Zechariah:14
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Behold ,
a day is coming unto the Lord ,
when thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee .
*
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 .
*
Then will the Lord go forth ,
and fight against these nations ,
as on the day when he fought on the day of battle .
*
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 .
*
And ye shall flee 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 .
*
And it shall come to pass on that day ,
that there shall be no light ,
but fleeting light and thick darkness ;
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
And the Lord will be king over all the earth :
on that day shall the Lord be one ,
and his name be one .
*
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 .
*
And men shall dwell in it ,
and no destruction shall any more take place ;
but Jerusalem shall be inhabited in safety .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
And if the family of Egypt go not up ,
and come not ,
then shall not 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 .
*
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 .
*
On that day shall ,
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 .
*
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 .
