2Behold, I will make Jerusalem as trembling doorposts to all the nations round about, and in Judea there shall be a siege against Jerusalem.

3And it shall come to pass in that day that I will make Jerusalem a trodden stone to all the nations: everyone that tramples on it shall utterly mock at it, and all the nations of the earth shall be gathered together against it.

— Zechariah 12:4 —

5And the captains of thousands of Judah shall say in their hearts, We shall find for ourselves the inhabitants of Jerusalem in the Lord Almighty their God.

6In that day I will make the captains of thousands of Judah as a firebrand among wood, and as a torch of fire in stubble; and they shall devour on the right hand and on the left all the nations round about: and Jerusalem shall dwell again by herself, even in Jerusalem.
