Chapter 14
1 Behold , a day of Yahweh comes , when your plunder will be divided within you .
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle ; and the city will be taken , the houses rifled , and the women ravished . Half of the city will go out into captivity , and the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city .
3 Then Yahweh will go out and fight against those nations , as when he fought in the day of battle .
4 His feet will stand in that day on the Mount of Olives , which is before Jerusalem on the east ; and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west , making a very great valley . Half of the mountain will move toward the north , and half of it toward the south .
5 You shall flee by the valley of my mountains , for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azel. Yes , you shall flee , just like you fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah . Yahweh my God will come , and all the holy ones with you .
6 It will happen in that day that there will not be light, cold, or frost.
7 It will be a unique day which is known to Yahweh — not day , and not night ; but it will come to pass that at evening time there will be light.
8 It will happen in that day that living waters will go out from Jerusalem , half of them toward the eastern sea , and half of them toward the western sea . It will be so in summer and in winter .
9 Yahweh will be King over all the earth. In that day Yahweh will be one , and his name one .
10 All the land will be made like the Arabah , from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem ; and she will be lifted up and will dwell in her place , from Benjamin ’s gate to the place of the first gate , to the corner gate , and from the tower of Hananel to the king ’s wine presses .
11 Men will dwell therein , and there will be no more curse ; but Jerusalem will dwell safely.
12 This will be the plague with which Yahweh will strike all the peoples who have fought against Jerusalem : their flesh will consume away while they stand on their feet , and their eyes will consume away in their sockets , and their tongue will consume away in their mouth .
13 It will happen in that day that a great panic from Yahweh will be among them ; and they will each seize the hand of his neighbor , and his hand will rise up against the hand of his neighbor .
14 Judah also will fight at Jerusalem ; and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be gathered together : gold , silver , and clothing, in great abundance .
15 A plague like this will fall on the horse , on the mule , on the camel , on the donkey , and on all the animals that will be in those camps .
16 It will happen that everyone who is left of all the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King , Yahweh of Armies , and to keep the feast of booths .
17 It will be that whoever of all the families of the earth doesn’t go up to Jerusalem to worship the King , Yahweh of Armies , on them there will be no rain .
18 If the family of Egypt doesn’t go up and doesn’t come , neither will it rain on them . This will be the plague with which Yahweh will strike the nations that don’t go up to keep the feast of booths .
19 This will be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that don’t go up to keep the feast of booths .
20 In that day there will be inscribed on the bells of the horses , " HOLY TO YAHWEH "; and the pots in Yahweh ’s house will be like the bowls before the altar .
21 Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to Yahweh of Armies ; and all those who sacrifice will come and take of them , and cook in them . In that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of Yahweh of Armies .
