Zechariah 14 — Context

6

And in that day there will be no heat or cold or ice;

7

And it will be unbroken day, such as the Lord has knowledge of, without change of day and night, and even at nightfall it will be light.

8

And on that day living waters will go out from Jerusalem; half of them flowing to the sea on the east and half to the sea on the west: in summer and in winter it will be so.

9

And the Lord will be King over all the earth: in that day there will be one Lord and his name one.

10

And all the land will become like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; and she will be lifted up and be living in her place; from the doorway of Benjamin to the place of the first doorway, to the doorway of the angle, and from the tower of Hananel to the king's wine-crushing places, men will be living in her.

11

And there will be no more curse; but Jerusalem will be living without fear of danger.

12

And this will be the disease which the Lord will send on all the peoples which have been warring against Jerusalem: their flesh will be wasted away while they are on their feet, their eyes will be wasted in their heads and their tongues in their mouths.
