1 Behold, ^xa day is coming for the Lord, when the spoil taken from you will be divided in your midst. 2 For ^yI will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and ^zthe city shall be taken ^aand the houses plundered ^band the women raped. ^cHalf of the city shall go out into exile, but the rest of the people shall not be cut off from the city. 3 ^dThen the Lord will go out and fight against those nations as when he fights on a day of battle. 4 ^eOn that day his feet shall stand ^fon ^gthe Mount of Olives that lies before Jerusalem on the east, and ^gthe Mount of Olives shall be split in two from east to west by ^ha very wide valley, so that one half of the Mount shall move northward, and the other half southward. 5 And you shall flee to the valley of my mountains, for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azal. And you shall flee as you fled from ⁱthe earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the Lord my God will come, and all the holy ones with him.¹

6 ^eOn that day ^jthere shall be ^jno light, cold, or frost.² 7 ^kAnd there shall be a unique³ day, ^lwhich is known to the Lord, neither day nor night, but ^mat evening time there shall be light.

8 ^eOn that day ⁿliving waters shall flow out from Jerusalem, half of them to ^othe eastern sea⁴ and half of them to ^othe western sea.^{5 p}It shall continue in summer as in winter.

9 And ^qthe Lord will be king over all the earth. ^rOn that day the Lord will be ^sone and ^this name one.

12 And this shall be ^ethe plague with which the Lord will strike all the peoples that wage war against Jerusalem: their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths.

13 And ^fon that day a great panic from the Lord shall fall on them, so that ^geach will seize the hand of another, and the hand of the one will be raised against the hand of the other. 14 Even ^hJudah will fight at Jerusalem.¹ And ⁱthe wealth of all the surrounding nations shall be collected, gold, silver, and garments in great abundance. 15 And ^ja plague like this plague shall fall on the horses, the mules, the camels, the donkeys, and whatever beasts may be in those camps.
