On that day His feet will (A)stand on the Mount of Olives, which is in front of Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be (B)split [a]in its middle from east to west forming a very large valley. Half of the mountain will move toward the north, and the other half toward the south. And you will flee by the valley of My mountains, for the valley of the mountains will reach to Azel; yes, you will flee just as you fled from the (C)earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. (D)Then the Lord, my God, will come, and all the holy ones with [b]Him!

On that day there will be (E)no light; the [c]luminaries will die out. For it will be (F)a unique day which is (G)known to the Lord, neither day nor night, but it will come about that at the (H)time of evening there will be light.

And on that day (I)living waters will flow out of Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea and the other half toward the western sea; it will be in summer as well as in winter.

God Will Be King over All

And the Lord will be (J)King over all the earth; on that day the Lord will be the only (K)one, and His name the only one.

10 All the land will change into a plain from (L)Geba to (M)Rimmon south of Jerusalem; but [d]Jerusalem will (N)rise and (O)remain on its site from (P)Benjamin’s Gate as far as the place of the First Gate to the (Q)Corner Gate, and from the (R)Tower of Hananel to the king’s wine presses. 11 People will live in it, and there will (S)no longer be a curse, for Jerusalem will (T)live in security.

And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.

And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:

But it shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.

And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.

And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.

10 All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her 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.

11 And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.
