Zechariah :: MINOR PROPHETS :: Book of Zechariah

YHVH - Sword

In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah,  the son of Iddo the prophet, saying ,

Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the LORD

 of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the LORD of hosts.

Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former prophets have cried , saying , Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings: but they did not hear , nor hearken unto me, saith the LORD.

But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers? and they returned and said , Like as the LORD of hosts thought to do unto us, according to our ways, 

and according to our doings, so hath he dealt with us.

Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh * month, which is the month Sebat, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah,the son of Iddo the prophet, saying ,

I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, 

and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in the bottom; and behind him were there red horses, speckled,b and white.

And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered and said , These are they whom the LORD 

hath sent to walk to and fro through the earth.

And they answered the angel of the LORD that stood among the myrtle trees, and said , We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest .

Then the angel of the LORD answered and said, O LORD of hosts, 

how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on  the cities of Judah, 

against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years?

So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying 

Thus saith the LORD of hosts; 

I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.

And I am very sore displeased with the heathen that are at ease: 

for I was but a little displeased , and they helped forward the affliction.

Therefore thus saith the LORD; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, 

saith the LORD of hosts, and a line * shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.

Cry yet, saying , Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities through prosperityc shall yet be spread abroad ; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.

And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of the LORD came unto Zechariah in the fourth day of the ninth month, even in Chisleu;

And to speak unto the priests which were in the house of the LORD of hosts, and to the prophets, saying , Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years?

Speak unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying , 

When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and

seventh month, even those seventy years, did ye at all fast unto me, even to me?

And when ye did eat , and when ye did drink , did not ye eat for yourselves, and drink for yourselves?

Should ye not hear the words which the LORD hath cried by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and in prosperity, and the cities thereof round about her, when men inhabited the south and the plain?

And the word of the LORD came unto Zechariah, saying ,

Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying , Executeb true judgment, and shew mercy and compassions every man to his brother:

And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.

But they refused to hearken , and pulled away * the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear .

Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD of hosts hath sent in his spirit byc the former prophets:

 therefore came a great wrath from the LORD of hosts.

Therefore it is come to pass, that as he cried , and they would not hear ; so they cried , and I would not hear , saith the LORD of hosts:

But I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations whom they knew not. Thus the land was desolate after them, that no man passed through nor returned : 

for they laid the pleasantd land desolate.

He would return to them :: His word will be fulfilled
