And in that day His feet will stand (A)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,
(B)Making a very large valley;
Half of the mountain shall move toward the north
And half of it toward the south.

Then you shall flee through My mountain valley,
For the mountain valley shall reach to Azal.
Yes, you shall flee
As you fled from the (C)earthquake
In the days of Uzziah king of Judah.

(D)Thus the Lord my God will come,
And (E)all the saints with [a]You.

It shall come to pass in that day
That there will be no light;
The [b]lights will diminish.
It shall be one day
(F)Which is known to the Lord
Neither day nor night.
But at (G)evening time it shall happen
That it will be light.

And in that day it shall be
That living (H)waters shall flow from Jerusalem,
Half of them toward [c]the eastern sea
And half of them toward [d]the western sea;
In both summer and winter it shall occur.
And the Lord shall be (I)King over all the earth.
In that day it shall be—
(J)“The Lord is one,”
And His name one.

10 All the land shall be turned into a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. [e]Jerusalem shall be raised up and (K)inhabited in her place from Benjamin’s Gate to the place of the First Gate and the Corner Gate, (L)and from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s winepresses.

11 The people shall dwell in it;
And (M)no longer shall there be utter destruction,
(N)But Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.

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)
