Thus declaresH5002 the LordH3068 who 2stretchesH5186 out the heavensH8064, 3laysH3245 the foundationH3245 of the earthH776, and 4formsH3335 the spiritH7307 of manH120 withinH7130 him, 2“BeholdH2009, I am going to makeH7760 JerusalemH3389 a 5cupH5592 6that causes reelingH7478 to allH3605 the peoplesH5971 aroundH5439; and when the siegeH4692 is againstH5921 JerusalemH3389, it will alsoH1571 be againstH5921 7JudahH3063. 3It will comeH1961 about in that dayH3117 that I will makeH7760 JerusalemH3389 a heavyH4614 8stoneH68 for allH3605 the peoplesH5971; allH3605 who liftH6006 it will be 9severelyH8295 10injuredH8295. And allH3605 the 11nationsH1471 of the earthH776 will be gatheredH622 againstH5921 it. 4In that dayH3117,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “I will strikeH5221 everyH3605 horseH5483 with bewildermentH8541 and his riderH7392 with madnessH7697. But I will 12watchH6491H5869 overH5921 the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, while I strikeH5221 everyH3605 horseH5483 of the peoplesH5971 with blindnessH5788.
