Zechariah 12:5-9
5Then the 1clansH505 of JudahH3063 will sayH559 in their heartsH3820, ‘The inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 are a 2strongH556 supportH556 for us through the LordH3068 of armiesH6635, their GodH430.’
6“On that dayH3117 I will makeH7760 the 3clansH505 of JudahH3063 like a 4firepotH784H3595 among pieces of woodH6086 and a flamingH784 torchH3940 among sheavesH5995, so they will consumeH398 on the rightH3225 and on the leftH8040 allH3605 the surroundingH5439 peoplesH5971, while 5the 6inhabitants of JerusalemH3389 againH5750 liveH3427 onH8478 their own sitesH8478 in JerusalemH3389. 7The LordH3068 also will 7saveH3467 the tentsH168 of JudahH3063 firstH7223, soH4616 thatH4616 the gloryH8597 of the houseH1004 of 8DavidH1732 and the gloryH8597 of the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 will not be greaterH1431 thanH5921 JudahH3063. 8On that dayH3117 the LordH3068 will 9protectH1598 the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and the one who 1011is feebleH3782 among them on that dayH3117 will be like DavidH1732, and the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 will be like 12GodH430, like the 13angelH4397 of the LordH3068 beforeH6440 them. 9And on that dayH3117 I will 14seekH1245 to destroyH8045 allH3605 the nationsH1471 that comeH935 againstH5921 JerusalemH3389.
