Zechariah 14

American Standard Version

1Behold, a dayH3117 of Jehovah cometh, when thy spoilH7998 shall be dividedH2505 in the midstH7130 of thee. 2For I will gatherH622 all nationsH1471 against JerusalemH3389 to battleH4421; and the cityH5892 shall be takenH3920, and the housesH1004 rifled, and the womenH802 ravished; and halfH2677 of the cityH5892 shall goH3318 forthH3318 into captivity, and the residue of the peopleH5971 shall not be cutH3772 off from the cityH5892. 3Then shall Jehovah goH3318 forthH3318, and fightH3898 against those nationsH1471, as when he foughtH3898 in the dayH3117 of battleH7128. 4And his feetH7272 shall standH5975 in that dayH3117 upon the mount of OlivesH2132, which is before JerusalemH3389 on the eastH4217; and the mount of OlivesH2132 shall be cleft in the midst thereof toward the eastH4217 and toward the westH3220, and there shall be a veryH3966 greatH1419 valleyH1516; and halfH2677 of the mountainH2022 shall removeH4185 toward the northH6828, and halfH2677 of it toward the southH5045. 5And ye shall fleeH5127 by the valleyH1516 of my mountainsH2022; for the valleyH1516 of the mountainsH2022 shall reachH5060 unto AzelH682; yea, ye shall fleeH5127, like as ye fledH5127 from before the earthquakeH7494 in the daysH3117 of UzziahH5818 kingH4428 of JudahH3063; and Jehovah my GodH430 shall comeH935, and all the holyH6918 onesH6918 with thee. 6And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that there shall not beH1961 lightH216; the bright ones shall withdraw themselves: 7but it shall beH1961 oneH259 dayH3117 which is knownH3045 unto Jehovah; not dayH3117, and not nightH3915; but it shall come to pass, that at eveningH6153 timeH6256 there shall beH1961 lightH216. 8And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that living watersH4325 shall goH3318 out from JerusalemH3389; halfH2677 of them toward the easternH6931 seaH3220, and halfH2677 of them toward the westernH314 seaH3220: in summerH7019 and in winterH2779 shall it beH1961.

9And Jehovah shall beH1961 KingH4428 over all the earthH776: in that dayH3117 shall Jehovah beH1961 oneH259, and his nameH8034 oneH259. 10All the landH776 shall be made like the ArabahH6160, from GebaH1387 to RimmonH7417 southH5045 of JerusalemH3389; and she shall be lifted up, and shall dwellH3427 in her placeH4725, from Benjamin’s gateH8179 unto the placeH4725 of the firstH7223 gateH8179, unto the corner gateH8179, and from the towerH4026 of HananelH2606 unto the king’sH4428 winepressesH3342. 11And men shall dwellH3427 therein, and there shall beH1961 no more curse; but JerusalemH3389 shall dwellH3427 safely.

12And this shall beH1961 the plagueH4046 wherewith Jehovah will smite all the peoplesH5971 that have warred against JerusalemH3389: their fleshH1320 shall consume awayH4743 while they standH5975 upon their feetH7272, and their eyesH5869 shall consume awayH4743 in their sockets, and their tongueH3956 shall consume awayH4743 in their mouthH6310. 13And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that a greatH7227 tumult from Jehovah shall beH1961 among them; and they shall lay holdH2388 every oneH376 on the handH3027 of his neighborH7453, and his handH3027 shall rise up against the handH3027 of his neighborH7453. 14And JudahH3063 alsoH1571 shall fightH3898 at JerusalemH3389; and the wealthH2428 of all the nationsH1471 roundH5439 about shall be gatheredH622 together, goldH2091, and silverH3701, and apparel, in great abundanceH7230. 15And soH3651 shall beH1961 the plagueH4046 of the horseH5483, of the muleH6505, of the camelH1581, and of the ass, and of all the beasts that shall beH1961 in those campsH4264, as that plagueH4046.

16And it shall comeH935 to pass, that every one that is leftH3498 of all the nationsH1471 that cameH935 against JerusalemH3389 shall goH935 up from yearH8141 to yearH8141 to worship the KingH4428, Jehovah of hostsH6635, and to keep the feastH2282 of tabernacles. 17And it shall beH1961, that whoso of all the familiesH4940 of the earthH776 goeth not up unto JerusalemH3389 to worship the KingH4428, Jehovah of hostsH6635, upon them there shall beH1961 no rainH1653. 18And if the familyH4940 of EgyptH4714 goH935 not up, and comeH935 not, neither shall it beH1961 upon them; there shall beH1961 the plagueH4046 wherewith Jehovah will smite the nationsH1471 that goH935 not up to keep the feastH2282 of tabernacles. 19This shall beH1961 the punishment of EgyptH4714, and the punishment of all the nationsH1471 that goH5927 not up to keep the feastH2282 of tabernacles. 20In that dayH3117 shall there beH1961 upon the bells of the horsesH5483, HOLYH6944 UNTO JEHOVAH; and the potsH5518 in Jehovah’s houseH1004 shall beH1961 like the bowlsH4219 before the altarH4196. 21Yea, every potH5518 in JerusalemH3389 and in JudahH3063 shall beH1961 holyH6944 unto Jehovah of hostsH6635; and all they that sacrificeH2076 shall comeH935 and takeH3947 of them, and boilH1310 therein: and in that dayH3117 there shall beH1961 no more a CanaaniteH3669 in the houseH1004 of Jehovah of hostsH6635.
