12The burden of the word of the LORD concerning Israel: Thus declares the LORD, who stretched out the heavens and founded the earth and formed the spirit of man within him:H4853H1697H3068H3478H5002H3068H5186H8064H3245H776H3335H7307H120H71302"Behold, I am about to make Jerusalem a cup of staggering to all the surrounding peoples. The siege of Jerusalem will also be against Judah.H7760H3389H5592H7478H5971H5439H4692H3063H33893On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples. All who lift it will surely hurt themselves. And all the nations of the earth will gather against it.H3117H7760H3389H4614H68H5971H6006H8295H8295H1471H776H6224On that day, declares the LORD, I will strike every horse with panic, and its rider with madness. But for the sake of the house of Judah I will keep my eyes open, when I strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.H3117H5002H3068H5221H5483H8541H7392H7697H6491H5869H1004H3063H5221H5483H5971H57885Then the clans of Judah shall say to themselves, 'The inhabitants of Jerusalem have strength through the LORD of hosts, their God.'H441H3063H559H3820H3427H3389H556H3068H6635H4306"On that day I will make the clans of Judah like a blazing pot in the midst of wood, like a flaming torch among sheaves. And they shall devour to the right and to the left all the surrounding peoples, while Jerusalem shall again be inhabited in its place, in Jerusalem.H3117H7760H441H3063H3595H784H6086H3940H784H5995H398H5971H5439H3225H8040H3389H3427H33897"And the LORD will give salvation to the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem may not surpass that of Judah.H3068H3467H168H3063H7223H8597H1004H1732H8597H3427H3389H1431H30638On that day the LORD will protect the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the feeblest among them on that day shall be like David, and the house of David shall be like God, like the angel of the LORD, going before them.H3117H3068H1598H3427H3389H3782H3117H1732H1004H1732H430H4397H3068H64409And on that day I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.H3117H1245H8045H1471H935H3389
Him Whom They Have Pierced
10"And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and pleas for mercy, so that, when they look on me, on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a firstborn.H8210H1004H1732H3427H3389H7307H2580H8469H5027H1856H4553H5594H3173H4843H4843H106011On that day the mourning in Jerusalem will be as great as the mourning for Hadad-rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.H3117H1431H4553H3389H4553H1910H1237H402312The land shall mourn, each family by itself: the family of the house of David by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Nathan by itself, and their wives by themselves;H776H5594H4940H4940H905H4940H1004H1732H802H4940H1004H5416H80213the family of the house of Levi by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the Shimeites by itself, and their wives by themselves;H4940H1004H3878H802H4940H8097H80214and all the families that are left, each by itself, and their wives by themselves.H4940H7604H4940H802
