Zechariah 7:5-12
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?
8And the wordH1697 of Jehovah came unto ZechariahH2148, sayingH559, 9ThusH3541 hath Jehovah of hostsH6635 spoken, sayingH559, Execute true judgmentH4941, and show kindness and compassionH7356 every manH376 to his brotherH251; 10and oppressH6231 not the widowH490, nor the fatherlessH3490, the sojournerH1616, nor the poorH6041; and let none of you devise evilH7451 against his brotherH251 in your heartH3824. 11But they refusedH3985 to hearken, and pulled away the shoulderH3802, and stopped their earsH241, that they might not hearH8085. 12Yea, they madeH7760 their heartsH3820 as an adamant stone, lest they should hearH8085 the lawH8451, and the wordsH1697 which Jehovah of hostsH6635 had sentH7971 by his SpiritH7307 by the formerH7223 prophetsH5030: therefore there came greatH1419 wrathH7110 from Jehovah of hostsH6635.
