Zechariah 1:13-16

13The Lord answered the 1angel who was speaking with me with 2gracious words, 3comforting words.

14So the angel who was speaking with me said to me, “4Proclaim, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, “I am 5exceedingly jealous for Jerusalem and Zion.

15But I am very 6angry with the nations who are 7at ease; for while I was only a little angry, they 89furthered the disaster.”

16Therefore thus says the Lord, “I will 10return to Jerusalem with compassion; My 11house will be built in it,” declares the Lord of hosts, “and a measuring 12line will be stretched over Jerusalem.”’
