\par }\ChapOne{1}{\PP \VerseOne{1}In
the
eighth
month,
in
the
second
year
of
Darius,
came
the
word
of
Jehovah unto
Zechariah
the
prophet,
the
son
of
Berechiah,
the
son
of
Iddo,
saying,
\VS{2}Jehovah hath
been very wroth
with
your
fathers.
\VS{3}And thou shalt
say unto
them,
Thus saith
Jehovah
of
hosts:
Return unto
me, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts,
and
I
will
return unto
you, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts.
\VS{4}Be ye
not
as
your
fathers, unto
whom
the
former
prophets
cried,
saying,
Thus saith
Jehovah
of
hosts:
Turn ye
now
from
your
evil
ways,
and
from
your
evil
doings;
but
they
did
not hearken
nor attend unto
me, saith
Jehovah.
\VS{5}Your
fathers,
where
are
they?
and
the
prophets, do
they
live for
ever?
\VS{6}But
my
words
and
my
statutes,
which
I
commanded
my
servants
the
prophets,
did
they
not
overtake
your
fathers?
And
they
turned
and
said,
Like
as
Jehovah
of
hosts
thought
to
do unto
us, according
to
our
ways
and according
to
our
doings,
so hath
he dealt
with
us.
\VS{7}Upon
the
four
and
twentieth
day
of
the
eleventh
month,
which
is
the
month
Shebat,
in
the
second
year
of
Darius,
came
the
word
of
Jehovah unto
Zechariah
the
prophet,
the
son
of
Berechiah,
the
son
of
Iddo,
saying,
\VS{8}I
saw
by
night,
and
behold,
a
man
riding
upon
a
red
horse,
and
he
stood
among
the myrtle-trees
that
were
in
the low valley;
and
behind
him
were
red, bay,
and
white
horses.
\VS{9}And
I
said,
My
lord,
what
are
these?
And
the
angel
that
talked
with
me
said unto
me,
I
will shew thee
what
these
are.
\VS{10}And
the
man
that
stood
among
the myrtle-trees
answered
and
said,
These
are
they
whom
Jehovah hath
sent
to
walk
to
and
fro
through
the
earth.
\VS{11}And
they
answered
the
angel
of
Jehovah
that
stood
among
the myrtle-trees,
and
said,
We
have
walked
to
and
fro
through
the
earth,
and
behold,
all
the
earth sitteth
still
and
is
at
rest.
\VS{12}And
the
angel
of
Jehovah
answered
and
said,
Jehovah
of
hosts,
how
long wilt thou
not
have
mercy
on
Jerusalem
and
on
the
cities
of
Judah,
against
which thou hast
had
indignation
these
seventy
years?
\VS{13}And
Jehovah
answered
the
angel
that
talked
with
me
good
words,
comforting
words.
\VS{14}And
the
angel
that
talked
with
me
said unto
me,
Cry,
saying,
Thus saith
Jehovah
of
hosts:
I
am
jealous
for
Jerusalem
and
for
Zion
with
a
great
jealousy,
\VS{15}and
I
am wroth
exceedingly
with
the
nations
that
are
at
ease;
for
I
was
but
a
little wroth,
and
they
helped forward
the affliction.
\VS{16}Therefore
thus saith
Jehovah:
I
am
returned
to
Jerusalem
with
mercies:
my
house
shall
be
built
in
it, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts,
and
the line
shall
be
stretched forth
upon
Jerusalem.
\VS{17}Cry
further,
saying,
Thus saith
Jehovah
of
hosts:
My
cities
shall
yet
overflow
with
prosperity,
and
Jehovah
shall
yet
comfort
Zion,
and
shall
yet
choose
Jerusalem.
\VS{18}And I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and behold four horns.
\VS{19}And I said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these? And he said to me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
\VS{20}And Jehovah shewed me four craftsmen.
\VS{21}And I said, What come these to do? And he spoke, saying, Those are the horns which scattered Judah, so that no man lifted up his head; but these are come to affright them, to cast out the horns of the nations, which lifted up the horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.

\par }\Chap{2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
I
lifted
up mine
eyes,
and
saw,
and
behold
a
man
with
a measuring line
in
his hand.
\VS{2}And
I
said, Whither goest thou?
And
he
said unto
me,
To measure
Jerusalem,
to
see
what
is
the breadth thereof,
and
what
is
the length thereof.
\VS{3}And
behold,
the angel
that talked
with
me went forth;
and another angel went forth
to meet
him,
\VS{4}and
said unto
him, Run,
speak
to
this young
man,
saying, Jerusalem
shall
be inhabited
as towns
without walls
for
the multitude
of
men
and cattle therein;
\VS{5}and
I, saith Jehovah,
I
will
be unto
her
a wall
of fire round
about,
and
will
be
the glory
in
the midst
of
her.
\VS{6}Ho, ho! flee
from
the land
of
the north, saith Jehovah;
for
I
have scattered
you abroad
as
the four winds
of
the heavens, saith Jehovah.
\VS{7}Ho!
escape, Zion,
that dwellest
with
the daughter
of Babylon.
\VS{8}For thus saith Jehovah
of hosts:
After
the glory, hath
he
sent
me unto
the nations
that
made
you
a spoil;
for
he
that toucheth
you toucheth
the apple
of
his eye.
\VS{9}For behold,
I
will shake
my hand
upon
them,
and
they
shall
become
a spoil
to
those
that
served
them:
and ye
shall know
that
Jehovah
of hosts hath sent
me.
\VS{10}Sing aloud
and rejoice, daughter
of
Zion;
for behold,
I come,
and
I
will dwell
in
the midst
of thee, saith
Jehovah.
\VS{11}And many nations
shall
join themselves
to Jehovah
in
that day,
and
shall
be unto me
for
a
people;
and I
will
dwell
in
the midst
of thee,
and thou shalt know
that Jehovah
of hosts hath sent me unto thee.
\VS{12}And
Jehovah
shall inherit Judah [as]
his portion
in
the holy land,
and
shall
yet choose
Jerusalem.
\VS{13}Let
all flesh
be silent
before
Jehovah;
for
he
is risen
up
out
of
his holy habitation.

\par }\Chap{3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
he shewed
me
Joshua
the
high
priest
standing
before
the
Angel
of
Jehovah,
and
Satan
standing
at
his
right
hand
to resist
him.
\VS{2}And
Jehovah
said unto
Satan,
Jehovah
rebuke thee,
O
Satan! Yea,
Jehovah
that hath
chosen
Jerusalem
rebuke thee!
Is
not
this
a
brand
plucked
out
of
the
fire?
\VS{3}And
Joshua
was
clothed
with
filthy
garments,
and
stood
before
the
Angel.
\VS{4}And
he
spoke
and
said unto
those
that
stood
before
him,
saying,
Take
away
the
filthy
garments
from
off
him.
And unto
him
he
said,
See,
I
have caused thine
iniquity
to
pass
from thee,
and
I
clothe thee
with festival-robes.
\VS{5}And
I
said,
Let
them
set
a
pure
turban
upon
his
head.
And
they
set
the
pure
turban
upon
his
head,
and
clothed
him
with
garments;
and
the
Angel
of
Jehovah
stood
by.
\VS{6}And
the
Angel
of
Jehovah protested unto
Joshua,
saying,
\VS{7}Thus saith
Jehovah
of
hosts:
If thou wilt
walk
in
my
ways,
and
if thou wilt
keep
my
charge,
then thou shalt
also
judge
my
house,
and shalt
also
keep
my courts;
and
I
will
give thee
a
place
to
walk
among
these
that
stand
by.
\VS{8}Hear
now,
Joshua
the
high
priest, thou
and thy
fellows
that
sit
before thee —
for
they
are
men
of portent —
for
behold,
I
will
bring
forth
my
servant
the
Branch.
\VS{9}For
behold,
the
stone
that
I
have
laid
before
Joshua —
upon
one
stone
are
seven
eyes;
behold,
I
will engrave
the graving thereof, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts,
and
I
will
remove
the
iniquity
of
this
land
in
one
day.
\VS{10}In
that
day, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts,
shall ye
invite
every
man
his neighbour
under
the
vine
and
under
the fig-tree.

\par }\Chap{4}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
the
angel
that
talked
with
me
came
again,
and waked
me,
as
a
man
that
is wakened
out
of
his
sleep.
\VS{2}And
he
said unto
me,
What seest thou?
And
I
said,
I
see,
and
behold,
a lamp-stand
all
of
gold,
with
a
bowl
upon
the
top
of
it,
and
its
seven
lamps
thereon,
seven [lamps]
and
seven
pipes
to
the
lamps,
which
are
upon
the
top thereof;
\VS{3}and
two olive-trees
beside
it,
one
on
the
right
of
the
bowl,
and
the
other
on
the
left
of
it.
\VS{4}And
I
answered
and
spoke
to
the
angel
that
talked
with
me,
saying,
What
are
these,
my
lord?
\VS{5}And
the
angel
that
talked
with
me
answered
and
said unto
me, Knowest thou
not
what
these
are?
And
I
said,
No,
my
lord.
\VS{6}And
he
answered
and
spoke unto
me,
saying,
This
is
the
word
of
Jehovah unto
Zerubbabel,
saying,
Not
by
might,
nor
by
power,
but
by
my
Spirit, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts.
\VS{7}Who art thou,
O
great
mountain?
before
Zerubbabel [thou dost
become]
a
plain;
and
he
shall
bring
forth
the head-stone
with
shoutings:
Grace,
grace unto
it!
\VS{8}And
the
word
of
Jehovah
came unto
me,
saying,
\VS{9}The
hands
of
Zerubbabel
have
laid
the
foundation
of
this
house;
and
his
hands
shall
finish
it:
and thou shalt
know
that
Jehovah
of
hosts hath
sent
me unto
you.
\VS{10}For
who hath
despised
the
day
of
small
things?
Yea,
they
shall
rejoice [even]
those
seven —
and
shall
see
the plummet
in
the
hand
of
Zerubbabel:
these
are
the
eyes
of
Jehovah,
which run
to
and fro
in
the
whole
earth.
\VS{11}And
I
answered
and
said unto
him,
What
are
these
two olive-trees
on
the
right
of
the lamp-stand
and
on
its
left?
\VS{12}And
I
answered
the
second
time
and
said unto
him,
What
are
the
two olive-branches
which
are
beside
the
two
golden tubes
that empty
the
gold
out
of
themselves?
\VS{13}And
he
spoke
to
me,
saying, Knowest thou
not
what
these
are?
And
I
said,
No,
my
lord.
\VS{14}And
he
said,
These
are
the
two
sons
of
oil,
that
stand
before
the
Lord
of
the
whole
earth.

\par }\Chap{5}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
I
lifted
up mine
eyes
again,
and
saw,
and
behold,
a flying roll.
\VS{2}And
he
said unto
me,
What seest thou?
And
I
said,
I
see
a flying roll:
the
length thereof
is
twenty
cubits,
and
the
breadth thereof
ten
cubits.
\VS{3}And
he
said unto
me,
This
is
the
curse
that goeth
forth
over
the
face
of
the
whole
land:
for
every
one
that stealeth
shall
be cut
off
according
to
it
on
this
side;
and
every
one
that sweareth
shall
be cut
off
according
to
it
on
that
side.
\VS{4}I
will cause
it
to
go
forth, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts,
and
it
shall
enter
into
the
house
of
the
thief,
and
into
the
house
of
him
that sweareth
falsely
by
my
name;
and
it
shall lodge
in
the
midst
of
his
house,
and
shall
consume
it
with
the
timber thereof
and
the
stones thereof.
\VS{5}And
the
angel
that
talked
with
me
went
forth,
and
said unto
me,
Lift
up
now thine
eyes,
and
see
what
is
this
that goeth
forth.
\VS{6}And
I
said,
What
is
it?
And
he
said,
This
is
the
ephah
that goeth
forth.
And
he
said,
This
is
their resemblance
in
all
the
land.
\VS{7}And
behold,
there
was
lifted
up
a
round plate
of
lead;
and
this
is
a
woman
that sitteth
in
the
midst
of
the
ephah.
\VS{8}And
he
said,
This
is
Wickedness:
and
he
cast
her
into
the
midst
of
the
ephah;
and
he
cast
the
weight
of
lead
upon
the
mouth thereof.
\VS{9}And
I
lifted
up mine
eyes,
and
saw,
and
behold,
there
came
out
two
women,
and
the
wind
was
in
their
wings;
and
they
had
wings
like
the
wings
of
a
stork;
and
they
lifted
up
the
ephah
between
the
earth
and
the
heavens.
\VS{10}And
I
said
to
the
angel
that
talked
with
me, Whither do
these carry
the
ephah?
\VS{11}And
he
said unto
me,
To
build
it
a
house
in
the
land
of
Shinar;
and
it
shall
be
established,
and
set
there
upon
its own base.

\par }\Chap{6}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
I
lifted
up mine
eyes
again,
and
saw,
and
behold,
there
came
four
chariots
out
from
between
two
mountains;
and
the
mountains
were
mountains
of
brass.
\VS{2}In
the
first
chariot
were
red
horses;
and
in
the
second
chariot
black
horses;
\VS{3}and
in
the
third
chariot
white
horses;
and
in
the
fourth
chariot grisled,
strong
horses.
\VS{4}And
I
spoke
and
said unto
the
angel
that
talked
with
me,
What
are
these,
my
lord?
\VS{5}And
the
angel
answered
and
said unto
me,
These
are
the
four
spirits
of
the
heavens,
which
go
forth
from
standing
before
the
Lord
of
all
the
earth.
\VS{6}That
in
which
are
the
black
horses goeth
forth
into
the
north
country;
and
the
white
go
forth
after
them;
and
the grisled
go
forth towards
the
south
country;
\VS{7}and
the
strong
go
forth,
and
seek
to
go
that
they
may
walk
to
and
fro
through
the
earth.
And
he
said,
Go,
walk
to
and
fro
through
the
earth.
And
they
walked
to
and
fro
through
the
earth.
\VS{8}And
he
cried unto
me,
and
spoke unto
me,
saying,
See,
these
that
go
forth towards
the
north
country
have quieted
my
spirit
in
the
north
country.
\VS{9}And
the
word
of
Jehovah
came unto
me,
saying,
\VS{10}Take [gifts]
of
them
of
the captivity,
of
Heldai,
of
Tobijah,
and
of
Jedaiah,
and
come thou
the
same
day,
and
enter
into
the
house
of
Josiah
the
son
of
Zephaniah, whither
they
are
come
from
Babylon;
\VS{11}yea,
take
silver
and
gold,
and
make
crowns,
and
set [them]
upon
the
head
of
Joshua
the
son
of
Jehozadak,
the
high
priest;
\VS{12}and
speak unto
him,
saying,
Thus speaketh
Jehovah
of
hosts,
saying,
Behold
a
man
whose
name
is [the]
Branch;
and
he
shall
grow
up
from
his
own
place,
and
he
shall
build
the
temple
of
Jehovah:
\VS{13}even
he
shall
build
the
temple
of
Jehovah;
and
he
shall
bear
the
glory,
and
shall
sit
and
rule
upon
his
throne;
and
he
shall
be
a
priest
upon
his
throne;
and
the
counsel
of
peace
shall
be
between
them
both.
\VS{14}And
the
crowns
shall
be
for
Helem,
and
for
Tobijah,
and
for
Jedaiah,
and
for
Hen
the
son
of
Zephaniah,
for
a
memorial
in
the
temple
of
Jehovah.
\VS{15}And
they
that
are
far
off
shall
come
and
build
at
the
temple
of
Jehovah:
and ye
shall
know
that
Jehovah
of
hosts hath
sent
me unto
you.
And [this]
shall
come
to
pass,
if ye
will
diligently hearken
to
the
voice
of
Jehovah
your

\par }\Chap{7}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
it
came
to
pass
in
the
fourth
year
of
king
Darius,
that
the
word
of
Jehovah
came unto
Zechariah
on
the
fourth [day]
of
the
ninth
month, [even]
in
Chislev,
\VS{2}when
Bethel
had
sent Sherezer
and Regem-melech,
and
his
men,
to supplicate
Jehovah,
\VS{3}[and]
to
speak unto
the
priests
that
were
in
the
house
of
Jehovah
of
hosts,
and
to
the
prophets,
saying,
Should
I
weep
in
the
fifth
month, separating myself,
as
I
have
done
now
so
many
years?
\VS{4}And
the
word
of
Jehovah
of
hosts
came unto
me,
saying,
\VS{5}Speak unto
all
the
people
of
the
land,
and
to
the
priests,
saying,
When ye
fasted
and
mourned
in
the
fifth
and
in
the
seventh [month],
even
those
seventy
years, did ye
really
fast unto
me, [even] unto
me?
\VS{6}And
when ye
ate,
and
when ye
drank,
was
it
not
you
that were
eating
and
drinking?
\VS{7}Are
not
these
the
words
that
Jehovah
cried
by
the
former
prophets,
when
Jerusalem
was
inhabited
and
at peace,
and
her
cities
round
about
her,
when
the
south
and
the
lowland
were
inhabited?
\VS{8}And
the
word
of
Jehovah
came unto
Zechariah,
saying,
\VS{9}Thus speaketh
Jehovah
of
hosts,
saying,
Execute
true
judgment,
and shew loving-kindness
and
mercies
one
to
another,
\VS{10}and
oppress
not
the
widow
and
the
fatherless,
the
stranger
and
the
afflicted;
and
let
none
of
you imagine
evil
against
his
brother
in
your
heart.
\VS{11}But
they
refused
to hearken,
and
turned
a
rebellious
shoulder,
and
made
their
ears
heavy,
that
they should not
hear.
\VS{12}And
they
made
their
heart [as]
an adamant,
that
they
should
not
hear
the
law,
and
the
words
that
Jehovah
of
hosts
sent
by
his
Spirit
by
the
hand
of
the
former
prophets:
therefore
was
there
great
wrath
from
Jehovah
of
hosts.
\VS{13}And
it
came
to
pass,
like
as
he
called,
and
they
would
not
hear,
so
they
called,
and
I
would
not
hear, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts;
\VS{14}and
I
scattered
them

the
word
of
Jehovah
of
hosts
came [unto

saying,
\VS{2}Thus saith
Jehovah
of
hosts:
I
am
jealous
for
Zion
with
great
jealousy,
and
I
am
jealous
for
her
with
great
fury.
\VS{3}Thus saith
Jehovah:
I
am
returned unto
Zion,
and
will
dwell
in
the
midst
of
Jerusalem;
and
Jerusalem
shall
be
called,
The
city
of
truth;
and
the
mountain
of

The
holy
mountain.
\VS{4}Thus saith
Jehovah
of

There
shall
yet
old
men
and
old

sit
in
the
streets
of
Jerusalem,
each
one
with
his
staff
in
his

\VS{5}And
the

should

\VS{9}Thus saith
Jehovah
of
hosts: Let
your
hands
be
strong, ye
that
hear
in
these
days
these
words
by
the
mouth
of
the
prophets,
that
were
in
the
day
that
the
foundation
of
the
house
of
Jehovah
of
hosts
was
laid,
that
the
temple
might
be
built.
\VS{10}For
before
those
days
there
was
no
hire
for
man,
nor
any
hire
for
beast;
and
there
was
no
peace
for
him
that
went
out
or
that
came
in,
because
of
the
distress:
for
I
let
loose
all
men,
every
one
against
his neighbour.
\VS{11}But
now
I
will
not
be unto
the
remnant
of
this
people
as
in
the
former
days, saith
Jehovah
of

\VS{12}for
the
seed
shall
be prosperous,
the
vine
shall
give
its
fruit,
and
the

shall
give
its

and
the
heavens
shall
give
their

and
I
will
cause
the
remnant
of
this
people
to
possess
all
these [things].
\VS{13}And
it
shall
come
to
pass,
like
as ye
were
a
curse
among
the
nations,
O
house
of
Judah
and

of
Israel,
so
will
I
save
you,
and ye
shall
be
a
blessing:
fear ye
not,
let
your
hands
be
strong.
\VS{14}For
thus saith
Jehovah
of
hosts:
Like
as
I
thought
to do
you
evil
when
your
fathers
provoked
me
to
wrath, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts,
and
I
repented
not;
\VS{15}so
again
have
I thought
in
these
days
to
do
good unto
Jerusalem
and
to
the
house
of
Judah:
fear ye
not.
\VS{16}These
are
the
things
that ye
shall
do:
Speak
truth
every
one
with
his neighbour;
execute
truth
and
the
judgment
of
peace
in
your
gates;
\VS{17}and
let
none
of
you imagine
evil
in
your
hearts
against
his neighbour;
and
love
no
false
oath:
for
all
these
are [things]
that
I
hate, saith
Jehovah.
\VS{18}And
the
word
of
Jehovah
of
hosts
came unto
me,
saying,

Jehovah
of

The

fourth [month]
and
the
fast
of
the
fifth,
and
the
fast
of
the
seventh,
and
the
fast
of
the
tenth,
shall
be

the
house
of
Judah
joy
and
gladness,
and cheerful gatherings.
Love ye
then
truth
and
peace.
\VS{20}Thus saith
Jehovah
of
hosts:
Yet
again
shall
there
come
peoples,
and
the
inhabitants
of
many
cities;
\VS{21}and
the
inhabitants
of
one city
shall
go

another,
saying,
Let

go speedily

to
seek
Jehovah

go
also.
\VS{22}And
many

strong
nations
shall
come
to
seek
Jehovah

in

and
to supplicate
Jehovah.

In

take
hold,
out
of
all
languages
of
the
nations,
shall
even
take
hold
of
the

of
him

saying,

slay

sell
them
say,
Blessed

pity
them
not.

I
will
no

they
shall smite

deliver
out

hand.
\VS{7}So
I fed
the
flock
of
slaughter, truly
the
poor
of
the
flock.
And
I
took unto
me
two staves;
the
one
I
called
Beauty,
and
the
other
I
called Bands;
and
I fed
the
flock.
\VS{8}And
I
destroyed
three
shepherds
in
one
month;
and
my
soul
was vexed
with
them,
and
their
soul
also loathed

I
said,
I

not
feed

die;

which perisheth
let
it perish;
and
let
them
which
are
left
eat
every
one

flesh
of
another.
\VS{10}And
I
took
my
staff,
Beauty,

cut

I
might
break

I
said unto

If ye
think
good,
give [me]
my
hire;

if
not, forbear.
And
they
weighed
for
my
hire
thirty silver-pieces.

said unto
me,
Cast
it unto
the
potter:
a goodly
price
that
I
was prized
at
by
them.
And
I
took
the
thirty silver-pieces,
and
cast
them
to
the
potter
in

I
cut
asunder mine
other
staff, Bands,
to
break
the

Take unto thee

up

seek
that which

tear

of Megiddon.
\VS{12}And
the
land
shall
mourn,
every
family
apart:
the
family
of
the
house
of
David
apart,
and
their
wives
apart;
the
family
of
the
house
of
Nathan
apart,
and

wives
apart;
\VS{13}the
family
of
the
house
of
Levi
apart,

apart;
the
family
of Shimei
apart,
and
their
wives
apart;
\VS{14}all
the
families
that
remain,
every
family
apart,
and
their
wives
apart.

\par }\Chap{13}{\PP \VerseOne{1}In
that
day
there
shall
be
a
fountain
opened
to
the
house
of
David
and
to
the
inhabitants
of
Jerusalem
for
sin
and
for
uncleanness.
\VS{2}And
it
shall
come
to
pass
in
that
day, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts, [that]
I
will
cut
off
the
names
of
the
idols
out
of
the
land,
and
they
shall
no
more
be
remembered;
and
also
I
will
cause
the
prophets
and
the
unclean
spirit
to
pass
out
of
the
land.
\VS{3}And
it
shall
come
to
pass,
if
any
shall
yet
prophesy,
that
his
father
and
his
mother
that begat
him
shall
say unto
him, Thou shalt
not
live;
for thou speakest
lies
in
the
name
of
Jehovah;
and
his
father
and
his
mother
that begat
him
shall
thrust
him
through
when
he prophesieth.
\VS{4}And
it
shall
come
to
pass
in
that
day, [that]
the
prophets
shall
be
ashamed
every
one
of
his
vision,
when
he prophesieth;
neither
shall
they
wear
a
hairy
mantle
to
deceive.
\VS{5}And
he
shall
say,
I
am
no
prophet,
I
am
a
tiller
of
the
ground;
for
man
acquired
me [as bondman]
from
my
youth.
\VS{6}And
one
shall
say unto
him,
What
are
those
wounds
in thy
hands?
And
he
will
say,
Those
with
which
I
was
wounded
in
the
house
of
my
friends.
\VS{7}Awake,
O
sword,
against
my
shepherd,
even
against
the
man [that
is]
my fellow, saith
Jehovah
of
hosts:
smite
the
shepherd,
and
the
sheep
shall
be
scattered,
and
I
will
turn
my
hand
upon
the
little ones.
\VS{8}And
it
shall
come
to
pass
in
all
the
land, saith
Jehovah,
two
parts therein
shall
be
cut
off [and]
die;
but
the
third
shall
be
left therein.
\VS{9}And
I
will
bring
the
third
part
into
the
fire,
and
will
refine
them
as
silver
is
refined,
and
will
try
them
as
gold
is
tried.
They
shall
call
on
my
name,
and
I
will
answer
them:
I
will
say,
It
is
my
people;
and
they
shall
say,
Jehovah
is
my

\par }\Chap{14}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Behold,
the
day cometh
for
Jehovah,
and thy
spoil
shall
be
divided
in
the
midst
of thee.
\VS{2}And
I
will
assemble
all
the
nations
against
Jerusalem
to
battle;
and
the
city
shall
be
taken,
and
the
houses rifled,
and
the
women
ravished;
and
half
of
the
city
shall
go
forth
into captivity;
and
the
rest
of
the
people
shall
not
be
cut
off
from
the
city.
\VS{3}And
Jehovah
will
go
forth
and
fight
with
those
nations,
as
when
he
fought
in
the
day
of
battle.
\VS{4}And
his
feet
shall
stand
in
that
day
upon
the
mount
of
Olives,
which
is
before
Jerusalem
toward
the
east,
and
the
mount
of
Olives
shall cleave
in
the
midst thereof
toward
the
east
and
toward
the
west, —
a
very
great
valley;
and
half
of
the
mountain
shall
remove
toward
the
north,
and
half
of
it
toward
the
south.
\VS{5}And ye
shall
flee [by]
the
valley
of
my
mountains;
for
the
valley
of
the
mountains
shall
reach unto
Azal: ye
shall
even
flee,
like
as ye
fled
from
before
the
earthquake
in
the
days
of
Uzziah
king
of
Judah.
And
Jehovah
my
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:5 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
shall
come, [and]
all
the
holy
ones
with thee.
\VS{6}And
it
shall
come
to
pass
in
that
day, [that]
there
shall
not
be
light;
the
shining
shall
be obscured.
\VS{7}And
it
shall
be
one
day
which
is
known
to
Jehovah,
not
day,
and
not
night;
and
it
shall
come
to
pass,
at eventide
it
shall
be
light.
\VS{8}And
it
shall
come
to
pass
in
that
day [that]
living
waters
shall
go
out
from
Jerusalem;
half
of
them
toward
the
eastern
sea,
and
half
of
them
toward
the hinder
sea:
in
summer
and
in
winter
shall
it
be.
\VS{9}And
Jehovah
shall
be
king
over
all
the
earth:
in
that
day
shall
there
be
one
Jehovah,
and
his
name
one.
\VS{10}All
the
land
from
Geba
to
Rimmon
south
of
Jerusalem
shall
be
turned
as
the
Arabah;
and [Jerusalem]
shall
be lifted
up,
and
shall
dwell
in
her own
place,
from Benjamin's
gate unto
the
place
of
the
first
gate, unto
the corner-gate,
and
from
the
tower
of Hananeel unto
the king's
winepresses.
\VS{11}And [men]
shall
dwell
in
it,
and
there
shall
be
no
more utter destruction;
and
Jerusalem
shall
dwell
safely.
\VS{12}And
this
shall
be
the
plague wherewith
Jehovah
will
smite
all
the
peoples
that
have warred
against
Jerusalem:
their
flesh
shall consume
away
while
they
stand
upon
their
feet,
and
their
eyes
shall consume
away
in
their
holes,
and
their
tongue
shall consume
away
in
their
mouth.
\VS{13}And
it
shall
come
to
pass
in
that
day [that]
a
great
panic
from
Jehovah
shall
be
among
them;
and
they
shall
lay
hold
every
one
on
the
hand
of
his neighbour,
and
his
hand
shall
rise
up
against
the
hand
of
his neighbour.
\VS{14}And
Judah
also
shall
fight
at
Jerusalem;
and
the
wealth
of
all
the
nations
round
about
shall
be
gathered
together —
gold,
and
silver,
and
garments,
in
great
abundance.
\VS{15}And
so
shall
be
the
plague
of
the
horse,
of
the
mule,
of
the
camel,
and
of
the ass,
and
of
all
the
beasts
that
shall
be
in
those
camps,
as
this
plague.
\VS{16}And
it
shall
come
to
pass,
that
all
that
are
left
of
all
the
nations
which
came
against
Jerusalem
shall
go
up
from
year
to
year
to
worship
the
King,
Jehovah
of
hosts,
and
to
celebrate
the
feast
of tabernacles.
\VS{17}And
it
shall
be,
that whoso goeth
not
up
of
the
families
of
the
earth unto
Jerusalem
to
worship
the
King,
Jehovah
of
hosts,
upon
them
shall
be
no
rain.
\VS{18}And
if
the
family
of
Egypt
go
not
up,
and
come
not,
neither [shall
it
be]
upon
them; [there]
shall
be
the
plague, wherewith
Jehovah
will
smite
the
nations
that
go
not
up
to
celebrate
the
feast
of tabernacles.
\VS{19}This
shall
be
the punishment
of
Egypt,
and
the punishment
of
all
the
nations
that
go
not
up
to
celebrate
the
feast
of tabernacles.
\VS{20}In
that
day
shall
there
be
upon
the
bells
of
the
horses,
HOLINESS UNTO
JEHOVAH;
and
the
pots
in Jehovah's
house
shall
be
like
the
bowls
before
the
altar.
\VS{21}And
every
pot
in
Jerusalem
and
in
Judah
shall
be
holiness unto
Jehovah
of
hosts;
and
all
they
that
sacrifice
shall
come
and
take
of
them,
and
seethe therein.
And
in
that
day
there
shall
be
no
more
a
Canaanite
in
the
house
of
Jehovah
of
hosts.
