1 In the eighth month, in the second year to Darius, was the word of Jehovah to Zechariah son of Barachiah, son of Iddo the prophet, saying, 2 Jehovah was angry with our fathers with anger. 3 And thou saidst to them, Thus said Jehovah of armies: Turn back to me, says Jehovah of armies, and I will turn back to you, said Jehovah of armies. 4 Ye shall not be as your fathers which the former prophets called to them, saying, Thus, said Jehovah of armies: Turn back now from your evil ways and your evil doings: and they heard not, and they attended not to me, says Jehovah. 5 Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, shall they live forever? 6 But the words and the laws which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not reach your fathers? and they will turn back and say, As Jehovah of armies purposed to do to us according to our ways and according to our doings, so he did with us. 7 In the twenty and fourth day to the eleventh month, this the month Sabat, in the second year to Darius, was the word of Jehovah to Zechariah, son of Barachiah, son of Iddo the prophet, saying, 8 I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood between the myrtles which were in shady place; and after him red horses, bay, and white. 9 And saying, What these, my lord? And the messenger speaking with me, will say to me, I will cause thee to see what these are? 10 And the man standing between the myrtles will answer and say, These which Jehovah sent to go about in the earth. 11 And they will answer the messenger of Jehovah standing between the myrtles, and they will say, We walked about in the earth, and behold, all the earth sat and rested. 12 And the messenger of Jehovah will answer and say, O Jehovah of armies, how long wilt thou not compassionate Jerusalem and the cities of Judah with whom thou wert very angry this seventy years? 13 And Jehovah will answer the messenger speaking with me good words, consoling words. 14 And the messenger speaking with me, will say to me, Call thou, saying, Thus said Jehovah of armies; I was jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with great jealousy. 15 And I am angry with great anger against the nations living in quiet: for I was angry a little and they helped for evil. 16 For this, thus said Jehovah: I turned back to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, says Jehovah of armies, and a cord shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem. 17 Yet call, say, Thus said Jehovah of armies: My cities shall be spread abroad for good; and Jehovah yet comforted Zion and yet chose Jerusalem. 18 And I shall lift up mine eyes, and see, and behold, four horns. 19 And saying to the messenger speaking with me, What these? And he will say to me, These the horns which scattered Judah, and Israel, and Jerusalem. 20 And Jehovah caused me to see four artificers. 21 And saying, What came these to do? And he will say, saying, These the horns which scattered Judah, so that a man lifted not up his head: and these will come to terrify them, to cast out the horns of the nations lifting up the horn to the land of Judah to scatter it.
