1Behold, the 1day of the Lord cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2For 1I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the 2women ravished; and 3half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the 4residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3Then shall the Lord go forth, 1and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4¶ And his feet 1shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be2a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
5And ye shall flee to the valley of athe mountains; bfor the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the 1earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and 2the Lord my God shall come, and all the 3saints with thee.
6And it shall come to pass in that day, athat the light shall 1not be bclear, norcdark:
7But ait shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at 1evening time it shall be light.
8And it shall be in that day, that1living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the aformer sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
9And 1the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.
101All the land shall be aturned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it 2shall be lifted up, and binhabited in her place, from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king's winepresses.
11And men shall 1dwell in it, and there shall be 2no more utter destruction; but 3Jerusalem ashall be safely inhabited.
12¶ 1And this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; 2Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.
13And it shall come to pass in that day, 1that a great tumult from the Lord shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour.
141And aJudah also shall fight bat Jerusalem; and 2the wealth of all the heathen round about shall be gathered together, gold, and silver, and apparel, in great abundance.
151And so shall be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camel, and of the ass, and of all the beasts that shall be in these tents, as this plague.
16¶ And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall 1even go up from year to year to worship the 2King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the 3feast of tabernacles.
17And it shall be, 1that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.
18And if the 1family of Egypt go not up, and come not, athat have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep 2the feast of tabernacles.
19This shall be the apunishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
20¶ In that day 1shall there be upon the abells of the horses, HOLINESS UNTO THE Lord; and the 2pots in the Lord's house shall be like the bowls before the altar.
21Yea, 1every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness unto the Lord of hosts: and 2all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and 3seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more the 4Canaanite in the 5house of the Lord of hosts.
