Zechariah 12:8-10

International Children’s Bible

⁸ At that time the Lord will protect the people in Jerusalem. Then even the weakest of them will be strong like David. And the family of David will be like God. They will be like an angel of the Lord leading the people. ⁹ At that time I will go to destroy all the nations that attack Jerusalem.

Crying for the One They Stabbed

¹⁰ “I will give David’s family and people in Jerusalem a spirit of kindness and mercy. They will look at me, the one they have stabbed. And they will cry like someone crying over the death of an only child. They will be as sad as someone who has lost a firstborn son.
