Zechariah 14

1 A day is coming for the Lord, when your plundered possessions will be divided while you watch.

ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται τοῦ κυρίου καὶ διαμερισθήσεται τὰ σκῦλά σου ἐν σοί

2 And all the nations will gather to Jerusalem, to fight against it. The city will be taken and the houses plundered and the women raped. Half of the city will go into captivity, and the rest of the people left in the ruins.

καὶ ἐπισυνάξω πάντα τὰ ἔθνη ἐπὶ Ιερουσαλημ εἰς πόλεμον καὶ ἁλώσεται ἡ πόλις καὶ διαρπαγήσονται αἱ οἰκίαι καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες μολυνθήσονται καὶ ἐξελεύσεται τὸ ἥμισυ τῆς πόλεως ἐν αἰχμαλωσίᾳ οἱ δὲ κατάλοιποι τοῦ λαοῦ μου οὐ μὴ ἐξολεθρευθῶσιν ἐκ τῆς πόλεως

3 Then the Lord will go forth and fight against these nations, as once he fought in the day of battle.

καὶ ἐξελεύσεται κύριος καὶ παρατάξεται ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ἐκείνοις καθὼς ἡμέρα παρατάξεως αὐτοῦ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ πολέμου

4 On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, (which is opposite Jerusalem, on the east). The Mount of Olives will be split into halves, from east to west, by an exceedingly great valley; and half of the mountain will slide northwards and half southwards.

καὶ στήσονται οἱ πόδες αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐπὶ τὸ ὄρος τῶν ἐλαιῶν τὸ κατέναντι Ιερουσαλημ ἐξ ἀνατολῶν καὶ σχισθήσεται τὸ ὄρος τῶν ἐλαιῶν τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτοῦ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτοῦ πρὸς θάλασσαν χάος μέγα σφόδρα καὶ κλινεῖ τὸ ἥμισυ τοῦ ὄρους πρὸς βορρᾶν καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτοῦ πρὸς νότον

5 You will escape through my valley – the valley between the hills will extend as far as Azel, and you will flee as you fled from before the earthquake, in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. But the Lord your God will come, and all the holy ones with him.

καὶ ἐμφραχθήσεται φάραγξ ὀρέων μου καὶ ἐγκολληθήσεται φάραγξ ὀρέων ἕως Ιασολ καὶ ἐμφραχθήσεται καθὼς ἐνεφράγη ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις τοῦ σεισμοῦ ἐν ἡμέραις Οζιου βασιλέως Ιουδα καὶ ἥξει κύριος ὁ θεός μου καὶ πάντες οἱ ἅγιοι μετ’ αὐτοῦ

6 And in that day, there will be no heat nor cold nor frost,

ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ οὐκ ἔσται φῶς καὶ ψῦχος καὶ πάγος

7 but it will be constant day – it is known to the Lord – with neither day nor night. Even at evening time there will be light.

ἔσται μίαν ἡμέραν καὶ ἡ ἡμέρα ἐκείνη γνωστὴ τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ οὐχ ἡμέρα καὶ οὐ νύξ καὶ πρὸς ἑσπέραν ἔσται φῶς

8 And on that day living waters will flow from Jerusalem, half of them to the eastern sea and half of them to the western sea; in both summer and winter.

καὶ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐξελεύσεται ὕδωρ ζῶν ἐξ Ιερουσαλημ τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν τὴν πρώτην καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν τὴν ἐσχάτην καὶ ἐν θέρει καὶ ἐν ἔαρι ἔσται οὕτως

9 The Lord will be king over all the earth. On that day the Lord will be one, and his name one.

καὶ ἔσται κύριος εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἔσται κύριος εἷς καὶ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἕν

10 The land will be changed to plain, from Geba to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem, but Jerusalem will be high and inhabited as it stands, from the Benjamin Gate up to the place of the first gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate, and as far as the king’s winepresses.

κυκλῶν πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν καὶ τὴν ἔρημον ἀπὸ Γαβε ἕως Ρεμμων κατὰ νότον Ιερουσαλημ Ραμα δὲ ἐπὶ τόπου μενεῖ ἀπὸ τῆς πύλης Βενιαμιν ἕως τοῦ τόπου τῆς πύλης τῆς πρώτης ἕως τῆς πύλης τῶν γωνιῶν καὶ ἕως τοῦ πύργου Ανανεηλ ἕως τῶν ὑποληνίων τοῦ βασιλέως

11 Jerusalem will be inhabited, for never again will it be doomed to destruction, and its people will abide in security.

κατοικήσουσιν ἐν αὐτῇ καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ἀνάθεμα ἔτι καὶ κατοικήσει Ιερουσαλημ πεποιθότως

12 This is the plague with which the Lord will strike all the peoples who array themselves against Jerusalem: he will make their flesh rot while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouth.

καὶ αὕτη ἔσται ἡ πτῶσις ἣν κόψει κύριος πάντας τοὺς λαούς ὅσοι ἐπεστράτευσαν ἐπὶ Ιερουσαλημ τακήσονται αἱ σάρκες αὐτῶν ἑστηκότων αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν ῥυήσονται ἐκ τῶν ὀπῶν αὐτῶν καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτῶν τακήσεται ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν

13 On that day a great panic sent by the Lord will fall on them. Everyone will seize their neighbours and attack them.

καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἔκστασις κυρίου ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς μεγάλη καὶ ἐπιλήμψονται ἕκαστος τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ πλησίον αὐτοῦ καὶ συμπλακήσεται ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ πρὸς χεῖρα τοῦ πλησίον αὐτοῦ

14 Even Judah will fight at Jerusalem, and the wealth of the surrounding nations will be gathered up – gold and silver and piles of clothing.

καὶ ὁ Ιουδας παρατάξεται ἐν Ιερουσαλημ καὶ συνάξει τὴν ἰσχὺν πάντων τῶν λαῶν κυκλόθεν χρυσίον καὶ ἀργύριον καὶ ἱματισμὸν εἰς πλῆθος σφόδρα

15 Plague will fall upon the horses, mules, camels, and asses, and on all the animals in all those camps.

καὶ αὕτη ἔσται ἡ πτῶσις τῶν ἵππων καὶ τῶν ἡμιόνων καὶ τῶν καμήλων καὶ τῶν ὄνων καὶ πάντων τῶν κτηνῶν τῶν ὄντων ἐν ταῖς παρεμβολαῖς ἐκείναις κατὰ τὴν πτῶσιν ταύτην

16 All who are left of all the nations which fought against Jerusalem will come up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the pilgrim-feast of tabernacles.

καὶ ἔσται ὅσοι ἐὰν καταλειφθῶσιν ἐκ πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν τῶν ἐλθόντων ἐπὶ Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ἀναβήσονται κατ’ ἐνιαυτὸν τοῦ προσκυνῆσαι τῷ βασιλεῖ κυρίῳ παντοκράτορι καὶ τοῦ ἑορτάζειν τὴν ἑορτὴν τῆς σκηνοπηγίας

17 Whoever of all the peoples of the earth will not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, on them there will be no rain.

καὶ ἔσται ὅσοι ἐὰν μὴ ἀναβῶσιν ἐκ πασῶν τῶν φυλῶν τῆς γῆς εἰς Ιερουσαλημ τοῦ προσκυνῆσαι τῷ βασιλεῖ κυρίῳ παντοκράτορι καὶ οὗτοι ἐκείνοις προστεθήσονται

18 If the family of Egypt does not go up nor enter in, on them also will come the plague with which the Lord will strike the nations.

ἐὰν δὲ φυλὴ Αἰγύπτου μὴ ἀναβῇ μηδὲ ἔλθῃ ἐκεῖ καὶ ἐπὶ τούτοις ἔσται ἡ πτῶσις ἣν πατάξει κύριος πάντα τὰ ἔθνη ὅσα ἐὰν μὴ ἀναβῇ τοῦ ἑορτάσαι τὴν ἑορτὴν τῆς σκηνοπηγίας

19 This will be the punishment for the sin of Egypt and the punishment for the sin of all nations which do not come up to keep the feast of the tabernacles.

αὕτη ἔσται ἡ ἁμαρτία Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἡ ἁμαρτία πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν ὅσα ἂν μὴ ἀναβῇ τοῦ ἑορτάσαι τὴν ἑορτὴν τῆς σκηνοπηγίας

20 On that day there will be inscribed upon the bells of the horses, “Holy to the Lord” and the pots in the house of the Lord will be as holy as the sacrificial bowls before the altars.

ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἔσται τὸ ἐπὶ τὸν χαλινὸν τοῦ ἵππου ἅγιον τῷ κυρίῳ παντοκράτορι καὶ ἔσονται οἱ λέβητες οἱ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ κυρίου ὡς φιάλαι πρὸ προσώπου τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου

21 Every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the Lord of hosts and all who sacrifice will come and take of them and cook the sacrifices in them. There will be no more traffickers in the house of the Lord of hosts in that day.

καὶ ἔσται πᾶς λέβης ἐν Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ἐν τῷ Ιουδα ἅγιον τῷ κυρίῳ παντοκράτορι καὶ ἥξουσιν πάντες οἱ θυσιάζοντες καὶ λήμψονται ἐξ αὐτῶν καὶ ἑψήσουσιν ἐν αὐτοῖς καὶ οὐκ ἔσται Χαναναῖος οὐκέτι ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ κυρίου παντοκράτορος ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ
