Zechariah 7:4-7

4Then the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying, 5“Say to all the people of the land and to the priests, ‘When you fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh months 1these 2seventy years, was it actually for 3Me that you fasted? 6When you eat and drink, 4do you not eat for yourselves and do you not drink for yourselves? 7Are not these the words which the Lord 5proclaimed by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and 67prosperous along with its cities around it, and the 89Negev and the 10foothills were inhabited?’”
