1
In the fourth
year
of King
Darius,
the word
of the LORD
came
to Zechariah
on the fourth
day of the ninth
month,
which is Chislev.
2
Now the town of Bethel
had sent
Sharezer
and Regemmelech
and their men
to seek the favor
of the LORD,
3
speaking
to the priests
who
belong to the house
of the LORD
of hosts,
and to the prophets,
saying,
"Shall I weep
in the fifth
month
and abstain,
as I have done
these
many
years?"
4
Then 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 these
seventy
years,
was it actually
for Me that
you fasted
?
6
'
When
you eat
and drink,
do you not eat
for yourselves and do you not drink
for yourselves?
7
Are not these the words
which
the LORD
proclaimed
by the former
prophets,
when Jerusalem
was inhabited
and prosperous
along with its cities
around
it, and the Negev
and the foothills
were inhabited?'"
8
Then the word
of the LORD
came
to Zechariah
saying,
9
"Thus
has the LORD
of hosts
said,
'
Dispense
true
justice
and practice
kindness
and compassion
each
to his brother;
10
and do not oppress
the widow
or the orphan,
the stranger
or the poor;
and do not devise
evil
in your hearts
against one
another.'
11
"But they refused
to pay attention
and turned
a stubborn
shoulder
and stopped
their ears
from hearing.
12
"They made
their hearts
like flint
so
that they could not hear
the law
and the words
which
the LORD
of hosts
had sent
by His Spirit
through
the former
prophets;
therefore great
wrath
came
from
the LORD
of hosts
.
13
"And just
as He called
and they would not listen,
so
they called
and I would not listen,"
says
the LORD
of hosts;
14
"but I scattered them with a storm wind
among
all
the nations
whom
they have not known.
Thus the
land
is desolated
behind
them so that no
one went
back
and forth,
for they made
the pleasant
land
desolate."
