1 Behold, a day of YHWH is coming, and your plunder will be divided in your midst, Behold, a day is coming for the LORD, when the spoil taken from you will be divided in your midst. A day of the LORD is coming, Jerusalem, when your possessions will be plundered and divided up within your very walls.
2 and I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem for battle. And the city will be captured, and the houses plundered, and the women ravished; and half of the city will go forth into exile, and the remnant of the people will not be cut off from the city. For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city shall be taken and the houses plundered and the women raped. Half of the city shall go out into exile, but the rest of the people shall not be cut off from the city. I will gather all the nations to Jerusalem to fight against it; the city will be captured, the houses ransacked, and the women raped. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be taken from the city.
3 And YHWH will go forth, and He will do battle against those nations, as in the day of His fighting in a day of battle. Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations as when he fights on a day of battle. Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations, as he fights on a day of battle.
4 And His feet will stand on that day upon the Mount of Olives, which is upon the face of Jerusalem from the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split, from half of it on the east and on the west, a very great valley; and half of the mountain will move toward the north, and half of it toward the south. On that day his feet shall stand on the Mount of Olives that lies before Jerusalem on the east, and the Mount of Olives shall be split in two from east to west by a very wide valley, so that one half of the Mount shall move northward, and the other half southward. On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south.
5 And you⁺ will flee by the valley of my mountains, for the valley of the mountains will reach to Azal; and you⁺ will flee, as when you⁺ fled from the face of the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. And YHWH my God will come, and all the holy ones with Him. 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 the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD my God will come, and all the holy ones with him. You will flee by my mountain valley, for it will extend to Azel. You will flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD my God will come, and all the holy ones with him.
6 And it will come to pass on that day, that there will not be light, cold, or frost. On that day there shall be no light, cold, or frost. On that day there will be neither sunlight nor cold, frosty darkness.
7 And it will be a unique day—it is known to YHWH—with no day and no night, and it will come to pass at the time of evening, that there will be light. And there shall be a unique day, which is known to the LORD, neither day nor night, but at evening time there shall be light. It will be a unique day—a day known only to the LORD—with no distinction between day and night. When evening comes, there will be light.
8 And it will come to pass, in that day, that will go forth living waters from Jerusalem—half of them toward the Eastern Sea, and half of them toward the Western Sea; in the summer and in the winter it will come to pass. On that day living waters shall flow out from Jerusalem, half of them to the eastern sea and half of them to the western sea. It shall continue in summer as in winter. On that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem, half of it east to the Dead Sea and half of it west to the Mediterranean Sea, in summer and in winter.
9 And YHWH will be King over all the earth; in that day YHWH will be one, and His name one. And the LORD will be king over all the earth. On that day the LORD will be one and his name one. The LORD will be king over the whole earth. On that day there will be one LORD, and his name the only name.
10 All the land will be turned into a plain, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem, and she will be raised up and dwell in her place, from the Gate of Benjamin to the place of the First Gate, to the Gate of the Corner, and from the Tower of Hananel to the winepresses of the king. The whole land shall be turned into a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. But Jerusalem shall remain aloft on its site from the Gate of Benjamin to the place of the former gate, to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s winepresses. The whole land, from Geba to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem, will become like the Arabah. But Jerusalem will be raised up high from the Benjamin Gate to the site of the First Gate, to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the royal winepresses, and will remain in its place.
11 And they will dwell in her, and there will be utter destruction no longer, and Jerusalem will dwell in safety. And it shall be inhabited, for there shall never again be a decree of utter destruction. Jerusalem shall dwell in security. It will be inhabited; never again will it be destroyed. Jerusalem will be secure.
12 And this will be the plague with which YHWH will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem: The rotting of his flesh, and he is standing on his feet; his eyes will rot in their sockets, and the tongue will rot in their mouth. And this shall be the 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. This is the plague with which the LORD will strike all the nations that fought 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 it will come to pass, in that day, that there will be a great panic from YHWH among them, and each man will seize the hand of his neighbor, and will raise his hand against the hand of his neighbor. And on that day a great panic from the LORD shall fall on them, so that each will seize the hand of another, and the hand of the one will be raised against the hand of the other. On that day people will be stricken by the LORD with great panic. They will seize each other by the hand and attack one another.
14 And also Judah will fight in Jerusalem, and the wealth of all the nations round about will be gathered together—gold, and silver, and garments, in great abundance. Even Judah will fight at Jerusalem. And the wealth of all the surrounding nations shall be collected, gold, silver, and garments in great abundance. Judah too will fight at Jerusalem. The wealth of all the surrounding nations will be collected—great quantities of gold and silver and clothing.
15 And so will be the plague on the horse, the mule, the camel, and the donkey, and on all the cattle that may be in those camps, as this plague. And a plague like this plague shall fall on the horses, the mules, the camels, the donkeys, and whatever beasts may be in those camps. A similar plague will strike the horses and mules, the camels and donkeys, and all the animals in those camps.
16 And it will come to pass that everyone remaining from all the nations coming against Jerusalem will go up, year by year, to bow down to the King, YHWH of Hosts, and to keep the feast of Booths. Then everyone who survives of all the nations that have come against Jerusalem shall go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Booths. Then the survivors from all the nations that have attacked Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD Almighty, and to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.
17 And it will come to pass that whoever does not go up from the families of the earth to Jerusalem, to bow down to the King, YHWH of Hosts, there will not be on them rain. And if any of the families of the earth do not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, there will be no rain on them. If any of the peoples of the earth do not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD Almighty, they will have no rain.
18 And if the family of Egypt does not go up and does not go in, then it is not upon them; this will be the plague with which YHWH strikes the nations who do not come up to celebrate the feast of Booths. And if the family of Egypt does not go up and present themselves, then on them there shall be no rain; there shall be the plague with which the LORD afflicts the nations that do not go up to keep the Feast of Booths. If the Egyptian people do not go up and take part, they will have no rain. The LORD will bring on them the plague he inflicts on the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.
19 This will be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that do not come up to celebrate the feast of Booths. This shall be the punishment to Egypt and the punishment to all the nations that do not go up to keep the Feast of Booths. This will be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.
20 On that day it will be on the bells of the horses: HOLY TO YHWH. And the pots in the house of YHWH will be like the bowls before the altar. And on that day there shall be inscribed on the bells of the horses, “Holy to the LORD.” And the pots in the house of the LORD shall be as the bowls before the altar. On that day holy to the Lord will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, and the cooking pots in the LORD’s house will be like the sacred bowls in front of the altar.
21 And every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be a holy thing to YHWH of hosts; and everyone sacrificing will come and will take from them and will cook in them. And there will be no longer a Canaanite in the house of YHWH of hosts on that day. And every pot in Jerusalem and Judah shall be holy to the LORD of hosts, so that all who sacrifice may come and take of them and boil the meat of the sacrifice in them. And there shall no longer be a trader in the house of the LORD of hosts on that day. Every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be holy to the LORD Almighty, and all who come to sacrifice will take some of the pots and cook in them. And on that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD Almighty.
