Zechariah 14:1-11
1BeholdH2009, a 1dayH3117 is comingH935 for the LordH3068 when 2the spoilH7998 taken from you will be dividedH2505 amongH7130 you. 2For I will 3gatherH622 allH3605 the nationsH1471 againstH413 JerusalemH3389 to battleH4421, and the cityH5892 will be capturedH3920, the 4housesH1004 plunderedH8155, the womenH802 ravishedH7693 and halfH2677 of the cityH5892 exiledH3318H1473, but the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 will not be cutH3772 offH3772 from the cityH5892. 3Then the LordH3068 will goH3318 forthH3318 and 5fightH3898 against thoseH1992 nationsH1471, as 6whenH3117 He fightsH3898 on a dayH3117 of battleH7128. 4In that dayH3117 His feetH7272 will 7standH5975 on the MountH2022 of OlivesH2132, whichH834 is in frontH6440 of JerusalemH3389 on the eastH6924; and the MountH2022 of OlivesH2132 will be 8splitH1234 in its middleH2677 from eastH4217 to westH3220 by a veryH3966 largeH1419 valleyH1516, so that halfH2677 of the mountainH2022 will moveH4185 toward the northH6828 and the other halfH2677 toward the southH5045. 5You will fleeH5127 by the valleyH1516 of My mountainsH2022, for the valleyH1516 of the mountainsH2022 will reachH5060 to AzelH682; yes, you will fleeH5127 justH3512 as you fledH5127 beforeH4480H6440 the 9earthquakeH7494 in the daysH3117 of UzziahH5818 kingH4428 of JudahH3063. 10Then the LordH3068, my GodH430, will comeH935, and allH3605 the holyH6918 onesH6918 with 11Him!
6In that dayH3117 there will be 12noH3808 lightH216; the 13luminariesH3368 will dwindleH7087. 7For it will be 14a uniqueH259 dayH3117 whichH1931 is 15knownH3045 to the LordH3068, neitherH3808 dayH3117 norH3808 nightH3915, but it will comeH1961 about that at 16eveningH6153 timeH6256 there will be lightH216.
8And in that dayH3117 17livingH2416 watersH4325 will flowH3318 out of JerusalemH3389, halfH2677 of them towardH413 the easternH6931 seaH3220 and the other halfH2677 towardH413 the westernH314 seaH3220; it will be in summerH7019 as well as in winterH2779.
9And the LordH3068 will be 18kingH4428 overH5921 allH3605 the earthH776; in that dayH3117 the LordH3068 will be the only 19oneH259, and His nameH8034 the only oneH259.
10AllH3605 the landH776 will be changedH5437 into a plainH6160 from 20GebaH1387 to 21RimmonH7417 southH5045 of JerusalemH3389; but 22Jerusalem will 23riseH7213 and 24remainH3427 on its siteH8478 from 25Benjamin’sH1144 GateH8179 as farH5704 as the placeH4725 of the FirstH7223 GateH8179 to the 26CornerH6438 GateH8179, and from the 27TowerH4026 of HananelH2606 to the king’sH4428 wineH3342 pressesH3342. 1128People will liveH3427 in it, and there will 29noH3808 longerH5750 be a curseH2764, for JerusalemH3389 will 30dwellH3427 in securityH983.
