Messiah Will Protect Remnant People

Open in the reader →

1The last ruler of that time will be left alive, when the multitude of his hosts has been struck down by the sword; and he will be bound, and they will bring him up to Mount Zion. And my Messiah will convict him of all his impieties, and will set before him all the wicked deeds of his hosts.

2And afterward he will put him to death, and he will protect the rest of my people, those who are found in the place that I have chosen.

3And his dominion will stand forever, until the world of corruption comes to its end, and until the times spoken of before are fulfilled.

4This is your vision, and this is its interpretation.”
