Zechariah 7:2-7

2Now they of Beth-el had sentH7971 SharezerH8272 and Regem-melech, and their menH376, to entreatH2470 the favor of Jehovah, 3and to speak unto the priestsH3548 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah of hostsH6635, and to the prophetsH5030, sayingH559, Should I weepH1058 in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, separating myself, as I have done these so many yearsH8141? 4Then came the wordH1697 of Jehovah of hostsH6635 unto me, sayingH559, 5Speak unto all the peopleH5971 of the landH776, and to the priestsH3548, sayingH559, When ye fastedH6684 and mournedH5594 in the fifthH2549 and in the seventhH7637 month, even these seventyH7657 yearsH8141, did ye at all fastH6684 unto me, even to me? 6And when ye eatH398, and when ye drinkH8354, do not ye eatH398 for yourselves, and drinkH8354 for yourselves? 7Should ye not hear the wordsH1697 which Jehovah cried by the formerH7223 prophetsH5030, when JerusalemH3389 wasH1961 inhabitedH3427 and in prosperity, and the citiesH5892 thereof roundH5439 about her, and the SouthH5045 and the lowland were inhabitedH3427?
