Judah’s Security
12 A pronouncement:
The word of the Lord concerning Israel.
A declaration of the Lord,
who stretched out the heavens,(A)
laid the foundation of the earth,(B)
and formed the spirit of man within him.
2 “Look, I will make Jerusalem a cup that causes staggering(C) for the peoples who surround the city. The siege against Jerusalem will also involve Judah.(D) 3 On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who try to lift it will injure themselves severely when all the nations of the earth gather against her.(E) 4 On that day”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness.(F) I will keep a watchful eye on(G) the house of Judah but strike all the horses of the nations with blindness. 5 Then each of the leaders of Judah will think to himself: The residents of Jerusalem are my strength through the Lord of Armies, their God. 6 On that day I will make the leaders of Judah like a firepot in a woodpile,(H) like a flaming torch among sheaves; they will consume all the peoples around them on the right and the left, while Jerusalem continues to be inhabited on its site, in Jerusalem. 7 The Lord will save the tents of Judah first, so that the glory of David’s house and the glory of Jerusalem’s residents may not be greater than that of Judah. 8 On that day the Lord will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem,(I) so that on that day the one who is weakest among them will be like David on that day, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the Lord, before them.(J) 9 On that day I will set out to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
Mourning for the Pierced One
10 “Then I will pour out a spirit[a](K) of grace and prayer on the house of David and the residents of Jerusalem, and they will look at[b] me whom they pierced. They will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child and weep bitterly for him as one weeps for a firstborn.(L) 11 On that day the mourning in Jerusalem will be as great as the mourning of Hadad-rimmon in the plain of Megiddo. 12 The land will mourn, every family by itself: the family of David’s house by itself and their women by themselves; the family of Nathan’s[c](M) house by itself and their women by themselves; 13 the family of Levi’s house by itself and their women by themselves; the family of Shimei[d](N) by itself and their women by themselves; 14 all the remaining families, every family by itself, and their women by themselves.

12 Dies ist die Last des Wortes vom HERRN über Israel, spricht der HERR, der den Himmel ausbreitet und die Erde gründet und den Odem des Menschen in ihm macht.
2 Siehe, ich will Jerusalem zum Taumelbecher zurichten allen Völkern, die umher sind; auch Juda wird's gelten, wenn Jerusalem belagert wird.
3 Zur selben Zeit will ich Jerusalem machen zum Laststein allen Völkern; alle, die ihn wegheben wollen, sollen sich daran zerschneiden; denn es werden sich alle Heiden auf Erden wider sie versammeln.
4 Zu der Zeit, spricht der HERR, will ich alle Rosse scheu und ihren Reitern bange machen; aber über das Haus Juda will ich meine Augen offen haben und alle Rosse der Völker mit Blindheit plagen.
5 Und die Fürsten in Juda werden sagen in ihrem Herzen: Es seien mir nur die Bürger zu Jerusalem getrost in dem HERRN Zebaoth, ihrem Gott.
6 Zu der Zeit will ich die Fürsten Juda's machen zur Feuerpfanne im Holz und zur Fackel im Stroh, daß sie verzehren zur Rechten und zur Linken alle Völker um und um. Und Jerusalem soll auch fürder bleiben an ihrem Ort zu Jerusalem.
7 Und der HERR wird zuerst die Hütten Juda's erretten, auf daß sich nicht hoch rühme das Haus David noch die Bürger zu Jerusalem wider Juda.
8 Zu der Zeit wird der HERR beschirmen die Bürger zu Jerusalem, und es wird geschehen, daß, welcher schwach sein wird unter ihnen zu der Zeit, wird sein wie David; und das Haus David wird sein wie Gott, wie des HERRN Engel vor ihnen.
9 Und zu der Zeit werde ich gedenken, zu vertilgen alle Heiden, die wider Jerusalem gezogen sind.
10 Aber über das Haus David und über die Bürger zu Jerusalem will ich ausgießen den Geist der Gnade und des Gebets; und sie werden mich ansehen, welchen sie zerstochen haben, und werden um ihn klagen, wie man klagt um ein einziges Kind, und werden sich um ihn betrüben, wie man sich betrübt um ein erstes Kind.
11 Zu der Zeit wird große Klage sein zu Jerusalem, wie die war bei Hadad-Rimmon im Felde Megiddos.
12 Und das Land wird klagen, ein jegliches Geschlecht besonders: das Geschlecht des Hauses David besonders und ihre Weiber besonders; das Geschlecht des Hauses Nathan besonders und ihre Weiber besonders;
13 das Geschlecht des Hauses Levi besonders und ihre Weiber besonders; das Geschlecht Simeis besonders und ihre Weiber besonders;
14 also alle übrigen Geschlechter, ein jegliches besonders und ihre Weiber auch besonders.

Jerusalem’s Enemies to Be Destroyed
12 A prophecy:(A) The word of the Lord concerning Israel.
The Lord, who stretches out the heavens,(B) who lays the foundation of the earth,(C) and who forms the human spirit within a person,(D) declares: 2 “I am going to make Jerusalem a cup(E) that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling.(F) Judah(G) will be besieged as well as Jerusalem. 3 On that day, when all the nations(H) of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock(I) for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure(J) themselves. 4 On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness,” declares the Lord. “I will keep a watchful eye over Judah, but I will blind all the horses of the nations.(K) 5 Then the clans of Judah will say in their hearts, ‘The people of Jerusalem are strong,(L) because the Lord Almighty is their God.’
6 “On that day I will make the clans of Judah like a firepot(M) in a woodpile, like a flaming torch among sheaves. They will consume(N) all the surrounding peoples right and left, but Jerusalem will remain intact(O) in her place.
7 “The Lord will save the dwellings of Judah first, so that the honor of the house of David and of Jerusalem’s inhabitants may not be greater than that of Judah.(P) 8 On that day the Lord will shield(Q) those who live in Jerusalem, so that the feeblest(R) among them will be like David, and the house of David will be like God,(S) like the angel of the Lord going before(T) them. 9 On that day I will set out to destroy all the nations(U) that attack Jerusalem.(V)
Mourning for the One They Pierced
10 “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit[a](W) of grace and supplication.(X) They will look on[b] me, the one they have pierced,(Y) and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child,(Z) and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.(AA) 11 On that day the weeping(AB) in Jerusalem will be as great as the weeping of Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.(AC) 12 The land will mourn,(AD) each clan by itself, with their wives by themselves: the clan of the house of David and their wives, the clan of the house of Nathan and their wives, 13 the clan of the house of Levi and their wives, the clan of Shimei and their wives, 14 and all the rest of the clans and their wives.(AE)
