The Lord will Deliver Jerusalem

12A declaration: the word of the Lord to Israel. The Lord, who stretches out the heavens, who lays the foundation of the earth, and who frames the spirit of man within himself, declares,H4853H1697H3068H3478H5002H3068H5186H8064H3245H776H3335H7307H120H7130
2"Look, I am making Jerusalem an unstable cup toward all of its surrounding armies when they lay siege against Judah and Jerusalem.H7760H3389H5592H7478H5971H5439H4692H3063H3389
3It will come about at that time that I will make Jerusalem a heavy weight; so everyone who burdens themselves with it will be crushed, even though all of the nations of the earth gather themselves against it.H3117H7760H3389H4614H68H5971H6006H8295H8295H1471H776H622
4At that time," declares the Lord, "I will strike every horse with panic and every rider with insanity. I will keep my eyes on the house of Judah, but I will blind every horse of the invading armies.3H3117H5002H3068H5221H5483H8541H7392H7697H6491H5869H1004H3063H5221H5483H5971H5788
5"The leaders of Judah will say to themselves, 'Those who live in Jerusalem are my strength through the Lord of the Heavenly Armies, their God.H441H3063H559H3820H3427H3389H556H3068H6635H430
6At that time I will make the leaders of Judah like a brazier filled with blazing wood, or like a torch setting fire to harvested grain. They will devour all the invading armies, both on the right hand and on the left. As a result, Jerusalem will again be inhabited in its rightful place - as the real Jerusalem.H3117H7760H441H3063H3595H784H6086H3940H784H5995H398H5971H5439H3225H8040H3389H3427H3389
7"The Lord will deliver the tents of Judah first, so that neither the glory of the house of David nor the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem overshadows Judah.H3068H3467H168H3063H7223H8597H1004H1732H8597H3427H3389H1431H3063
8At that time the Lord will defend those who live in Jerusalem, and the one who is feeble among them at that time will be like David. The entire house of David will be like God - indeed, like the angel of the Lord in their midst!H3117H3068H1598H3427H3389H3782H3117H1732H1004H1732H430H4397H3068H6440
9"At that time I will search out and destroy all of the nations who have come against Jerusalem.H3117H1245H8045H1471H935H3389

Mourning in Jerusalem

10I will pour out on the house of David and on the residents of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and of supplications, and they will look to me?the one whom they pierced." Then they will mourn for him, as for an only son. They will grieve bitterly for him, as for a firstborn son.H8210H1004H1732H3427H3389H7307H2580H8469H5027H1856H4553H5594H3173H4843H4843H1060
11At that time Jerusalem will mourn deeply, like the mourning about Hadad-Rimmon that took place in the plain of Megiddo.H3117H1431H4553H3389H4553H1910H1237H4023
12And so the land will mourn, families by families alone by themselves?the family of the house of David by itself with their wives by themselves, the family of the house of Nathan by itself with their wives by themselves,H776H5594H4940H4940H905H4940H1004H1732H802H4940H1004H5416H802
13the family of the house of Levi by itself with their wives by themselves, the family of Shimei by itself with their wives by themselves - 14all of the surviving families by themselves, along with their wives by themselves.H4940H1004H3878H802H4940H8097H802
