Zechariah 12:2-7

2Behold, I will makeH7760 JerusalemH3389 a cupH5592 of tremblingH7478 to all the surroundingH5439 peopleH5971, when they shall be in the siegeH4692 both against JudahH3063 and against JerusalemH3389.12

3And in that dayH3117 will I makeH7760 JerusalemH3389 a burdensomeH4614 stoneH68 for all peopleH5971: all that burdenH6006 themselves with it shall be cut in piecesH8295, though all the peopleH1471 of the earthH776 be gatheredH622 against it.

4In that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, I will smiteH5221 every horseH5483 with astonishmentH8541, and his riderH7392 with madnessH7697: and I will openH6491 my eyesH5869 upon the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, and will smiteH5221 every horseH5483 of the peopleH5971 with blindnessH5788.

5And the governorsH441 of JudahH3063 shall sayH559 in their heartH3820, The inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 shall be my strengthH556 in the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 their GodH430.3

6In that dayH3117 will I makeH7760 the governorsH441 of JudahH3063 like an hearthH3595 of fireH784 among the woodH6086, and like a torchH3940 of fireH784 in a sheafH5995; and they shall devourH398 all the surroundingH5439 peopleH5971, on the right handH3225 and on the leftH8040: and JerusalemH3389 shall be inhabitedH3427 again in her own place, even in JerusalemH3389.

7The LORDH3068 also shall saveH3467 the tentsH168 of JudahH3063 firstH7223, that the gloryH8597 of the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 and the gloryH8597 of the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 may not magnifyH1431 themselves against JudahH3063.
