Behold, I am about to make Jerusalem a cup of
staggering to all the surrounding peoples. The
siege of Jerusalem will also be against Judah. 3
On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone
for all the peoples. All who lift it will surely
hurt themselves. And all the nations of the earth
will gather against it.   And on that day I will
seek to destroy all the nations that come against
Jerusalem. 10 And I will pour out on the house
of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a
spirit of grace and pleas for mercy, so that,
when they look on me, on him whom they have
pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns
for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as
one weeps over a firstborn. Zechariah 122-3,
