Zechariah 14:12-15
And the Lord will send a plague on all the nations that fought against Jerusalem. Their people will become like walking corpses, their flesh rotting away. Their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths.On that day they will be terrified, stricken by the Lord with great panic. They will fight their neighbors hand to hand.Judah, too, will be fighting at Jerusalem. The wealth of all the neighboring nations will be captured— great quantities of gold and silver and fine clothing.This same plague will strike the horses, mules, camels, donkeys, and all the other animals in the enemy camps.

On that day I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock.

I will watch over the people of Judah, but I will blind all the horses of their enemies.And the clans of Judah will say to themselves,‘ The people of Jerusalem have found strength in the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, their God.’

Nahum 1:3-12
The Lord is slow to get angry, but his power is great, and he never lets the guilty go unpunished. He displays his power in the whirlwind and the storm. The billowing clouds are the dust beneath his feet.At his command the oceans dry up, and the rivers disappear. The lush pastures of Bashan and Carmel fade, and the green forests of Lebanon wither.In his presence the mountains quake, and the hills melt away; the earth trembles, and its people are destroyed.Who can stand before his fierce anger? Who can survive his burning fury? His rage blazes forth like fire, and the mountains crumble to dust in his presence.The Lord is good, a strong refuge when trouble comes. He is close to those who trust in him.But he will sweep away his enemies in an overwhelming flood. He will pursue his foes into the darkness of night.Why are you scheming against the Lord? He will destroy you with one blow; he won’t need to strike twice!His enemies, tangled like thornbushes and staggering like drunks, will be burned up like dry stubble in a field.Who is this wicked counselor of yours who plots evil against the Lord?This is what the Lord says:“ Though the Assyrians have many allies, they will be destroyed and disappear. O my people, I have punished you before, but I will not punish you again.

His cry of judgment will reach the ends of the earth, for the Lord will bring his case against all the nations. He will judge all the people of the earth, slaughtering the wicked with the sword. I, the Lord, have spoken!’”This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says:“ Look! Disaster will fall upon nation after nation! A great whirlwind of fury is rising from the most distant corners of the earth!”In that day those the Lord has slaughtered will fill the earth from one end to the other. No one will mourn for them or gather up their bodies to bury them. They will be scattered on the ground like manure.

Watch, for the day of the Lord is coming when your possessions will be plundered right in front of you!I will gather all the nations to fight against Jerusalem. The city will be taken, the houses looted, and the women raped. Half the population will be taken into captivity, and the rest will be left among the ruins of the city.Then the Lord will go out to fight against those nations, as he has fought in times past.
