On that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem,(A) half of it toward the eastern sea[a] and the other half toward the western sea,[b] in summer and winter alike. On that day the Lord will become King over the whole earth(B)—the Lord alone, and his name alone.(C) 10 All the land from Geba(D) to Rimmon(E) south of Jerusalem will be changed into a plain. But Jerusalem will be raised up and will remain[c] on its site from the Benjamin Gate(F) to the place of the First Gate,[d] to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the royal winepresses.(G) 11 People will live there, and never again will there be a curse of complete destruction. So Jerusalem will dwell in security.

On that day life-giving waters will flow out from Jerusalem, half toward the Dead Sea and half toward the Mediterranean,[a] flowing continuously in both summer and winter.

And the Lord will be king over all the earth. On that day there will be one Lord—his name alone will be worshiped.

10 All the land from Geba, north of Judah, to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem, will become one vast plain. But Jerusalem will be raised up in its original place and will be inhabited all the way from the Benjamin Gate over to the site of the old gate, then to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s winepresses. 11 And Jerusalem will be filled, safe at last, never again to be cursed and destroyed.
