1A day is coming for the LORD to act, and the plunder taken from you will be shared out while you stand by.
2I shall gather all the nations to make war on Jerusalem; the city will be taken, the houses ransacked, and the women raped. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the population will not be taken away from the city.
3Then the LORD will go out and fight against the nations, fighting as on a day of battle.
4On that day his feet will stand on the mount of Olives, which lies to the east of Jerusalem, and the mount will be cleft in two by an immense valley running east and west; half the mount will move northwards and half southwards.
5The valley between the hills will be blocked, for the new valley between them will reach as far as Asal. It will be blocked as it was by the earthquake in the time of King Uzziah of Judah. Then the LORD my God will appear attended by all the holy ones.
6On that day there will be neither heat nor cold nor frost.
7It will be one continuous day, whose coming is known only to the LORD; there will be no distinction between day and night; even in the evening there will be light.
8On that day, whether in summer or in winter, running water will issue from Jerusalem, half flowing to the eastern sea and half to the western sea.
9The LORD will become king over all the earth; on that day he will be the only LORD and his name the only name.
10The whole land will become like the Arabah from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. But Jerusalem will stand high in her place, and be full of people from the Benjamin Gate to the point where the former gate stood, to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king's winepresses.
11Jerusalem will be inhabited, and never again will a ban for her destruction be laid on her; all will live there in security.
12The LORD will strike with this plague all the nations who warred 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.
13On that day a great panic sent by the LORD will fall on them, with everyone laying hands on his neighbour and attacking him.
14Judah too will fight at Jerusalem, and the wealth of the surrounding nations will be gathered up -- gold and silver and clothing in great quantities.
15Plague will also be the fate of horse and mule, camel and donkey, the fate of every animal in those armies.
16Any survivors among the nations which fought against Jerusalem are to go up year by year to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, and to keep the pilgrim-feast of Tabernacles.
17Should any of the families of the earth not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of Hosts, no rain will fall on them.
18If any family of Egypt does not go up and enter the city, then the same disaster will overtake it as that which the LORD will inflict on any nation which does not go up to keep the feast.
19This will be the punishment which befalls Egypt and any nation which does not go up to keep the feast of Tabernacles.
20On that day “Holy to the LORD” will be inscribed on the horses' bells, and the pots in the house of the LORD will be like the sacred bowls before the altar.
21Every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be holy to the LORD of Hosts, and all who come to sacrifice will use them for boiling the flesh of the sacrifice. When that time comes, no longer will any trader be seen in the house of the LORD of Hosts.
