TSK · Zechariah 12:1

The LORD God formed the man from the soil of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.

He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth on nothing.

He covers himself with light as if it were a garment. He stretches out the skies like a tent curtain,

to the one who used wisdom to make the heavens, for his loyal love endures,

The Lord is Incomparable Who has measured out the waters in the hollow of his hand, or carefully measured the sky, or carefully weighed the soil of the earth, or weighed the mountains in a balance, or the hills on scales?

This is what the true God, the LORD, says– the one who created the sky and stretched it out, the one who fashioned the earth and everything that lives on it, the one who gives breath to the people on it, and life to those who live on it:

I made the earth; I created the people who live on it. It was me– my hands stretched out the sky. I give orders to all the heavenly lights.

Yes, my hand founded the earth; my right hand spread out the sky. I summon them; they stand together.

This is what your Sovereign LORD, even your God who judges his people says:“Look, I have removed from your hand the cup of intoxicating wine, the goblet full of my anger. You will no longer have to drink it.

The LORD is the one who by his power made the earth. He is the one who by his wisdom established the world. And by his understanding he spread out the skies.

But all who destroyed you will be destroyed. All your enemies will go into exile. Those who plundered you will be plundered. I will cause those who pillaged you to be pillaged.

But the one who will rescue them is strong. His name is the LORD of Heaven’s Armies. He will strongly champion their cause. As a result he will bring peace and rest to the earth, but trouble and turmoil to the people who inhabit Babylonia.

נ(Nun) Your prophets saw visions for you that were worthless whitewash. They failed to expose your sin so as to restore your fortunes. They saw oracles for you that were worthless lies.

therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: Surely I have spoken in the fire of my zeal against the rest of the nations, and against all Edom, who with great joy and utter contempt have made my land their property and prey, because of its pasture.’

I will avenge their blood which I had not previously acquitted.It is the LORD who dwells in Zion!

The Coming of the True King This is an oracle, the LORD’s message concerning the land of Hadrach, with its focus on Damascus: The eyes of all humanity, especially of the tribes of Israel, are toward the LORD,

And,“You founded the earth in the beginning, Lord, and the heavens are the works of your hands.
