12:1 The
burden
of
a
word
of
Jehovah
on
Israel.
An
affirmation
of
Jehovah,
Stretching
out
heaven,
and
founding
earth,
And
forming
the
spirit
of
man
in
his
midst.
12:2 Lo,
I
am
making
Jerusalem
a
cup
of
reeling
To
all
the
peoples
round
about,
And
also
against
Judah
it
is,
In
the
siege
against
Jerusalem.
12:3 And
it
hath
come
to
pass,
in
that
day,
I
make
Jerusalem
a
burdensome
stone
to
all
the
peoples,
All
loading
it
are
completely
pressed
down,
And
gathered
against
it
have
been
all
nations
of
the
earth.
12:4 In
that
day--an
affirmation
of
Jehovah,
I
do
smite
every
horse
with
astonishment,
And
its
rider
with
madness,
And
on
the
house
of
Judah
I
open
My
eyes,
And
every
horse
of
the
peoples
I
smite
with
blindness.
12:5 And
leaders
of
Judah
have
said
in
their
heart,
`Strength
to
me
[are]
the
inhabitants
of
Jerusalem,
In
Jehovah
of
Hosts
their
God.'
12:6 In
that
day
I
make
the
leaders
of
Judah
As
a
hearth
of
fire
among
trees,
And
as
a
torch
of
fire
in
a
sheaf,
And
they
have
consumed--on
the
right
and
on
the
left--all
the
peoples
round
about,
And
Jerusalem
hath
inhabited
again
her
place
in
Jerusalem.
12:7 And
saved
hath
Jehovah
the
tents
of
Judah
first,
So
that
become
not
great
against
Judah
Doth
the
beauty
of
the
house
of
David,
And
the
beauty
of
the
inhabitant
of
Jerusalem.
12:8 In
that
day
cover
over
doth
Jehovah
the
inhabitant
of
Jerusalem,
And
the
stumbling
among
them
hath
been
in
that
day
as
David,
And
the
house
of
David
as
God--As
a
messenger
of
Jehovah--before
them.
12:9 And
it
hath
come
to
pass,
in
that
day,
I
seek
to
destroy
all
the
nations
Who
are
coming
in
against
Jerusalem,
12:10 And
I
have
poured
on
the
house
of
David,
And
on
the
inhabitant
of
Jerusalem,
A
spirit
of
grace
and
supplications,
And
they
have
looked
unto
Me
whom
they
pierced,
And
they
have
mourned
over
it,
Like
a
mourning
over
the
only
one,
And
they
have
been
in
bitterness
for
it,
Like
a
bitterness
over
the
first-born.
12:11 In
that
day,
great
is
the
mourning
of
Jerusalem,
As
the
mourning
of
Hadadrimmon
in
the
valley
of
Megiddon,
12:12 And
mourned
hath
the
land--every
family
apart,
The
family
of
the
house
of
David
apart,
And
their
women
apart;
The
family
of
the
house
of
Nathan
apart,
And
their
women
apart;
12:13 The
family
of
the
house
of
Levi
apart,
And
their
women
apart;
The
family
of
Shimei
apart,
And
their
women
apart,
12:14 All
the
families
that
are
left,
Every
family
apart,
and
their
women
apart!
