, and are sorcerers as the Philistines, [h]and abound with strange children.
