Zechariah Chapter 14

1Behold, a day of ForeverOne comes, when your spoil will be divided in your midst.

2For 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.

3Then ForeverOne will go out and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.

4His 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.

5You 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. ForeverOne my God will come, and all the holy ones with you.

6It will happen in that day, that there will not be light, cold, or frost.

7It will be a unique day which is known to ForeverOne; not day, and not night; but it will come to pass, that at evening time there will be light.

8It 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; in summer and in winter will it be.

9ForeverOne will be King over all the earth. In that day ForeverOne will be one, and his name one.

10All 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 winepresses.

11Men will dwell therein, and there will be no more curse; but Jerusalem will dwell safely.

12This will be the plague with which ForeverOne will strike all the peoples who have warred 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.

13It will happen in that day, that a great panic from ForeverOne will be among them; and they will lay hold everyone on the hand of his neighbor, and his hand will rise up against the hand of his neighbor.

14Judah also will fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be gathered together: gold, and silver, and clothing, in great abundance.

15So will be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camel, and of the donkey, and of all the animals that will be in those camps, as that plague.

16It 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, ForeverOne of Armies, and to keep the feast of tents.

17It will be, that whoever of all the families of the earth doesn't go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, ForeverOne of Armies, on them there will be no rain.

18If 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 ForeverOne will strike the nations that don't go up to keep the feast of tents.

19This will be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that don't go up to keep the feast of tents.

20In that day there will be on the bells of the horses, "HOLY TO ForeverOne;" and the pots in ForeverOne's house will be like the bowls before the altar.

21Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to ForeverOne 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 ForeverOne of Armies.
