Di Day Wey our Papa Go Fight for Jerusalem

Di nations gather against Jerusalem and dem take di city — den our Papa comot go fight. Di Mount of Olives split open, living water dey flow for dry season and rainy season, e be king over di whole earth, and even di cooking pot dem go become holy.

Chapter 14.

A day dey come for our Papa, wen dem go share di property wey dem tif from una among una. I go gada all di nations come fight against Jerusalem. Dem go capture di city, dem go tif from di houses, dem go rape di women. Half of di city go go exile, but di rest of di people no go comot from di city. Den our Papa go comot go fight against dem nations, di way e dey fight for battle day. For dat day im foot go stand for di Mount of Olives wey dey east of Jerusalem, and e go split for di middle, from east go west, come be one big valley; half of di mountain go move go north, half go south. Una go run comot pass di valley of my mountains, because e go reach Azal. Una go run di way una run from di earthquake for di days of Uzziah king of Judah. Den my Papa go come, and all di holy ones go dey with am.

For dat day, light no go dey, cold or frost no go dey. E go be one special day, wey na only our Papa sabi—e no go be day, e no go be night; but for evening, light go dey.

For dat day, water wey get life go flow comot from Jerusalem, half go dey face di eastern sea and half go dey face di western sea, for dry season and rainy season, na di same. And our Papa go be king over di whole earth. For dat day, our Papa go be one, and im name go be one. a a v9 Israel im great confession—say our Papa na one—for here e come turn to di song of di whole earth: di day wey everybody everywhere go sabi di one Papa as king.

Di whole land go turn to plain, from Geba go Rimmon wey dey south of Jerusalem. But Jerusalem go rise and stay for im place, from di Benjamin Gate go di place wey di First Gate dey, go di Corner Gate, and from di Tower of Hananel go di king im winepresses. People go live inside am, and dem no go ever again mark am for destruction; Jerusalem go live for safety.

Na dis be di plague wey our Papa go bring on every nation wey fight against Jerusalem: dia body go rotten as dem dey stand, dia eyes go rotten for dia socket, and dia tongue go rotten for dia mouth. For dat day, one big fear from our Papa go fall on dem; everyone go grab im neighbor im hand, and im hand go rise against im neighbor im hand. Judah too go fight for Jerusalem, and dem go gada di wealth of all di nations wey dey around—gold, silver, and cloth plenty well well. Di same plague go strike di horses, mules, camels, donkeys, and all di animals wey dey inside dem camps.

Den everybody wey survive from di nations wey attack Jerusalem go go up year after year to worship di King, di Papa wey get di armies of heaven, and to celebrate di Feast of Booths. b b v16 Di Feast of Booths (Sukkot) na harvest festival wey last one week, wey di people of Israel go dey live for temporary shelter to remember how God take provide for dem for di wilderness years. Any family for di earth wey no go up go Jerusalem to worship di King, di Papa wey get di armies of heaven, no go get rain. If Egypt im family no go up come show demself, rain no go fall on dem; di plague go come, di one wey our Papa go take strike di nations wey no go up to celebrate di Feast of Booths. Na dis go be di punishment of Egypt and all di nations wey no go up to celebrate di Feast of Booths.

For dat day, dem go write "Holy to our Papa" on di bells of di horses, and di pots for our Papa im house go be like di bowls wey dey front of di altar. Every pot for Jerusalem and Judah go be holy to di Papa wey get di armies of heaven, so dat everybody wey dey sacrifice fit come, take some, and cook inside dem. For dat day, no trader go remain for di house of di Papa wey get di armies of heaven.
