The revelation of the LORD’s word concerning Israel, that Jerusalem will be made a cup of reeling
예루살렘으로 혼취케 하는 잔이 되게 하리라는 이스라엘에 관한 여호와의 말씀의 경고
Zechariah 12:1–9: the heading reads, “A revelation of the LORD’s word concerning Israel”, and the LORD, who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him, says, “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of reeling to all the surrounding peoples, and it will also be on Judah in the siege against Jerusalem. It will happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples. All who burden themselves with it will be severely wounded, and all the nations of the earth will be gathered together against it. In that day,” says the LORD, “I will strike every horse with terror and his rider with madness. I will open my eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness. The chieftains of Judah will say in their heart, ‘The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in the LORD of Armies their God.’ In that day I will make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire among wood, and like a flaming torch among sheaves. They will devour all the surrounding peoples on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem will yet again dwell in their own place, even in Jerusalem. The LORD also will save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of David’s house and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem not be magnified above Judah. In that day the LORD will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem. He who is feeble among them at that day will be like David, and David’s house will be like God, like the LORD’s angel before them. It will happen in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.” The heading of 12:1 names no prophet by whom or to whom the word comes. The Korean Revised Version sets 여호와가 말하노라 (says the LORD) at the head of 12:4; gives the chieftains of Judah other words at 12:5, 예루살렘 거민이 그들의 하나님 만군의 여호와로 말미암아 힘을 얻었다 (the inhabitants of Jerusalem have gained strength through the LORD of Armies their God), where WEB reads “The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in the LORD of Armies their God”; and reads at 12:6 예루살렘 사람은 (the people of Jerusalem), where WEB reads “Jerusalem”.
