(A)Which is known to the Lord—

But at (B)evening time it shall happen
That it will be light.

That living (C)waters shall flow from Jerusalem,
Half of them toward [a]the eastern sea
And half of them toward [b]the western sea;
In both summer and winter it shall occur.
9 And the Lord shall be (D)King over all the earth.
In that day it shall be—
(E)“The Lord is one,”
And His name one.
