Zechariah 14

1 Behold, a day has come to YHWH, And your spoil has been divided in your midst.

Behold, a day is coming unto the Lord, when thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.

2 And I have gathered all the nations to Jerusalem to battle, And the city has been captured, And the houses have been spoiled, And the women are lain with, Half the city has gone forth in a removal, And the remnant of the people are not cut off from the city.

And I will assemble all the nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be captured, and the houses plundered, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into exile, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

3 And YHWH has gone forth, And He has fought against those nations, As in the day of His fighting in a day of conflict.

Then will the Lord go forth, and fight against these nations, as on the day when he fought on the day of battle.

4 And His feet have stood, in that day, On the Mount of Olives, That [is] eastward before Jerusalem, And the Mount of Olives has been cleft at its midst, To the east, and to the west, a very great valley, And half of the mountain is removed toward the north, And half toward the south.

And his feet will stand on that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall be split in twain in its middle eastward and westward, making a very great valley; and half of the mount shall remove northward, and half of it southward.

5 And you have fled [to] the valley of My mountains, For the valley of the mountains joins to Azal, And you have fled as you fled before the shaking, In the days of Uzziah king of Judah, And my God YHWH has come in, All holy ones [are] with You.

And ye shall flee [from] the valley of my mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal; and ye shall flee, just as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of 'Uzziyah the king of Judah: and then will come the Lord my God, and all the saints with thee.

6 And it has come to pass in that day, The precious light is not, it is dense darkness,

And it shall come to pass on that day, that there shall be no light, but fleeting light and thick darkness;

7 And there has been one day, It is known to YHWH, not day nor night, And it has been at evening-time—there is light.

But it shall be one particular day which shall indeed be known as the Lord's, neither day nor night; but it shall come to pass, that at evening-time there shall be light.

8 And it has come to pass in that day, Living waters go forth from Jerusalem, Half of them to the Eastern Sea, And half of them to the Western Sea, It is in summer and in winter.

And it shall happen on that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem, the half of them toward the eastern sea, and the other half of them toward the western sea: in summer and in winter shall it be so.

9 And YHWH has become King over all the earth, In that day YHWH is one, and His Name one.

And the Lord will be king over all the earth: on that day shall the Lord be [acknowledged] one, and his name be one.

10 All the land is changed as a plain, From Gebo to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem, And she has been high, and has dwelt in her place, Even from the Gate of Benjamin To the place of the first gate, to the front gate, And from the Tower of Hananeel, To the wine-vats of the king.

All the land shall be changed as it were into a plain from Geba' to Rimmon to the south of Jerusalem; and she herself shall be elevated, and be inhabited on her former site, from the gate of Benjamin unto the place of the first gate, up to the corner gate, and from the tower of Chananel unto the king's wine-presses.

11 And they have dwelt in her, And destruction is no more, And Jerusalem has dwelt confidently.

And men shall dwell in it, and no destruction shall any more take place; but Jerusalem shall be inhabited in safety.

12 And this is the plague with which YHWH plagues all the peoples who have warred against Jerusalem: He has consumed away its flesh, And it is standing on its feet, And its eyes are consumed in their holes, And its tongue is consumed in their mouth.

And this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will afflict all the people that shall have come to battle against Jerusalem: The flesh of every one shall consume away while he standeth upon his feet, and his eyes shall consume away in their holes, and the tongue of every one shall consume away in his mouth.

13 And it has come to pass in that day, A great destruction [from] YHWH is among them, And they have each seized the hand of his neighbor, And his hand has gone up against the hand of his neighbor.

And it shall come to pass on that day, that a great confusion from the Lord shall be among them: and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbor, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbor.

14 And also Judah is fought with in Jerusalem, And the force of all the surrounding nations has been gathered, Gold, and silver, and apparel, in great abundance.

And also Judah will have to fight against Jerusalem: and there shall be gathered together the wealth of all the nations round about, gold, and silver, and garments, in great abundance.

15 And so is the plague of the horse, of the mule, Of the camel, and of the donkey, And of all the livestock that are in these camps, As this plague.

And thus shall be the plague of the horses, of the mules, of the camels, and of the asses, and of all the beasts that will be in these camps, just like this plague.

16 And it has come to pass, Everyone who has been left of all the nations, Who are coming in against Jerusalem, They have also gone up from year to year, To bow themselves to the King, YHWH of Hosts, And to celebrate the Celebration of the Shelters.

And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left out of all the nations who will have come against Jerusalem, yea, these shall go up year by year to bow down before the King, the Lord of hosts, and to celebrate the feast of tabernacles.

17 And it has come to pass, That he who does not go up of the families of the land to Jerusalem, To bow himself to the King, YHWH of Hosts, Even on them there is no shower.

And it shall happen, that whoso will not come up out of the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to bow down before the King, the Lord of hosts, —even upon these there shall be no rain.

18 And if the family of Egypt does not go up, nor come in, Then on them is the plague With which YHWH plagues the nations That do not go up to celebrate the Celebration of Shelters.

And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, then shall not [any rain fall] upon them also: this shall be the plague, wherewith the Lord will afflict the nations that will not come up to celebrate the feast of tabernacles.

19 This is the punishment of the sin of Egypt, And the punishment of the sin of all the nations, That do not go up to celebrate the Celebration of Shelters.

This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that will not come up to celebrate the feast of tabernacles.

20 In that day “Holy to YHWH” is [engraved] on bells of the horse, And the pots in the house of YHWH Have been as bowls before the altar.

On that day shall [every thing], even to the bells of the horses, be holy unto the Lord; and the pots in the Lord's house shall be like the bowls before the altar.

21 And every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah, Have been holy to YHWH of Hosts, And all those sacrificing have come in, And have taken of them, and boiled in them, And in that day there is no merchant anymore in the house of YHWH of Hosts!

And every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holy unto the Lord of hosts; and all those that sacrifice will come and take some of them, and seethe therein: and on that day there shall be no more any trader in the house of the Lord of host.
