14:1 God appears and reigns

14Listen, a day is coming for Yahweh, when your plunder will be divided right in front of you, 2because I will assemble every country to battle against Yerushalem and the city will be captured. The houses will be plundered and the women raped. Half of the city will be led away into captivity, but the remainder of the people won’t be evicted from the city. 3Then Yahweh will go out and fight against those nations like when he fights on the day of battle. 4On that day, his feet will stand on the Mt. of Olives, which is just east of Yerushalem. The Mt. of Olives will be split in half between the east and the west by a very great valley, and half of the mountain will go back toward the north and half toward the south. 5Then you all will flee down the valley between Yahweh’s mountains, because the valley between those mountains will reach to Azel. You will flee just like you fled from the earthquake in the days of Yehudah’s King Uzziyah. Then my God Yahweh will come and all the holy ones will be with him. 6On that day, there’ll be no lightprecious things will freeze together. 7On that day (known only to Yahweh), there’ll no longer be day or night, because it’ll stay light at ‘night’.

8On that day, living waters will flow out of Yerushalem. Half of them will flow to the eastern sea and half to the western sea, both in summer and in winter.[ref] 9Yahweh will be king over all the world. On that day there will only be Yahweh, the one God—no other gods.

10All the land will be like the plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Yerushalem. Yerushalem will continue to be in the hills and remain in its own place, from the Benyamin Gate to the place where the first gate was, to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hanan’el to the king’s winepresses. 11It’ll be inhabited and never completely destroyed againYerushalem will live in security.[ref]

12The plague that Yahweh will use to attack all the nations that fought against Yerushalem will be that their flesh will rot away even while they’re still standing on their feet. Their eyes will rot in their sockets and their tongues will rot in their mouths.

13On that day, Yahweh will cause them to panicthey’ll grab hold of each other, and then they’ll start attacking each other. 14Yehudah will also fight against Yerushalem, and the wealth (gold, silver, and clothing) from all the surrounding countries will be collected together.

15That plague will also be on the horses and mules, the camels and donkeys, and on all the other animals in those camps.

16After that, all who remain in those nations that came against Yerushalem will instead go up from year to year to worship the king (army commander Yahweh), and to observe the celebration in shelters.[ref] 17It will happen that if anyone from all the countries in the world doesn’t go to Yerushalem to worship the king (army commander Yahweh) then Yahweh won’t send them any rain. 18If Egypt (Heb. Mitsrayim) doesn’t go, then they won’t get any rain. A plague from Yahweh will attack the nations that do not go to Yerushalem to observe the celebration in shelters. 19That will be the punishment for Egypt and the punishment for every country that doesn’t go to observe that celebration in shelters.

20On that day, the horses’ bells will say, “Dedicated to Yahweh,” and the basins in Yahweh’s residence will be like the bowls in front of the altar, 21because every pot in Yerushalem and Yehudah will be dedicated to army commander Yahweh and everyone who brings a sacrifice will eat from them and boil in them. On that day, there will no longer be any traders army commander Yahweh’s residence.
