² I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem, to lay siege against it. The city will be captured, the houses will be ransacked, the women raped, and half of the city will go into exile, but the remaining people will not be cut off from the city. ³ Then the Lord will go out to battle against those nations, waging war as in a day of battle. ⁴ His feet will stand in that day on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem. Then the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming^[a] a very large valley, with half of the mountain moving toward the north and half toward the south.
