< Zechariah 12 >

1 [the] oracle of [the] word of Yahweh on Israel [the] utterance of Yahweh [who] stretched out heaven and [who] founded earth and [who] formed [the] spirit of a human in inner being his.
The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, says the LORD, which stretches forth the heavens, and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him.
2 Here! I [am] about to make Jerusalem a basin of reeling for all the peoples all around and also on Judah it will be in the siege on Jerusalem.
Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.
3 And it will be on the day that I will make Jerusalem a stone of burden for all the peoples all [those who] carry it severely they will injure themselves and they will gather on it all [the] nations of the earth.
And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
4 On the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh I will strike every horse with bewilderment and rider its with madness and over [the] house of Judah I will open eyes my and every horse of the peoples I will strike with blindness.
In that day, says the LORD, I will strike every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the people with blindness.
5 And they will say [the] chiefs of Judah in heart their [are] strength of me [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem by Yahweh of hosts God their.
And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God.
6 On the day that I will make [the] chiefs of Judah like a pot of fire among wood and like a torch of fire among cut grain and they will consume on [the] right [side] and on [the] left [side] all the peoples all around and it will remain Jerusalem again in place its in Jerusalem.
In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.
7 And he will save Yahweh [the] tents of Judah at the first so that not it will be great [the] splendor of [the] house of David and [the] splendor of [the] inhabitant[s] of Jerusalem above Judah.
The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah.
8 On the day that he will defend Yahweh for [the] inhabitant[s] of Jerusalem and he will be the [one who] stumbles among them on the day that like David and [the] house of David [will be] like God like [the] angel of Yahweh before them.
In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them.
9 And it will be on the day that I will seek to destroy all the nations that are coming on Jerusalem.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10 And I will pour out on [the] house of David and on - [the] inhabitant[s] of Jerusalem a spirit of favor and supplications and they will look to me [the one] whom they have pierced through and they will mourn on him like mourning on only [son] and they will show bitterness on him as shows bitterness on firstborn.
And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.
11 On the day that it will be great the mourning in Jerusalem like [the] mourning of Hadad-Rimmon in [the] plain of Megiddo.
In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
12 And it will mourn the land clans clans alone [the] clan of [the] house of David alone and wives their alone [the] clan of [the] house of Nathan alone and wives their alone.
And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;
13 [the] clan of [the] house of Levi alone and wives their alone [the] clan of the Shimeite[s] alone and wives their alone.
The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;
14 All the clans which remain clans clans alone and wives their alone.
All the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
