Zechariah 14 |
1 |
Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be
divided in the midst of thee. |
2 |
For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle;
and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women
ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and
the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the
city. |
3 |
Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those
nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. |
4 |
And his feet shall 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 be a very great valley; and half
of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it
toward the south. |
5 |
And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the
valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall
flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of
Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the
saints with thee. |
6 |
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall
not be clear, nor dark: |
7 |
But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not
day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time
it shall be light. |
8 |
And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out
from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of
them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it
be. |
9 |
And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day
shall there be one LORD, and his name one. |
10 |
All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon
south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited 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. |
11 |
And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter
destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited. |
12 |
And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite
all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their 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. |
13 |
And it shall come to pass in that day, that 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. |
14 |
And Judah also shall fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of
all the heathen round about shall be gathered together, gold, and
silver, and apparel, in great abundance. |
15 |
And 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 even go up from
year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep
the feast of tabernacles. |
17 |
And it shall be, that 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. |
18 |
And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have
no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the LORD will smite
the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of
tabernacles. |
19 |
This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of
all nations that come not up to keep the feast of
tabernacles. |
20 |
In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses,
HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the LORD's house shall be
like the bowls before the altar. |
21 |
Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness
unto the LORD of hosts: and all they that sacrifice shall come
and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall
be no more the Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts. |
