Zechariah12:5
5 And the governours of Judah shall say in their heart , The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God .
The Counsellors and Rulers at home, and the Leaders and Captains abroad, the Maccabees and others every one for himself
Shall think, believe, and reckon upon it, and be hearty in it.
Though but few, and poor, yet they shall be my strength, and these shall be ready and forward to go forth against their Enemies, with an handful of men to encounter mighty and numerous Armies, because their strength, and help lyeth in the name of the Lord of hosts.
Not in their own Power but in the power of the Almighty Sovereign Lord of all who can save by few as by many.
And because their God he will give them victory.
Marginal references: Or, there is strength to me and to the inhabitants, &c.
