Zechariah 6:12-15

12Then say to him, ‘The Lord of armies says this: “Behold, there is a Man whose name is 1 2Branch, for He will 3 4branch out from where He is; and He will 5build the temple of the Lord.

13Yes, it is He who will build the temple of the Lord, and He who will 6bear the majesty and sit and 7rule on His throne. So He will be a 8priest on His throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two 9offices.”’

14Now the 10crown will become a reminder in the temple of the Lord to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and 11Hen the son of Zephaniah.

15 12Those who are far away will come and 13build the temple of the Lord.” Then you will 14know that the Lord of armies has sent me to you. And it will take place if you completely 15obey 16the Lord your God.
