Zechariah 14
1Behold, the days of the Lord come, and your spoils shall be divided in you. 2And I will gather all the Gentiles to Jerusalem to war, and the city shall be taken, andthe houses plundered, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, butthe rest of my people shall not be utterly cut off from the city. 3And the Lord shall go forth, and fight with those Gentiles as when he fought in the dayof war. 4And his feet shall stand in that day on the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalemon the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave asunder, half of it toward the east and the west, avery great division; and half the mountain shall lean to the north, and half of it to the south. 5And the valley of my mountains shall be closed up, and the valley of the mountains shallbe joined on to Jasod, and shall be blocked up as it was blocked up in the days of the earthquake, inthe days of Ozias king of Juda; and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with him. 6And it shall come to pass in that day that there shall be no light, 7and there shall be for one day cold and frost, and that dayshall be known to the Lord, andit shall notbe day nor night: but towards evening it shall be light. 8And in that day living water shall come forth out of Jerusalem; half of it toward theformer sea, and half of it toward the latter sea: and so shall it be in summer and spring. 9And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day there shall be one Lord, andhis name one, 10compassing all the earth, and the wilderness from Gabe to Remmon south of Jerusalem.And Rama shall remain in its place. From the gate of Benjamin to the place of the first gate, to the gateof the corners, and to the tower of Anameel, as far as the king's wine presses, 11they shall dwell in the city; and there shall be no more any curse, and Jerusalem shalldwell securely. 12And this shall be the overthrow with which the Lord will strike all the nations, as manyas have fought against Jerusalem; their flesh shall consume away while they are standing upon their feet,and their eyes shall melt out of their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth. 13And there shall be in that day a great panic from the Lord upon them; and they shalllay hold every man of the hand of his neighbor, and his hand shall be clasped with the hand of his neighbor. 14Juda also shall fight in Jerusalem; andGod shall gather the strength of all the nations round about, gold, and silver, and apparel,in great abundance. 15And this shall be the overthrow of the horses, and mules, and camels, and asses, andall the beasts that are in those camps, according to this overthrow. 16And it shall come to pass,that whoever shall be left of all the nations that came against Jerusalem, shall even comeup every year to worship the king, the Lord Almighty, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. 17And it shall come to pass,that whoever of all the families of the earth shall not come up to Jerusalem to worship theking, the Lord Almighty, even these shall be added to the others. 18And if the family of Egypt shall not go up, nor come; then upon them shall be the overthrowwith which the Lord shall strike all the nations, whichever of them shall not come up to keep the feastof tabernacles. 19This shall be the sin of Egypt, and the sin of all the nations, whoever shall not comeup to keep the feast of tabernacles. 20In that day there shall be upon the bridle of every horse Holiness to the Lord Almighty;and the caldrons in the house of the Lord shall be as bowls before the altar. 21And every pot in Jerusalem and in Juda shall be holy to the Lord Almighty: and all thatsacrifice shall come and take of them, and shall seethemeat in them: and in that day there shall be no more the Chananite in the house of the LordAlmighty.
