Zechariah 12:8-11
New King James Version
8 In that day the Lord will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; the one 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 the Lord before them. 9 It shall be in that day that I will seek to (A)destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
Mourning for the Pierced One
10 (B)“And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will (C)look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him (D)as one mourns for his only son, and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn. 11 In that day there shall be a great (E)mourning in Jerusalem, (F)like the mourning at Hadad Rimmon in the plain of [a]Megiddo.
