[4]And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east side, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof: toward the east and toward the west there shall be a very great valley, and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of the mountain toward the south. [No book]
[5]And ye shall flee unto the valley of the mountains: for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee like as ye fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. [No book]

[10]All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon, toward the south of Jerusalem, and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place: from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananiel, unto the king's wine presses. [No book]
[11]And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more destruction, but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited. [No book]

[13]But in that day a great tumult of the Lord shall be among them, and everyone shall take the hand of his neighbor, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbor. [No book]
[14]And Judah shall fight also against Jerusalem, and the arm of all the heathen shall be gathered round about, with gold and silver, and great abundance of apparel. [No book]
