12This is the word of the LORD concerning Israel. The LORD, who stretches out the heavens, who lays the foundation of the earth, and who forms the spirit of man within him, declares:H4853H1697H3068H3478H5002H3068H5186H8064H3245H776H3335H7307H120H71302"I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem.H7760H3389H5592H7478H5971H5439H4692H3063H33893On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves.H3117H7760H3389H4614H68H5971H6006H8295H8295H1471H776H6224On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness," declares the LORD. "I will keep a watchful eye over the house of Judah, but I will blind all the horses of the nations.H3117H5002H3068H5221H5483H8541H7392H7697H6491H5869H1004H3063H5221H5483H5971H57885Then the leaders of Judah will say in their hearts, 'The people of Jerusalem are strong, because the LORD Almighty is their God.'H441H3063H559H3820H3427H3389H556H3068H6635H4306"On that day I will make the leaders of Judah like a firepot in a woodpile, like a flaming torch among sheaves. They will consume right and left all the surrounding peoples, but Jerusalem will remain intact in her place.H3117H7760H441H3063H3595H784H6086H3940H784H5995H398H5971H5439H3225H8040H3389H3427H33897"The LORD will save the dwellings of Judah first, so that the honor of the house of David and of Jerusalem's inhabitants may not be greater than that of Judah.H3068H3467H168H3063H7223H8597H1004H1732H8597H3427H3389H1431H30638On that day the LORD will shield those who live in Jerusalem, so that the feeblest among them will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the Angel of the LORD going before them.H3117H3068H1598H3427H3389H3782H3117H1732H1004H1732H430H4397H3068H64409On that day I will set out to destroy all the nations that attack Jerusalem.H3117H1245H8045H1471H935H3389
Mourning for the One They Pierced
10"And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.H8210H1004H1732H3427H3389H7307H2580H8469H5027H1856H4553H5594H3173H4843H4843H106011On that day the weeping in Jerusalem will be great, like the weeping of Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.H3117H1431H4553H3389H4553H1910H1237H402312The land will mourn, each clan by itself, with their wives by themselves: the clan of the house of David and their wives, the clan of the house of Nathan and their wives,H776H5594H4940H4940H905H4940H1004H1732H802H4940H1004H5416H80213the clan of the house of Levi and their wives, the clan of Shimei and their wives,H4940H1004H3878H802H4940H8097H80214and all the rest of the clans and their wives.H4940H7604H4940H802
