ZEC-1:1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came
the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the
son of Iddo the prophet, saying,
ZEC-1:2 The LORD hath been sore displeased with your fathers.
ZEC-1:3 Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD of
hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will turn
unto you, saith the LORD of hosts.
ZEC-1:4 Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former
prophets have cried, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn
ye now from your evil ways, and [from] your evil doings:but they
did not hear, nor hearken unto me, saith the LORD.
ZEC-1:5 Your fathers, where [are] they? and the prophets, do
they live for ever?
ZEC-1:6 But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my
servants the prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers?
and they returned and said, Like as the LORD of hosts thought to
do unto us, according to our ways, and according to our doings,
so hath he dealt with us.
ZEC-1:7 Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month,
which [is] the month Sebat, in the second year of Darius, came
the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the
son of Iddo the prophet, saying,
ZEC-1:8 I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red
horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that [were] in the
bottom; and behind him [were there] red horses, speckled, and
white.
ZEC-1:9 Then said I, O my lord, what [are] these? And the angel
that talked with me said unto me, I will show thee what these
[be].
ZEC-1:10 And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered
and said, These [are they] whom the LORD hath sent to walk to
and fro through the earth.
ZEC-1:11 And they answered the angel of the LORD that stood
among the myrtle trees, and said, We have walked to and fro
through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and
is at rest.
ZEC-1:12 Then the angel of the LORD answered and said, O LORD
of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on
the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation
these threescore and ten years?
ZEC-1:13 And the LORD answered the angel that talked with me
[with] good words [and] comfortable words.
ZEC-1:14 So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry
thou, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I am jealous for
Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
ZEC-1:15 And I am very sore displeased with the heathen [that
are] at ease:for I was but a little displeased, and they helped
forward the affliction.
ZEC-1:16 Therefore thus saith the LORD; I am returned to
Jerusalem with mercies:my house shall be built in it, saith the
LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon
Jerusalem.
ZEC-1:17 Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My
cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the
LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
ZEC-1:18 Then lifted I up mine eyes, and saw, and behold four
horns.
ZEC-1:19 And I said unto the angel that talked with me, What
[be] these? And he answered me, These [are] the horns which have
scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
ZEC-1:20 And the LORD showed me four carpenters.
ZEC-1:21 Then said I, What come these to do? And he spake,
saying, These [are] the horns which have scattered Judah, so
that no man did lift up his head:but these are come to fray them,
to cast out the horns of the Gentiles, which lifted up [their]
horn over the land of Judah to scatter it.
*ZEC-2:1 I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold a
man with a measuring line in his hand.
ZEC-2:2 Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me,
To measure Jerusalem, to see what [is] the breadth thereof, and
what [is] the length thereof.
ZEC-2:3 And, behold, the angel that talked with me went forth,
and another angel went out to meet him,
ZEC-2:4 And said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying,
Jerusalem shall be inhabited [as] towns without walls for the
multitude of men and cattle therein:
ZEC-2:5 For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire
round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.
ZEC-2:6 Ho, ho, [come forth], and flee from the land of the
north, saith the LORD:for I have spread you abroad as the four
winds of the heaven, saith the LORD.
ZEC-2:7 Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest [with] the
daughter of Babylon.
ZEC-2:8 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath
he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you:for he that
toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.
ZEC-2:9 For, behold, I will shake mine hand upon them, and they
shall be a spoil to their servants:and ye shall know that the
LORD of hosts hath sent me.
ZEC-2:10 Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion:for, lo, I come,
and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD.
ZEC-2:11 And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that
day, and shall be my people:and I will dwell in the midst of
thee, and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me
unto thee.
ZEC-2:12 And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the
holy land, and shall choose Jerusalem again.
ZEC-2:13 Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD:for he is
raised up out of his holy habitation.
*ZEC-3:1 And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing
before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right
hand to resist him.
ZEC-3:2 And the LORD said unto Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O
Satan; even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee:[is]
not this a brand plucked out of the fire?
ZEC-3:3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood
before the angel.
ZEC-3:4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before
him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto
him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from
thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.
ZEC-3:5 And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So
they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with
garments. And the angel of the LORD stood by.
ZEC-3:6 And the angel of the LORD protested unto Joshua, saying,
ZEC-3:7 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my
ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also
judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give
thee places to walk among these that stand by.
ZEC-3:8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy
fellows that sit before thee:for they [are] men wondered at:for,
behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
ZEC-3:9 For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua;
upon one stone [shall be] seven eyes:behold, I will engrave the
graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the
iniquity of that land in one day.
ZEC-3:10 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call
every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.
*ZEC-4:1 And the angel that talked with me came again, and
waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep,
ZEC-4:2 And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have
looked, and behold a candlestick all [of] gold, with a bowl upon
the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to
the seven lamps, which [are] upon the top thereof:
ZEC-4:3 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right [side] of
the bowl, and the other upon the left [side] thereof.
ZEC-4:4 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with
me, saying, What [are] these, my lord?
ZEC-4:5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said
unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
ZEC-4:6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This [is]
the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor
by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.
ZEC-4:7 Who [art] thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel
[thou shalt become] a plain:and he shall bring forth the
headstone [thereof with] shoutings, [crying], Grace, grace unto
it.
ZEC-4:8 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
ZEC-4:9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of
this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know
that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you.
ZEC-4:10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for
they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of
Zerubbabel [with] those seven; they [are] the eyes of the LORD,
which run to and fro through the whole earth.
ZEC-4:11 Then answered I, and said unto him, What [are] these
two olive trees upon the right [side] of the candlestick and
upon the left [side] thereof?
ZEC-4:12 And I answered again, and said unto him, What [be
these] two olive branches which through the two golden pipes
empty the golden [oil] out of themselves?
ZEC-4:13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what
these [be]? And I said, No, my lord.
ZEC-4:14 Then said he, These [are] the two anointed ones, that
stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
*ZEC-5:1 Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked,
and behold a flying roll.
ZEC-5:2 And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I
see a flying roll; the length thereof [is] twenty cubits, and
the breadth thereof ten cubits.
ZEC-5:3 Then said he unto me, This [is] the curse that goeth
forth over the face of the whole earth:for every one that
stealeth shall be cut off [as] on this side according to it; and
every one that sweareth shall be cut off [as] on that side
according to it.
ZEC-5:4 I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it
shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of
him that sweareth falsely by my name:and it shall remain in the
midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof
and the stones thereof.
ZEC-5:5 Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said
unto me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what [is] this that
goeth forth.
ZEC-5:6 And I said, What [is] it? And he said, This [is] an
ephah that goeth forth. He said moreover, This [is] their
resemblance through all the earth.
ZEC-5:7 And, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead:and
