Zechariah 12:10

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

Then I will pour out on the house of David and on the people of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and prayer, and they will look on Me, the One they have pierced. They will mourn for Him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for Him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
I will pour on the house of David, and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they will look to me whom they have pierced; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for his only son, and will grieve bitterly for him, as one grieves for his firstborn.
World English Bible (WEB)
And I will pour{H8210}{(H8804)} upon the house{H1004} of David{H1732}, and upon the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Jerusalem{H3389}, the spirit{H7307} of grace{H2580} and of supplications{H8469}: and they shall look{H5027}{(H8689)} upon me whom they have pierced{H1856}{(H8804)}, and they shall mourn{H4553} for him, as one mourneth{H5594}{(H8804)} for his only{H3173} son, and shall be in bitterness{H4843}{(H8687)} for him, as one that is in bitterness{H4843}{(H8687)} for his firstborn{H1060}.
Strong's King James
I will pour out on the house of David, and on the inhabitants of Yerushalayim, the רוּחַ Ruach-Spirit of favourable grace, and of petitioning prayer. They will look on Me whom they have pierced through, and they will mourn for Him, as one ceremonially mourns for an only [son], and they will weep bitterly over Him, as bitterly weeping over a firstborn.

The F.O.G Paraphrase
And I have poured on the house of David, And on the inhabitant of Jerusalem, A spirit of grace and supplications, And they have looked unto Me whom they pierced, And they have mourned over it, Like a mourning over the only one, And they have been in bitterness for it, Like a bitterness over the first-born.
