1The vision of the words of LORD JEHOVAH about Israel: LORD JEHOVAH says, who stretched out the Heavens and he has constructed the foundations of the Earth, and he created the spirit of a son of man within him 2Behold, I make Jerusalem the gate of quaking for all the nations that are around her, also upon Yehuda there shall be suffering with Jerusalem 3And it will be in that day, I shall make Jerusalem a stone of trampling for all the nations, and all of them who trample it shall be lacerated to be lacerated, and all the nations of Earth will be assembled against it 4In that day, says LORD JEHOVAH, I shall strike all the horses with shock and their riders with bewilderment, and upon those of the house of Yehuda I shall open my eyes, and all the horses of the Gentiles I shall assault with blindness 5And the Princes of Judea will say in their hearts: “The inhabitants of Jerusalem are stronger than we in LORD JEHOVAH of Hosts their God!” 6In that day I shall make the Princes of Judea as a coal of fire in the woods and like a torch of fire in brush, and they shall eat on the right and on the left before all the nations that are around them, and Jerusalem shall settle again in its place in Jerusalem 7And LORD JEHOVAH shall visit the Tabernacle of Judea as from the first, because the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem will not increase beyond that of the house of Yehuda 8In that day LORD JEHOVAH shall rest on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the weak among them in that day will be as David, and the house of David as God, as The Angel of LORD JEHOVAH who is in their presence 9And it will be in that day, I shall seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem 10And I shall pour on him of the house of David and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem The Spirit of cherishing and of loves and they shall gaze upon me, The One whom they pierced through, and they shall wail over him like they wail over an only child, and they shall be broken over him as they are broken over a first born 11In that day the mourning will increase in Jerusalem as the mourning of the son of Amon that was in the plain of Megiddo 12And the land, each of the families shall mourn as one, the family of the house of David as one, and their wives as one, the family of the house of Nathan as one, and their wives as one 13The family of the house of Levi as one, and their wives as one, the family of the house of Shemun as one, and their wives as one 14All the families that are left will mourn, the tribes, the families as one, and their wives as one The Peshitta Holy Bible Translated Translated by Glenn David Bauscher Glenn David Bauscher Lulu Publishing Copyright © 2018 Lulu Publishing 3rd edition Copyright © 2019 |
