12 And 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.

13 It 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;

14 Judah also will fight at Jerusalem.

sAnd the wealth of all the surrounding nations

Shall be gathered together:

Gold, silver, and apparel in great abundance.

15 tSuch also shall be the plague

On the horse and the mule,

On the camel and the donkey,

And on all the cattle that will be in those camps.

So shall this plague be.

The Nations Worship the King

16 And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall ugo up from year to year to vworship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep wthe Feast of Tabernacles. 17 xAnd it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, on them there will be no rain. 18 If the family of yEgypt will not come up and enter in, zthey shall have no rain; they shall receive the plague with which the Lord strikes the nations who do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. 19 This shall be the 9punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.
