When I read it I understand it to mean, Jesus will return in the clouds and every eye [that can see] will see him and they also which pierced him [not the Roman soldiers at the cross but the Jewish descendents of those Jews who accepted His blood to be put upon their hands when Pilate didn't want to crucify Christ]: and all the kindreds of the earth [all mankind that is alive on the earth] shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
