RF ZEC 12:1 The Burden of the Lord to Israel.
The EVER-LIVING, Who extended the heavens, and founded the earth, and formed the spirit of man in his breast, says,—
RF ZEC 12:2 "Look!—I will make Jerusalem a cup of staggering to all the Peoples; and they will be also against Judah when besieging Jerusalem.
RF ZEC 12:3 Yes! at that time I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the Peoples, whoever carries it will be totally crushed;—yet all the Heathen of the earth will collect against it.
RF ZEC 12:4 "At that time," says the EVER-LIVING, "I will strike every horse with madness, and his rider with frenzy; and will open My eyes upon the House of Judah, but will strike all the horsemen of the Nations blind.
RF ZEC 12:5 Then the Chieftains of Judah will reflect in their hearts, The people of Jerusalem are my strength, through the LORD OF HOSTS their GOD.'
RF ZEC 12:6 "At that time I will make the Chieftains of Judah like a fire-grate to wood, and like a torch of fire to sheaves, and they shall consume on the right and left the whole of the Peoples around; and Jerusalem shall again reside under herself, in Jerusalem."
RF ZEC 12:7 But the EVER-LIVING will first rescue the Tents of Judah, so that the House of David may not exalt its beauty, and the beautiful site of Jerusalem, above Judah.
RF ZEC 12:8 The EVER-LIVING will at the same time defend the population of Jerusalem, and their feeble shall become at that time like David; and the House of David shall become like a DIVINE-POWER; like a Messenger of the EVER-LIVING before them.
RF ZEC 12:9 And at that time I will seek to destroy all the Heathen, who come against Jerusalem,
RF ZEC 12:10 and I will pour out upon the House of David, and upon the population of Jerusalem the spirit of kindness and compassion, and they shall look upon Him1 Whom they pierced, and mourn over Him, as if mourning over a loved one; and grieve over Him, as over the first-born!
RF ZEC 12:11 There shall then be a great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning at Hadad-rimon, in the vale of Megidon,
RF ZEC 12:12 and the country will mourn, family by family alone; the House of David alone; the family of Bethnathan alone; and their wives alone!
RF ZEC 12:13 The family of the House of Levi alone; and their wives alone; the family of Shimai alone; and their wives alone!
RF ZEC 12:14 all the families of the rest, family by family, alone; and their wives alone!

1 NOTE: Ch. 12, Verse 10, "Upon Him "Some manuscripts read "On Me—Whom they have pierced." Both letters in the Hebrew alphabet are very much alike, i.e., "I," and "Me." So that it is difficult to decide which is absolutely the correct one, as the slightest stroke of a pen transforms one into the other. In a theological sense both might be right.—F.F.
