In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, son of Iddo, saying,
|
| 2 |
“The LORD was very angry with your fathers.
|
| 3 |
Therefore say to them, Thus declares the LORD of hosts: Return to me, says the LORD of hosts, and I will return to you, says the LORD of hosts.
|
| 4 |
Do not be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets cried out, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, Return from your evil ways and from your evil deeds.' But they did not hear or pay attention to me, declares the LORD.
|
| 5 |
Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever?
|
| 6 |
But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers? So they repented and said, As the LORD of hosts purposed to deal with us for our ways and deeds, so has he dealt with us.“
|
| 7 |
On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, which is the month of Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, son of Iddo, saying,
|
| 8 |
“I saw in the night, and behold, a man riding on a red horse! He was standing among the myrtle trees in the glen, and behind him were red, sorrel, and white horses.
|
| 9 |
Then I said, 'What are these, my lord?' The angel who talked with me said to me, 'I will show you what they are.'
|
| 10 |
So the man who was standing among the myrtle trees answered, 'These are they whom the LORD has sent to patrol the earth.'
|
| 11 |
And they answered the angel of the LORD who was standing among the myrtle trees, and said, 'We have patrolled the earth, and behold, all the earth remains at rest.'
|
| 12 |
Then the angel of the LORD said, 'O LORD of hosts, how long will you have no mercy on Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, against which you have been angry these seventy years?'
|
| 13 |
And the LORD answered gracious and comforting words to the angel who talked with me.
|
| 14 |
So the angel who talked with me said to me, 'Cry out, Thus says the LORD of hosts: I am exceedingly jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion.
|
| 15 |
And I am exceedingly angry with the nations that are at ease; for while I was angry but a little, they furthered the disaster.
|
| 16 |
Therefore, thus says the LORD, I have returned to Jerusalem with mercy; my house shall be built in it, declares the LORD of hosts, and the measuring line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.
|
| 17 |
Cry out again, Thus says the LORD of hosts: My cities shall again overflow with prosperity, and the LORD will again comfort Zion and again choose Jerusalem.'“
|
| 18 |
And I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold, four horns!
|
| 19 |
And I said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these?” And he said to me, “These are the horns that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”
|
| 20 |
Then the LORD showed me four craftsmen.
|
| 21 |
And I said, “What are these coming to do?” He said, “These are the horns that scattered Judah, so that no one raised his head. And these have come to terrify them, to cast down the horns of the nations who lifted up their horns against the land of Judah to scatter it.”

In the eighth month of the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Zechariah son of Berekiah, the son of Iddo:
|
| 2 |
“The LORD was very angry with your forefathers.
|
| 3 |
Therefore tell the people: This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'Return to me,' declares the LORD Almighty, 'and I will return to you,' says the LORD Almighty.
|
| 4 |
Do not be like your forefathers, to whom the earlier prophets proclaimed: This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'Turn from your evil ways and your evil practices.' But they would not listen or pay attention to me, declares the LORD.
|
| 5 |
Where are your forefathers now? And the prophets, do they live forever?
|
| 6 |
But did not my words and my decrees, which I commanded my servants the prophets, overtake your forefathers? “Then they repented and said, 'The LORD Almighty has done to us what our ways and practices deserve, just as he determined to do.'” The Man Among the Myrtle Trees
|
| 7 |
On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, the month of Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Zechariah son of Berekiah, the son of Iddo.
|
| 8 |
During the night I had a vision-and there before me was a man riding a red horse! He was standing among the myrtle trees in a ravine. Behind him were red, brown and white horses.
|
| 9 |
I asked, “What are these, my lord?” The angel who was talking with me answered, “I will show you what they are.”
|
| 10 |
Then the man standing among the myrtle trees explained, “They are the ones the LORD has sent to go throughout the earth.”
|
| 11 |
And they reported to the angel of the LORD, who was standing among the myrtle trees, “We have gone throughout the earth and found the whole world at rest and in peace.”
|
| 12 |
Then the angel of the LORD said, “LORD Almighty, how long will you withhold mercy from Jerusalem and from the towns of Judah, which you have been angry with these seventy years?”
|
| 13 |
So the LORD spoke kind and comforting words to the angel who talked with me.
|
| 14 |
Then the angel who was speaking to me said, “Proclaim this word: This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'I am very jealous for Jerusalem and Zion,
|
| 15 |
but I am very angry with the nations that feel secure. I was only a little angry, but they added to the calamity.'
|
| 16 |
“Therefore, this is what the LORD says: 'I will return to Jerusalem with mercy, and there my house will be rebuilt. And the measuring line will be stretched out over Jerusalem,' declares the LORD Almighty.
|
| 17 |
“Proclaim further: This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'My towns will again overflow with prosperity, and the LORD will again comfort Zion and choose Jerusalem.'”
|
| 18 |
Then I looked up-and there before me were four horns!
|
| 19 |
I asked the angel who was speaking to me, “What are these?” He answered me, “These are the horns that scattered Judah, Israel and Jerusalem.”
|
| 20 |
Then the LORD showed me four craftsmen.
|
| 21 |
I asked, “What are these coming to do?” He answered, “These are the horns that scattered Judah so that no one could raise his head, but the craftsmen have come to terrify them and throw down these horns of the nations who lifted up their horns against the land of Judah to scatter its people.”

In November of the second year of King Darius's reign, the LORD gave this message to the prophet Zechariah son of Berekiah and grandson of Iddo:
|
| 2 |
“I, the LORD, was very angry with your ancestors.
|
| 3 |
Therefore, say to the people, 'This is what the LORD of Heaven's Armies says: Return to me, and I will return to you, says the LORD of Heaven's Armies.'

| 4 |
Don't be like your ancestors who would not listen or pay attention when the earlier prophets said to them, 'This is what the LORD of Heaven's Armies says: Turn from your evil ways, and stop all your evil practices.'
|
| 5 |
“Where are your ancestors now? They and the prophets are long dead.
|
| 6 |
But everything I said through my servants the prophets happened to your ancestors, just as I said. As a result, they repented and said, 'We have received what we deserved from the LORD of Heaven's Armies. He has done what he said he would do.'“
|
| 7 |
Three months later, on February 15, the LORD sent another message to the prophet Zechariah son of Berekiah and grandson of Iddo.
|
| 8 |
In a vision during the night, I saw a man sitting on a red horse that was standing among some myrtle trees in a small valley. Behind him were riders on red, brown, and white horses.
|
| 9 |
I asked the angel who was talking with me, “My lord, what do these horses mean?” “I will show you,” the angel replied.
|
| 10 |
The rider standing among the myrtle trees then explained, “They are the ones the LORD has sent out to patrol the earth.”
|
| 11 |
Then the other riders reported to the angel of the LORD, who was standing among the myrtle trees, “We have been patrolling the earth, and the whole earth is at peace.”
|
| 12 |
Upon hearing this, the angel of the LORD prayed this prayer: “O LORD of Heaven's Armies, for seventy years now you have been angry with Jerusalem and the towns of Judah. How long until you again show mercy to them?”
|
| 13 |
And the LORD spoke kind and comforting words to the angel who talked with me.
|
| 14 |
Then the angel said to me, “Shout this message for all to hear: 'This is what the LORD of Heaven's Armies says: My love for Jerusalem and Mount Zion is passionate and strong.
|
| 15 |
But I am very angry with the other nations that are now enjoying peace and security. I was only a little angry with my people, but the nations inflicted harm on them far beyond my intentions.
|
| 16 |
“ 'Therefore, this is what the LORD says: I have returned to show mercy to Jerusalem. My Temple will be rebuilt, says the LORD of Heaven's Armies, and measurements will be taken for the reconstruction of Jerusalem. '
|
| 17 |
“Say this also: 'This is what the LORD of Heaven's Armies says: The towns of Israel will again overflow with prosperity, and the LORD will again comfort Zion and choose Jerusalem as his own.'”
|
| 18 |
Then I looked up and saw four animal horns.
|
| 19 |
“What are these?” I asked the angel who was talking with me.He replied, “These horns represent the nations that scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”
|
| 20 |
Then the LORD showed me four blacksmiths.
|
| 21 |
“What are these men coming to do?” I asked.The angel replied, “These four horns– these nations– scattered and humbled Judah. Now these blacksmiths have come to terrify those nations and throw them down and destroy them.”
