Zechariah:12:1-9

*
The burden of the word of Jehovah for Israel ,
says Jehovah ,
who stretches forth the heavens ,
and lays the foundation of the earth ,
and forms the spirit of man in his midst .
*
Behold !
I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling to all the peoples all around ,
and it shall also be against Judah in the siege against Jerusalem .
*
And in that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples ;
all who lift it shall be slashed .
And all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it .
*
In that day I will strike every horse with panic and his rider with madness ,
says Jehovah .
And I will open My eyes on the house of Judah ,
and I will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness .
*
And the leaders of Judah shall say in their heart ,
The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in Jehovah of hosts ,
their God .
*
In that day I will make the leaders of Judah like a hearth of fire among the wood ,
and like a torch of fire among cut grain .
And they shall devour all the peoples all around ,
on the right hand and on the left hand .
And Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her place ,
in Jerusalem .
*
Jehovah also shall save the tents of Judah first ,
so that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem may not be magnified above Judah .
*
In that day Jehovah shall protect around the inhabitants of Jerusalem .
And it will be ,
he who is feeble among them in that day shall be like David ,
and the house of David shall be like God ,
like the Angel of Jehovah before them .
*
And it shall be in that day ,
I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem .
