Zechariah 7:8-14

8Then the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to ZechariahH2148, sayingH559,

9“ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 has saidH559: ‘1DispenseH8199 trueH571 justiceH4941 and practiceH6213 2kindnessH2617 and compassionH7356 eachH376 to his brotherH251;

10and 3do not oppressH6231 the widowH490 or the 4orphanH3490, the strangerH1616 or the poorH6041; and do 5not deviseH2803 evilH7463 in your heartsH3824 against oneH376 anotherH312.’

11But they 6refusedH3985 to payH7181 attentionH7181, and 78turnedH5414 a stubbornH5637 shoulderH3802 and 910pluggedH3513 their earsH241 from hearingH8085.

12They also madeH7760 their 11heartsH3820 as hard as 12a diamondH8068 13soH4480 thatH4480 they could notH4480 hearH8085 the LawH8451 and the 14wordsH1697 whichH834 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 had sentH7971 by His SpiritH7307 throughH3027 the 15formerH7223 prophetsH5030; therefore greatH1419 16wrathH7110 cameH1961 from the LordH3068 of armiesH6635.

13And justH3512 asH3512 17He calledH7121 and they would not listenH8085, soH3651 18they calledH7121 and I would not listenH8085,” saysH559 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635;

14“but I 1920scatteredH5590 them withH5590 aH5590 21stormH5590 windH5590 amongH5921 allH3605 the nationsH1471 whomH834 they did not knowH3045. So the landH776 wasH8074 22desolatedH8074 behindH310 them 23soH4480 thatH4480 24noH4480 one wentH5674 backH7725 and forthH5674, since they 25madeH7760 the pleasantH2532 landH776 desolateH8047.”
