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.

On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives,(A) east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split(B) in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south. You will flee by my mountain valley, for it will extend to Azel. You will flee as you fled from the earthquake[a](C) in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the Lord my God will come,(D) and all the holy ones with him.(E)

On that day there will be neither sunlight(F) nor cold, frosty darkness. It will be a unique(G) day—a day known only to the Lord—with no distinction between day and night.(H) When evening comes, there will be light.(I)

On that day living water(J) will flow(K) out from Jerusalem, half of it east(L) to the Dead Sea and half of it west to the Mediterranean Sea, in summer and in winter.(M)

The Lord will be king(N) over the whole earth.(O) On that day there will be one Lord, and his name the only name.(P)

10 The whole land, from Geba(Q) to Rimmon,(R) south of Jerusalem, will become like the Arabah. But Jerusalem will be raised up(S) high from the Benjamin Gate(T) to the site of the First Gate, to the Corner Gate,(U) and from the Tower of Hananel(V) to the royal winepresses, and will remain in its place.(W) 11 It will be inhabited;(X) never again will it be destroyed. Jerusalem will be secure.(Y)
