Zechariah 6:9-15

9The 1word of the Lord also came to me, saying,

10“2Take an offering from the exiles, from Heldai, Tobijah and Jedaiah; and you go the same day and enter the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have arrived from Babylon.

11Take silver and gold, make an ornate 3crown and set it on the head of 4Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest.

12Then say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, “Behold, a man whose name is 56Branch, for He will 78branch out from where He is; and He will 9build the temple of the Lord.

13Yes, it is He who will build the temple of the Lord, and He who will 10bear the honor and sit and 11rule on His throne. Thus, He will be a 12priest on His throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two 13offices.”’

14Now the 14crown will become a reminder in the temple of the Lord to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah and 15Hen the son of Zephaniah.

1516Those who are far off will come and 17build the temple of the Lord.” Then you will 18know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you. And it will take place if you completely 19obey the Lord your God.
