Zechariah 12:1-3

Living Bible

12 This is the fate of Israel, as pronounced by the Lord, who stretched out the heavens, laid the foundation of the earth, and formed the spirit of man within him:

² “I will make Jerusalem and Judah like a cup of poison to all the nearby nations that send their armies to surround Jerusalem. ³ Jerusalem will be a heavy stone burdening the world. And though all the nations of the earth unite in an attempt to move her, they will all be crushed.
