  1. Zechariah 2:8 Lit. pupil

For (A)I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem;
The city shall be taken,
The houses [a]rifled,
And the women ravished.
Half of the city shall go into captivity,
But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

Then the Lord will go forth
And fight against those nations,
As He fights in the day of battle.
And in that day His feet will stand (B)on the Mount of Olives,
Which faces Jerusalem on the east.
And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two,
From east to west,
(C)Making a very large valley;
Half of the mountain shall move toward the north
And half of it toward the south.

  1. Zechariah 14:2 Or plundered

12 And this shall be the plague with which the Lord will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem:

Their flesh shall [a]dissolve while they stand on their feet,
Their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets,
And their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths.

13 It shall come to pass in that day
That (A)a great panic from the Lord will be among them.
Everyone will seize the hand of his neighbor,
And raise (B)his hand against his neighbor’s hand;
14 Judah also will fight at Jerusalem.
(C)And the wealth of all the surrounding nations
Shall be gathered together:
Gold, silver, and apparel in great abundance.

15 (D)Such also shall be the plague
On the horse and the mule,
On the camel and the donkey,
And on all the cattle that will be in those camps.
So shall this plague be.
