OET interlinear ZEC 12:2

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-quotations

הִנֵּ֣ה

see/lo/see!

This is the beginning of what Yahweh said. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could mark that this is a direct quote of Yahweh.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

סַף־רַ֛עַל לְ⁠כָל־הָ⁠עַמִּ֖ים סָבִ֑יב

cup_of reeling to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples surrounding

Here Yahweh is speaking of Jerusalem as if it were a cup of staggering, that is, a cup of wine that would make the surrounding nations drunk so that they reel and cannot stand. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [a source of helpless reeling for all of the peoples all around]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠גַ֧ם עַל־יְהוּדָ֛ה יִֽהְיֶ֥ה בַ⁠מָּצ֖וֹר עַל־יְרוּשָׁלִָֽם

This could mean: (1) Judah and Jerusalem are besieged. Alternate translation: [And just as Jerusalem is besieged, so is all of Judah.] (2) Judah is going to besiege Jerusalem. Alternate translation: [Judah joins the nations to besiege Jerusalem.]
