18 If the Egyptian people do not go up and take part, they will have no rain. The Lord will bring on them the plague he inflicts on the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.
19 This will be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.
20 On that day holy to the Lord will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, and the cooking pots in the Lord’s house will be like the sacred bowls in front of the altar.
21 Every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be holy to the Lord Almighty, and all who come to sacrifice will take some of the pots and cook in them. And on that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the Lord Almighty.Footnotes for the Book of Zechariaha In Hebrew texts 2:1-13 is numbered 2:5-17.b 8,9 Or says after … eye: 9‘I … plunder them.’a 10 Or the plumb-lineb 14 Or two who bring oil anda 5 Or windsb 6 Or horses after themc 8 Or spiritd 11 Hebrew Jehozadak, a variant of Jozadake 13 Or theref 14 Syriac; Hebrew Helemg 14 Or and the gracious one, thea 1 Or Damascus. / For the eye of the Lord is on all people, / as well as on the tribes of Israel,b 10 That is, the Euphratesc 15 Or bowl, / likea 10 Or the Spiritb 10 Or toa 5 Or 5My mountain valley will be blocked and will extend to Azel.
