Zechariah 14

וְנַסְתֶּם גֵּֽיא-הָרַי כִּֽי-יַגִּיעַ גֵּי-הָרִים אֶל-אָצַל וְנַסְתֶּם כַּאֲשֶׁר נַסְתֶּם מִפְּנֵי הָרַעַשׁ בִּימֵי עֻזִּיָּה מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה וּבָא יְהוָה אֱלֹהַי כָּל-קְדֹשִׁים עִמָּֽךְ׃

And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
