Zechariah 14:6

On that day there will be no light – the sources of light in the heavens will congeal. ¹ 

On that day there will be no light, no cold or frost.

In that day there will be no light; the luminaries will dwindle.

On that day the sources of light will no longer shine,

What a Day that will be! No more cold nights--in fact, no more nights!

And in that day there will be no heat or cold or ice;

On that day there shall not be either cold or frost.

It shall come to pass in that day That there will be no light; The lights will diminish.

On that day there will be no light – the sources of light in the heavens will congeal. ¹ 

¹ tn Heb “the splendid will congeal.” This difficult phrase (MT יְקָרוֹת יְקִפָּאוֹן, yÿqarot yÿqippa’on) is not clarified by the LXX which presupposes וְקָרוּת וְקִפָּאוֹן (vÿqarut vÿqippa’on, “and cold and ice,” a reading followed by NAB, NIV, NCV, NRSV, TEV). Besides the fact that cold and ice do not necessarily follow the absence of light, the idea here is that day will be night and night day. The heavenly sources of light “freeze up” as it were, and refuse to shine.
