The next file is: ZECHARIAH    
1:1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the
 word of the LORD to Zechariah, the son of Barachiah, the son of
 Iddo the prophet, saying,
1:2 The LORD hath been greatly displeased with your fathers.
1:3 Therefore say thou to them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts;
 Turn ye to me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will turn to you,
 saith the LORD of hosts.
1:4 Be ye not as your fathers, to whom the former prophets have
 cried, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye now from
 your evil ways, and [from] your evil doings: but they did not
 hear, nor hearken to me, saith the LORD.
1:5 Your fathers, where [are] they? and the prophets, do they
 live for ever?
1:6 But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants
 the prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers? and they
 returned and said, As the LORD of hosts thought to do to us,
 according to our ways, and according to our doings, so hath he
 dealt with us.
1:7 Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which
 [is] the month Sebat, in the second year of Darius, came the
 word of the LORD to Zechariah, the son of Barachiah, the son of
 Iddo the prophet, saying,
1:8 I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse,
 and he stood among the myrtle-trees that [were] in the bottom;
 and behind him [were there] red horses, speckled, and white.
1:9 Then said I, O my LORD, what [are these]? And the angel that
 talked with me said to me, I will show thee what these [are].
1:10 And the man that stood among the myrtle-trees answered and
 said, These [are they] whom the LORD hath sent to walk to and
 fro through the earth.
1:11 And they answered the angel of the LORD that stood among
 the myrtle-trees, and said, We have walked to and fro through
 the earth, and behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at
 rest.
1:12 Then the angel of the LORD answered and said, O LORD of
 hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on
 the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation
 these seventy years.
1:13 And the LORD answered the angel that talked with me [with]
 good words [and] comforting words.
1:14 So the angel that communed with me said to me, Cry thou,
 saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I am jealous for
 Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
1:15 And I am very greatly displeased with the heathen [that
 are] at ease: for I was but a little displeased, and they
 helped forward the affliction.
1:16 Therefore thus saith the LORD; I have returned to Jerusalem
 with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of
 hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.
1:17 Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities
 through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD
 shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
1:18 Then I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold four horns.
1:19 And I said to the angel that talked with me, What [are]
 these? And he answered me, These [are] the horns which have
 scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
1:20 And the LORD showed me four carpenters.
1:21 Then said I, What come these to do? And he spoke, saying,
 These [are] the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no
 man lifted up his head: but these are come to terrify them, to
 cast down the horns of the Gentiles, which lifted [their] horn
 over the land of Judah to scatter it.
2:1 I lifted up my eyes again, and looked, and behold a man with
 a measuring line in his hand.
2:2 Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said to me, To
 measure Jerusalem, to see what [is] its breadth, and what [is]
 its length.
2:3 And behold, the angel that talked with me went forth, and
 another angel went out to meet him,
2:4 And said to him, Run, speak to this young man, saying,
 Jerusalem shall be inhabited [as] towns without walls for the
 multitude of men and cattle in it.
2:5 For I, saith the LORD, will be to her a wall of fire on
 every side, and will be the glory in the midst of her.
2:6 Ho, ho, [come forth], and flee from the land of the north,
 saith the LORD: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds
 of the heaven, saith the LORD.
2:7 Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest [with] the daughter
 of Babylon.
2:8 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he
 sent me to the nations which wasted you: for he that toucheth
 you, toucheth the apple of his eye.
2:9 For behold, I will shake my hand upon them, and they shall
 be a spoil to their servants: and ye shall know that the LORD
 of hosts hath sent me.
2:10 Sing, and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for lo, I come, and
 I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD.
2:11 And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day,
 and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee,
 and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me to
 thee.
2:12 And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy
 land, and shall choose Jerusalem again.
2:13 Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for he is raised
 up out of his holy habitation.
3:1 And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the
 angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to
 resist him.
3:2 And the LORD said to Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan;
 even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: [is] not
 this a brand plucked out of the fire?
3:3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood
 before the angel.
3:4 And he answered and spoke to those that stood before him,
 saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And to him he
 said, Behold, I have caused thy iniquity to pass from thee, and
 I will clothe thee with change of raiment.
3:5 And I said, Let them set a fair miter upon his head. So they
 set a fair miter upon his head, and clothed him with garments.
 And the angel of the LORD stood by.
3:6 And the angel of the LORD protested to Joshua, saying,
3:7 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways,
 and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my
 house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee
 places to walk among these that stand by.
3:8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou and thy fellows
 that sit before thee: for they [are] men wondered at: for
 behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
3:9 For behold, the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon
 one stone [shall be] seven eyes; behold, I will engrave the
 graving of it saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the
 iniquity of that land in one day.
3:10 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every
 man his neighbor under the vine and under the fig-tree.
4:1 And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me,
 as a man that is wakened out of his sleep,
4:2 And said to me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked,
 and behold a candlestick: all [of] gold, with a bowl upon the
 top of it, and its seven lamps, and seven pipes to the seven
 lamps, which [were] upon the top of it.
4:3 And two olive-trees by it, one upon the right [side] of the
 bowl, and the other upon the left [side].
4:4 So I answered and spoke to the angel that talked with me,
 saying, What [are] these, my lord?
4:5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said to me,
 Knowest thou not what these are? and I said, No, my lord.
4:6 Then he answered and spoke to me, saying, This [is] the word
 of the LORD to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power,
 but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.
4:7 Who [art] thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel [thou
 shalt become] a plain: and he shall bring forth [its]
 head-stone [with] shoutings, [crying], Grace, grace, to it.
4:8 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
4:9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this
 house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that
 the LORD of hosts hath sent me to you.
4:10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they
 shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of
 Zerubbabel [with] those seven; they [are] the eyes of the LORD,
 which run to and fro through the whole earth.
4:11 Then I answered, and said to him, What [are] these two
 olive-trees upon the right [side] of the candlestick and upon
 its left [side]?
4:12 And I answered again, and said to him, What [are these] two
 olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the
 golden [oil] out of themselves?
4:13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these
 [are]? And I said, No, my lord.
4:14 Then said he, These [are] the two anointed ones, that stand
 by the LORD of the whole earth.
5:1 Then I turned, and lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold
 a flying roll.
5:2 And he said to me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a
 flying roll; its length [is] twenty cubits, and its breadth ten
 cubits.
5:3 Then said he to me, This [is] the curse that goeth forth
 over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth
 shall be cut off [as] on this side according to it; and every
 one that sweareth shall be cut off [as] on that side according
 to it.
5:4 I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall
 enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him
 that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the
 midst of his house, and shall consume it with its timber and
 its stones.
5:5 Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said to
 me, Lift up now thy eyes, and see what [is] this that goeth
 forth.
5:6 And I said, What [is] it? And he said, This [is] an ephah
 that goeth forth. He said moreover, This [is] their resemblance
 through all the earth.
5:7 And behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead: and this
 [is] a woman that sitteth in the midst of the ephah.
5:8 And he said, This [is] wickedness. And he cast it into the
 midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon its
 mouth.
5:9 Then I lifted up my eyes, and looked and behold, there came
 out two women, and the wind [was] in their wings; for they had
 wings like the wings of a stork: and they lifted up the ephah
 between the earth and the heaven.
5:10 Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do
 these bear the ephah?
5:11 And he said to me, To build for it a house in the land of
 Shinar: and it shall be established, and set there upon her own
 base.
6:1 And I turned, and lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold,
 there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and
 the mountains [were] mountains of brass.
6:2 In the first chariot [were] red horses; and in the second
 chariot black horses;
6:3 And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth
 chariot grizzled and bay horses.
6:4 Then I answered and said to the angel that talked with me,
 What [are] these, my lord?
6:5 And the angel answered and said to me, These [are] the four
 spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the
 Lord of all the earth.
6:6 The black horses which [are] therein go forth into the north
 country; and the white go forth after them; and the grizzled go
 forth towards the south country.
6:7 And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might
 walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Go hence, walk
 to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through
 the earth.
6:8 Then he cried upon me, and spoke to me, saying, Behold,
 these that go towards the north country have quieted my spirit
 in the north country.
6:9 And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
6:10 Take of [them of] the captivity, [even] of Heldai, of
 Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, who are come from Babylon, and come
 thou the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of
 Zephaniah;
6:11 Then take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set [them]
 upon the head of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest.
6:12 And speak to him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts,
 saying, Behold the man whose name [is] The BRANCH; and he shall
 grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the
 LORD;
6:13 Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall
 bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne: and he
 shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace
 shall be between them both.
6:14 And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to
 Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the
 temple of the LORD.
6:15 And they [that are] far off shall come and build in the
 temple of the LORD, and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts
 hath sent me to you. And [this] shall come to pass, if ye will
 diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.
7:1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius,
 [that] the word of the LORD came to Zechariah in the fourth
 [day] of the ninth month, [even] in Chisleu;
7:2 When they had sent to the house of God Sherezer and
 Regem-melech, and their men, to pray before the LORD,
7:3 [And] to speak to the priests who [were] in the house of the
 LORD of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, Should I weep in
 the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so
 many years?
7:4 Then came the word of the LORD of hosts to me, saying,
7:5 Speak to all the people of the land, and to the priests,
 saying, When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh
 [month], even those seventy years, did ye at all fast to me,
 [even] to me?
7:6 And when ye ate, and when ye drank, did ye not eat [for
 yourselves], and drink [for yourselves]?
7:7 [Should ye] not [hear] the words which the LORD hath cried
 by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and in
 prosperity, and her cities around her, when [men] inhabited the
 south and the plain?
7:8 And the word of the LORD came to Zechariah, saying,
7:9 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Execute true
 judgment, and show mercy and compassions every man to his
 brother:
7:10 And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the
 stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil
 against his brother in your heart.
7:11 But they refused to hearken, and withdrew the shoulder, and
 stopped their ears, that they should not hear.
7:12 Yes, they made their hearts [as] an adamant stone, lest
 they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD of hosts
 hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came
 a great wrath from the LORD of hosts.
7:13 Therefore it is come to pass, [that] as he cried, and they
 would not hear; so they cried, and I would not hear, saith the
 LORD of hosts:
7:14 But I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations
 whom they knew not. Thus the land was desolate after them, that
 no man passed through nor returned: for they laid the pleasant
 land desolate.
8:1 Again the word of the LORD of hosts came [to me], saying,
8:2 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I was jealous for Zion with
 great jealousy, and I was jealous for her with great fury.
8:3 Thus saith the LORD; I have returned to Zion, and will dwell
 in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city
 of truth; and the mountain of the LORD of hosts the holy
 mountain.
8:4 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; There shall yet old men and
 old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with
 his staff in his hand for very age.
8:5 And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls
 playing in its streets.
8:6 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If it is marvelous in the eyes
 of the remnant of this people in these days, should it also be
 marvelous in my eyes? saith the LORD of hosts.
8:7 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will save my people
 from the east country, and from the west country;
8:8 And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of
 Jerusalem: and they shall be my people, and I will be their
 God, in truth and in righteousness.
8:9 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Let your hands be strong, ye
 that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the
 prophets, who [were] in the day [when] the foundation of the
 house of the LORD of hosts was laid, that the temple might be
 built.
8:10 For before these days there was no hire for man, nor any
 hire for beast; neither [was there any] peace to him that went
 out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men
 every one against his neighbor.
8:11 But now I [will] not [be] to the residue of this people as
 in the former days, saith the LORD of hosts.
8:12 For the seed [shall be] prosperous; the vine shall give her
 fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens
 shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this
 people to possess all these [things].
8:13 And it shall come to pass, [that] as ye were a curse among
 the heathen, O house of Judah, and house of Israel; so will I
 save you, and ye shall be a blessing: fear not, let your hands
 be strong.
8:14 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; As I thought to punish
 you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the LORD of
 hosts, and I repented not;
8:15 So again have I thought in these days to do good to
 Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear ye not.
8:16 These [are] the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man
 the truth to his neighbor; execute the judgment of truth and
 peace in your gates:
8:17 And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his
 neighbor; and love no false oath: for all these [are things]
 that I hate, saith the LORD.
8:18 And the word of the LORD of hosts came to me, saying,
8:19 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The fast of the fourth
 [month], and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the
 seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of
 Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the
 truth and peace.
8:20 Thus saith the LORD of hosts: [It shall] yet [come to
 pass], that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of
 many cities:
8:21 And the inhabitants of one [city] shall go to another,
 saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the LORD, and to seek
 the LORD of hosts: I will go also.
8:22 And many people and strong nations shall come to seek the
 LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the LORD.
8:23 Thus saith the LORD of hosts: In those days [it shall come
 to pass], that ten men out of all languages of the nations,
 shall take hold, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that
 is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard [that]
 God [is] with you.
9:1 The burden of the word of the LORD in the land of Hadrach,
 and Damascus [shall be] the rest of it: when the eyes of man,
 as of all the tribes of Israel, [shall be] towards the LORD.
9:2 And Hamath also shall border by it; Tyre and Zidon, though
 it be very wise.
9:3 And Tyre built herself a strong hold, and amassed silver as
 the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.
9:4 Behold, the LORD will cast her out, and he will smite her
 power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.
9:5 Ashkelon shall see [it], and fear; Gaza also [shall see
 it], and be very sorrowful, and Ekron; for her expectation
 shall be ashamed; and the king shall perish from Gaza, and
 Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.
9:6 And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the
 pride of the Philistines.
9:7 And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his
 abominations from between his teeth: but he that remaineth,
 even he, [shall be] for our God, and he shall be as a governor
 in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
9:8 And I will encamp about my house because of the army,
 because of him that passeth by, and because of him that
 returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more:
 for now have I seen with my eyes.
9:9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of
 Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh to thee: he [is] just, and
 having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a
 colt the foal of an ass.
9:10 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse
 from Jerusalem, and the battle-bow shall be cut off: and he
 shall speak peace to the heathen: and his dominion [shall be]
 from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.
9:11 As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent
 forth thy prisoners out of the pit in which [is] no water.
9:12 Turn ye to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even
 to-day do I declare [that] I will render double to thee;
9:13 When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with
 Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O
 Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.
9:14 And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall
 go forth as the lightning: and the Lord GOD will blow the
 trumpet, and will go with whirlwinds of the south.
9:15 The LORD of hosts will defend them; and they shall devour,
 and subdue with sling-stones; and they shall drink, [and] make
 a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls,
 [and] as the corners of the altar.
9:16 And the LORD their God will save them in that day as the
 flock of his people: for [they shall be as] the stones of a
 crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land.
9:17 For how great [is] his goodness, and how great [is] his
 beauty! corn shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine
 the maids.
10:1 Ask ye of the LORD rain in the time of the latter rain;
 [so] the LORD will make bright clouds, and give them showers of
 rain, to every one grass in the field.
10:2 For the idols have spoken vanity, and the diviners have
 seen a lie, and have told false dreams; they comfort in vain:
 therefore they went their way as a flock, they were troubled
 because [there was] no shepherd.
10:3 My anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I punished
 the goats: for the LORD of hosts hath visited his flock the
 house of Judah, and hath made them as his goodly horse in the
 battle.
10:4 Out of him came forth the corner, out of him the nail, out
 of him the battle-bow, out of him every oppressor together.
10:5 And they shall be as mighty [men], who tread down [their
 enemies] in the mire of the streets in the battle: and they
 shall fight, because the LORD [is] with them, and the riders on
 horses shall be confounded.
10:6 And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save
 the house of Joseph, and I will bring them again to place them;
 for I have mercy upon them: and they shall be as though I had
 not cast them off: for I [am] the LORD their God, and will hear
 them.
10:7 And [they of] Ephraim shall be like a mighty [man], and
 their heart shall rejoice as through wine: yes, their children
 shall see [it], and be glad; their heart shall rejoice in the
 LORD.
10:8 I will hiss for them, and gather them: for I have redeemed
 them: and they shall increase as they have increased.
10:9 And I will sow them among the people: and they shall
 remember me in remote countries; and they shall live with their
 children, and turn again.
10:10 I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and
 gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land
 of Gilead and Lebanon; and [place] shall not be found for them.
10:11 And he shall pass through the sea with affliction, and
 shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the deeps of the
 river shall dry up: and the pride of Assyria shall be brought
 down, and the scepter of Egypt shall depart.
10:12 And I will strengthen them in the LORD; and they shall
 walk up and down in his name, saith the LORD.
11:1 Open thy doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour thy
 cedars.
11:2 Howl, fir-tree, for the cedar is fallen; because the mighty
 are laid waste: howl, O ye oaks of Bashan; for the forest of
 the vintage is come down.
11:3 [There is] a voice of the howling of the shepherds; for
 their glory is destroyed: a voice of the roaring of young
 lions; for the pride of Jordan is laid waste.
11:4 Thus saith the LORD my God; Feed the flock of the
 slaughter;
11:5 Whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty:
 and they that sell them say, Blessed [be] the LORD; for I am
 rich: and their own shepherds pity them not.
11:6 For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, saith
 the LORD: but lo, I will deliver the men every one into his
 neighbor's hand, and into the hand of his king: and they shall
 smite the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver
 [them].
11:7 And I will feed the flock of slaughter, [even] you, O poor
 of the flock. And I took to me two staffs; the one I called
 Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.
11:8 Three shepherds also I cut off in one month; and my soul
 lothed them, and their soul also abhorred me.
11:9 Then said I, I will not feed you: that which dieth, let it
 die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and
 let the rest eat, every one the flesh of another.
11:10 And I took my staff, [even] Beauty, and cut it asunder,
 that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the
 people.
11:11 And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the
 flock that waited upon me knew that it [was] the word of the
 LORD.
11:12 And I said to them, If ye think good, give [me] my price;
 and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty
 [pieces] of silver.
11:13 And the LORD said to me, Cast it to the potter: a goodly
 price that I was prized at by them. And I took the thirty
 [pieces] of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of
 the LORD.
11:14 Then I cut asunder my other staff, [even] Bands, that I
 might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
11:15 And the LORD said to me, Take to thee yet the instruments
 of a foolish shepherd.
11:16 For lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, [who]
 shall not visit those that are cut off, neither shall seek the
 young one, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which
 standeth still: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear
 their claws in pieces.
11:17 Woe to the idle shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword
 [shall be] upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall
 be wholly dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly
 darkened.
12:1 The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the
 LORD, who stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the
 foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within
 him.
12:2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling to all the
 people around, when they shall be in the siege both against
 Judah [and] against Jerusalem.
12:3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone
 for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut
 in pieces, though all the people of the earth be assembled
 against it.
12:4 In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with
 astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open my
 eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the
 people with blindness.
12:5 And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The
 inhabitants of Jerusalem [shall be] my strength in the LORD of
 hosts their God.
12:6 In that day will I make the governors of Judah like a
 hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a
 sheaf; and they shall devour all the people around, on the
 right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited
 again in her own place, [even] in Jerusalem.
12:7 The LORD also will save the tents of Judah first, that the
 glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of
 Jerusalem may not magnify [themselves] against Judah.
12:8 In that day will the LORD defend the inhabitants of
 Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall
 be as David; and the house of David [shall be] as God, as the
 angel of the LORD before them.
12:9 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] I will seek
 to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
12:10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the
 inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of
 supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have
 pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for
 [his] only [son], and shall be in bitterness for him, as one
 that is in bitterness for [his] first-born.
12:11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem,
 as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
12:12 And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family
 of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family
 of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;
12:13 The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives
 apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;
12:14 All the families that remain, every family apart, and
 their wives apart.
13:1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house
 of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for
 uncleanness.
13:2 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of
 hosts, [that] I will cut off the names of the idols out of the
 land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will
 cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the
 land.
13:3 And it shall come to pass, [that] when any shall yet
 prophesy, then his father and his mother that begat him shall
 say to him, Thou shalt not live; for thou speakest lies in the
 name of the LORD: and his father and his mother that begat him
 shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.
13:4 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the prophets
 shall be ashamed every one of his vision, when he hath
 prophesied; neither shall they wear a rough garment to deceive:
13:5 But he shall say, I [am] no prophet, I [am] a husbandman;
 for man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.
13:6 And [one] shall say to him, What [are] these wounds in thy
 hands? Then he shall answer, [Those] with which I was wounded
 [in] the house of my friends.
13:7 Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man
 [that is] my fellow, saith the LORD of hosts: smite the
 shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn my
 hand upon the little ones.
13:8 And it shall come to pass, [that] in all the land, saith
 the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off [and] die; but the
 third shall be left therein.
13:9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will
 refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is
 tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will
 say, It [is] my people; and they shall say, The LORD [is] my
 God.
14:1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be
 divided in the midst of thee.
14:2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle;
 and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the
 women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into
 captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off
 from the city.
14:3 Then will the LORD go forth, and fight against those
 nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
14:4 And his feet will 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 of it towards the east and
 towards the west, [and there shall be] a very great valley; and
 half of the mountain shall remove towards the north, and half
 of it towards the south.
14:5 And ye shall flee [to] the valley of the mountains; for the
 valley of the mountains shall reach to Azal: yes, ye shall flee
 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.
14:6 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the light
 shall not be clear, [nor] dark:
14:7 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 it shall be light.
14:8 And it shall be in that day, [that] living waters shall go
 out from Jerusalem; half of them towards the former sea, and
 half of them towards the hinder sea: in summer and in winter
 shall it be.
14:9 And the LORD will be king over all the earth: in that day
 will there be one LORD, and his name one.
14:10 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 to the place of
 the first gate, to the corner gate, and [from] the tower of
 Hananeel to the king's wine-presses.
14:11 And [men] shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more
 utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.
14:12 And this shall be the plague with which the LORD will
 smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their
 flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and
 their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue
 shall consume away in their mouth.
14:13 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] a great
 tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay
 hold every one on the hand of his neighbor, and his hand shall
 rise up against the hand of his neighbor.
14:14 And Judah also shall fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of
 all the heathen around shall be collected, gold, and silver,
 and apparel, in great abundance.
14:15 And so shall be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of
 the camel, and of the ass, and of all the beasts that shall be
 in these tents, as this plague.
14:16 And it shall come to pass, [that] every one that is left
 of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go
 up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts,
 and to keep the feast of tabernacles.
14:17 And it shall be, [that] whoever will not come up of [all]
 the families of the earth to Jerusalem to worship the King, the
 LORD of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.
14:18 And if the family of Egypt shall not go up, and shall not
 come, that [have] no [rain]; there shall be the plague, with
 which the LORD will smite the heathen that come not up to keep
 the feast of tabernacles.
14:19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment
 of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of
 tabernacles.
14:20 In that day there shall be upon the bells of the horses,
 HOLINESS TO THE LORD; and the pots in the LORD'S house shall be
 like the bowls before the altar.
14:21 Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness
 to the LORD of hosts: and all they that sacrifice shall come
 and take of them, and seethe in them: and in that day there
 shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the LORD of
 hosts.
