Zechariah 13:8-9
8In the whole land, declares the Lord,two thirds shall be cut off and perish,
aand one third shall be left alive.
9And bI will put this third into the fire,
and refine them as one refines silver,
and test them as gold is tested.
cThey will call upon my name,
and dI will answer them.
eI will say, ‘They are my people’;
and they will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’”
Zechariah 14:2
2For fI will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and gthe city shall be taken hand the houses plundered iand the women raped. jHalf of the city shall go out into exile, but the rest of the people shall not be cut off from the city.Revelation of John 17:16-17
16And kthe ten horns that you saw, they and the beast lwill hate the prostitute. They will make her mdesolate and nnaked, and odevour her flesh and pburn her up with fire, 17for qGod has put it into their hearts to carry out his purpose by being of one mind and rhanding over their royal power to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled.
