Jerusalem to Be Attacked |
|
|
 |
|
Zechariah 12:1
|
|
The burden of the word of the LORD concerning
Israel. Thus declares the LORD who stretches out the heavens, lays the foundation
of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him, |
|
|
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:2
|
|
"Behold, I am going to make Jerusalem a cup
that causes reeling to all the peoples around; and when the siege is against Jerusalem,
it will also be against Judah. |
| |
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:3
|
|
"It will come about in that day that I will
make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who lift it will be severely
injured. And all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it. |
| |
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:4
|
|
"In that day," declares the LORD, "I will strike
every horse with bewilderment and his rider with madness. But I will watch over
the house of Judah, while I strike every horse of the peoples with blindness. |
| |
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:5
|
|
"Then the clans of Judah will say in their hearts,
'A strong support for us are the inhabitants of Jerusalem through the LORD of
hosts, their God.' |
| |
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:6
|
|
"In that day I will make the clans of Judah
like a firepot among pieces of wood and a flaming torch among sheaves, so they
will consume on the right hand and on the left all the surrounding peoples, while
the inhabitants of Jerusalem again dwell on their own sites in Jerusalem. |
| |
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:7
|
|
"The LORD also will save the tents of Judah
first, so that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants
of Jerusalem will not be magnified above Judah. |
|
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:8
|
|
"In that day the LORD will defend the inhabitants
of Jerusalem, and the one who is feeble among them in that day will be like David,
and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the LORD before them. |
|
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:9
|
|
"And in that day I will set about to destroy
all the nations that come against Jerusalem. |
|
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:10
|
|
"I will pour out on the house of David and on
the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the Spirit of grace and of supplication, so that
they will look on Me whom they have pierced; and they will mourn for Him, as one
mourns for an only son, and they will weep bitterly over Him like the bitter weeping
over a firstborn. |
|
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:11
|
|
"In that day there will be great mourning in
Jerusalem, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the plain of Megiddo. |
|
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:12
|
|
"The land will mourn, every 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; |
|
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:13
|
|
the 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; |
|
|
|
|
Zechariah 12:14
|
|
all the families that remain, every family by
itself and their wives by themselves. |
