And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. Behold I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege against Judah and against Jerusalem And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people; all that burden themselves with it, shall be rent in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered toge-. ther against it. 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. 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. 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.
