Zec 12:6

Zec 12:6“In that day I will make the clans of Judah like a firepot among pieces of wood and a flaming torch among sheaves, so they will consume on the right hand and on the left all the surrounding peoples, while the inhabitants of Jerusalem again dwell on their own sites in Jerusalem.

Zec 12:7

Zec 12:10

Zec 12:10“I will pour out on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, [fn]the Spirit of grace and of supplication, so that they will look on Me whom they have pierced; and they will mourn for Him, as one mourns for an only son, and they will weep bitterly over Him like the bitter weeping over a firstborn.

Zec 12:11

Zec 12:11“In that day there will be great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the [fn]plain of [fn]Megiddo.

Zec 12:12

Zec 12:12“The land will mourn, every family by itself; the family of the house of David by itself and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Nathan by itself and their wives by themselves;

Zec 12:13

Zec 12:13the family of the house of Levi by itself and their wives by themselves; the family of the Shimeites by itself and their wives by themselves;
