Zechariah 14:1–14

The Day of the Lord

14Behold, ^athe day of the Lord is coming,

And your ¹spoil will be divided in your midst.

²For ^bI will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem;

The city shall be taken,

The houses ²rifled,

And the women ravished.

Half of the city shall go into captivity,

But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

³Then the Lord will go forth

And fight against those nations,

As He fights in the day of battle.

⁴And in that day His feet will stand ^con the Mount of Olives,

Which faces Jerusalem on the east.

And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two,

From east to west,

^dMaking a very large valley;

Half of the mountain shall move toward the north

And half of it toward the south.

⁵Then you shall flee through My mountain valley,

For the mountain valley shall reach to Azal.

Yes, you shall flee

As you fled from the ^eearthquake

In the days of Uzziah king of Judah.

^fThus the Lord my God will come,

And ^gall the saints with ³You.

⁶It shall come to pass in that day

That there will be no light;

The ⁴lights will diminish.

⁷It shall be one day

^hWhich is known to the Lord

Neither day nor night.

But at ⁱevening time it shall happen

That it will be light.

⁸And in that day it shall be—

That living ^jwaters shall flow from Jerusalem,

Half of them toward ⁵the eastern sea

And half of them toward ⁶the western sea;

In both summer and winter it shall occur.

⁹And the Lord shall be ^kKing over all the earth.

In that day it shall be

^l“The Lord is one,”

And His name one.

¹⁰All the land shall be turned into a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. ⁷Jerusalem shall be raised up and ^minhabited in her place from Benjamin’s Gate to the place of the First Gate and the Corner Gate, ⁿand from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s winepresses.

¹¹The people shall dwell in it;

And ^ono longer shall there be utter destruction,

^pBut Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.

¹²And this shall be the plague with which the Lord will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem:

Their flesh shall ⁸dissolve while they stand on their feet,

Their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets,

And their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths.

¹³It shall come to pass in that day

That ^qa great panic from the Lord will be among them.

Everyone will seize the hand of his neighbor,

And raise ^rhis hand against his neighbor’s hand;

¹⁴Judah also will fight at Jerusalem.

^sAnd the wealth of all the surrounding nations

Shall be gathered together:

Gold, silver, and apparel in great abundance.
