## Zechariah 12:7-10 in Context (Verses 4–13 KJV)
 
 [4 ](/kjv/zechariah/12/4) In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/zechariah/12/5) And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem *shall be* my strength in the LORD of hosts their God.*
 
 [6 ](/kjv/zechariah/12/6) ¶ In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, *even* in Jerusalem.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/zechariah/12/7) The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify *themselves* against Judah.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/zechariah/12/8) In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David *shall be* as God, as the angel of the LORD before them.*
 
 [9 ](/kjv/zechariah/12/9) ¶ And it shall come to pass in that day, *that* I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
 
 [10 ](/kjv/zechariah/12/10) And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for *his* only *son*, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for *his* firstborn.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/zechariah/12/11) In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/zechariah/12/12) And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;*
 
 [13 ](/kjv/zechariah/12/13) The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;*
 
[Zechariah 11](/kjv/zechariah/11) [Zechariah 13](/kjv/zechariah/13)
