12:1 | The burden <04853> of the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> for Israel <03478>, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>, which stretcheth <05186> (8802) forth the heavens <08064>, and layeth the foundation <03245> (8801) of the earth <0776>, and formeth <03335> (8802) the spirit <07307> of man <0120> within <07130> him. |
12:2 | Behold, I will make <07760> (8802) Jerusalem <03389> a cup <05592> of trembling <07478> unto all the people <05971> round about <05439>, when they shall be in the siege <04692> both against Judah <03063> [and] against Jerusalem <03389>. {trembling: or, slumber, or, poison} {when...: or, and also against Judah shall he be which shall be in siege against Jerusalem} |
12:3 | And in that day <03117> will I make <07760> (8799) Jerusalem <03389> a burdensome <04614> stone <068> for all people <05971>: all that burden <06006> (8802) themselves with it shall be cut in pieces <08295> (8800) <08295> (8735), though all the people <01471> of the earth <0776> be gathered together <0622> (8738) against it. |
12:4 | In that day <03117>, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>, I will smite <05221> (8686) every horse <05483> with astonishment <08541>, and his rider <07392> (8802) with madness <07697>: and I will open <06491> (8799) mine eyes <05869> upon the house <01004> of Judah <03063>, and will smite <05221> (8686) every horse <05483> of the people <05971> with blindness <05788>. |
12:5 | And the governors <0441> of Judah <03063> shall say <0559> (8804) in their heart <03820>, The inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Jerusalem <03389> [shall be] my strength <0556> in the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> their God <0430>. {The inhabitants...: or, There is strength to me and to the inhabitants, etc} |
12:6 | In that day <03117> will I make <07760> (8799) the governors <0441> of Judah <03063> like an hearth <03595> of fire <0784> among the wood <06086>, and like a torch <03940> of fire <0784> in a sheaf <05995>; and they shall devour <0398> (8804) all the people <05971> round about <05439>, on the right hand <03225> and on the left <08040>: and Jerusalem <03389> shall be inhabited <03427> (8804) again in her own place, [even] in Jerusalem <03389>. |
12:7 | The LORD <03068> also shall save <03467> (8689) the tents <0168> of Judah <03063> first <07223>, that the glory <08597> of the house <01004> of David <01732> and the glory <08597> of the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Jerusalem <03389> do not magnify <01431> (8799) [themselves] against Judah <03063>. |
12:8 | In that day <03117> shall the LORD <03068> defend <01598> (8686) the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Jerusalem <03389>; and he that is feeble <03782> (8737) among them at that day <03117> shall be as David <01732>; and the house <01004> of David <01732> [shall be] as God <0430>, as the angel <04397> of the LORD <03068> before <06440> them. {feeble: or, abject: Heb. fallen} |
12:9 | And it shall come to pass in that day <03117>, [that] I will seek <01245> (8762) to destroy <08045> (8687) all the nations <01471> that come <0935> (8802) against Jerusalem <03389>. |
12:10 | And I will pour <08210> (8804) upon the house <01004> of David <01732>, and upon the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Jerusalem <03389>, the spirit <07307> of grace <02580> and of supplications <08469>: and they shall look <05027> (8689) upon me whom they have pierced <01856> (8804), and they shall mourn <04553> for him, as one mourneth <05594> (8804) for [his] only <03173> [son], and shall be in bitterness <04843> (8687) for him, as one that is in bitterness <04843> (8687) for [his] firstborn <01060>. |
12:11 | In that day <03117> shall there be a great <01431> (8799) mourning <04553> in Jerusalem <03389>, as the mourning <04553> of Hadadrimmon <01910> in the valley <01237> of Megiddon <04023>. |
12:12 | And the land <0776> shall mourn <05594> (8804), every <04940> family <04940> apart <0905>; the family <04940> of the house <01004> of David <01732> apart, and their wives <0802> apart; the family <04940> of the house <01004> of Nathan <05416> apart, and their wives <0802> apart; {every...: Heb. families, families} |
12:13 | The family <04940> of the house <01004> of Levi <03878> apart, and their wives <0802> apart; the family <04940> of Shimei <08097> apart, and their wives <0802> apart; {of Shimei: or, of Simeon, as LXX} |
12:14 | All the families <04940> that remain <07604> (8737), every family <04940> apart, and their wives <0802> apart. |
