For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city shall be taken and the houses plundered and the women raped.

And you shall flee to the valley of my mountains, for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azal. And you shall flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the Lord my God will come, and all the holy ones with him. …
