11 People will dwell in it;it will never again be destroyed.Jerusalem will dwell securely.
12 This will be the plague with which the Lord will strike all the peoples whoswarmed against Jerusalem:their flesh will rot, even while standing on their feet;their eyes will rot in their sockets;and their tongues will rot in their mouths.
13 On that day, a great panic brought on by the Lord will fall upon them;they will all grasp at the hand of their neighbors;neighbors will attack each other.
14 Even Judah will fight in Jerusalem.The wealth of all the surrounding nations will be collected:gold, silver, and a great abundance of garments.
15 This plague will also affect the horses, mules, camels, donkeys, and any cattle in those camps during this plague.
16 All those left from all the nations who attacked Jerusalem will go up annually to pay homage to the king, the Lord of heavenly forces, and to celebrate the Festival of Booths.
17 Whoever among the families of the earth doesn’t go up to Jerusalem to pay homage to the king, the Lord of heavenly forces, upon them no rain will fall.
