And it came to pass in the fourthH702 yearH8141 of kingH4428 DariusH1867, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto ZechariahH2148 in the fourthH702 day of the ninthH8671 monthH2320, even in ChisleuH3691;
When they had sentH7971 unto the houseH1004 of GodH410 SherezerH8272 and RegemmelechH7278, and their menH582, to prayH2470 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, {pray…: Heb. intreat the face of}
And to speakH559 unto the priestsH3548 which were in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and to the prophetsH5030, sayingH559, Should I weepH1058 in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, separatingH5144 myself, as I have doneH6213 these so many yearsH8141?
Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 unto me, sayingH559,
SpeakH559 unto all the peopleH5971 of the landH776, and to the priestsH3548, sayingH559, When ye fastedH6684 and mournedH5594 in the fifthH2549 and seventhH7637 month, even those seventyH7657 yearsH8141, did ye at allH6684 fastH6684 unto me, even to me?
And when ye did eatH398, and when ye did drinkH8354, did not ye eatH398 for yourselves, and drinkH8354 for yourselves? {did not ye: or, be not ye they that}
Should ye not hear the wordsH1697 which the LORDH3068 hath criedH7121 byH3027 the formerH7223 prophetsH5030, when JerusalemH3389 was inhabitedH3427 and in prosperityH7961, and the citiesH5892 thereof round about herH5439, when men inhabitedH3427 the southH5045 and the plainH8219? {Should…: or, Are not these the words} {by: Heb. by the hand of}
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto ZechariahH2148, sayingH559,
Thus speakethH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, sayingH559, ExecuteH8199 trueH571 judgmentH4941, and shewH6213 mercyH2617 and compassionsH7356 every manH376 to his brotherH251: {Execute…: Heb. Judge judgment of truth}
And oppressH6231 not the widowH490, nor the fatherlessH3490, the strangerH1616, nor the poorH6041; and let none of you imagineH2803 evilH7451 againstH376 his brotherH251 in your heartH3824.
But they refusedH3985 to hearkenH7181, and pulled awayH5414+H5637 the shoulderH3802, and stoppedH3513 their earsH241, that they should not hearH8085. {pulled…: Heb. they gave a backsliding shoulder} {stopped: Heb. made heavy}
Yea, they madeH7760 their heartsH3820 as an adamant stoneH8068, lest they should hearH8085 the lawH8451, and the wordsH1697 which the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 hath sentH7971 in his spiritH7307 byH3027 the formerH7223 prophetsH5030: therefore came a greatH1419 wrathH7110 from the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. {by: Heb. by the hand of}
Therefore it is come to pass, that as he criedH7121, and they would not hearH8085; so they criedH7121, and I would not hearH8085, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635:
But I scattered them with a whirlwindH5590 among all the nationsH1471 whom they knewH3045 not. Thus the landH776 was desolateH8074 afterH310 them, that no man passed throughH5674 nor returnedH7725: for they laidH7760 the pleasantH2532 landH776 desolateH8047. {pleasant…: Heb. land of desire}

HearH8085, O my peopleH5971, and I will testifyH5749 unto thee: O IsraelH3478, if thou wilt hearkenH8085 unto me;
There shall no strangeH2114 godH410 be in thee; neither shalt thou worshipH7812 any strangeH5236 godH410.
I am the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, which broughtH5927 thee out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714: open thy mouthH6310 wideH7337, and I will fillH4390 it.
But my peopleH5971 would not hearkenH8085 to my voiceH6963; and IsraelH3478 wouldH14 none of me.
So I gave them upH7971 unto their own hearts'H3820 lustH8307: and they walkedH3212 in their own counselsH4156. {unto…: or, to the hardness of their hearts, or, imagination}
Whoso stoppethH331 his earsH241 at the cryH2201 of the poorH1800, he also shall cryH7121 himself, but shall not be heardH6030.
Because I have calledH7121, and ye refusedH3985; I have stretched outH5186 my handH3027, and no man regardedH7181;
But ye have set at noughtH6544 all my counselH6098, and wouldH14 none of my reproofH8433:
I also will laughH7832 at your calamityH343; I will mockH3932 when your fearH6343 comethH935;
When your fearH6343 comethH935 as desolationH7722+H7584, and your destructionH343 comethH857 as a whirlwindH5492; when distressH6869 and anguishH6695 comethH935 upon you.
Then shall they callH7121 upon me, but I will not answerH6030; they shall seek me earlyH7836, but they shall not findH4672 me:
He that turneth awayH5493 his earH241 from hearingH8085 the lawH8451, even his prayerH8605 shall be abominationH8441.
Wherefore, when I cameH935, was there no manH376? when I calledH7121, was there none to answerH6030? Is my handH3027 shortenedH7114 at allH7114, that it cannot redeemH6304? or have I no powerH3581 to deliverH5337? behold, at my rebukeH1606 I dry upH2717 the seaH3220, I makeH7760 the riversH5104 a wildernessH4057: their fishH1710 stinkethH887, because there is no waterH4325, and diethH4191 for thirstH6772.
And when ye spread forthH6566 your handsH3709, I will hideH5956 mine eyesH5869 from you: yea, when ye make manyH7235 prayersH8605, I will not hearH8085: your handsH3027 are fullH4390 of bloodH1818. {make…: Heb. multiply prayer} {blood: Heb. bloods}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, StandH5975 ye in the waysH1870, and seeH7200, and askH7592 for the oldH5769 pathsH5410, where is the goodH2896 wayH1870, and walkH3212 therein, and ye shall findH4672 restH4771 for your soulsH5315. But they saidH559, We will not walkH3212 therein.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon them, which they shall not be ableH3201 to escapeH3318; and though they shall cryH2199 unto me, I will not hearkenH8085 unto them. {to escape: Heb. to go forth of}
Also I setH6965 watchmenH6822 over you, saying, HearkenH7181 to the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782. But they saidH559, We will not hearkenH7181.
When they fastH6684, I will not hearH8085 their cryH7440; and when they offerH5927 burnt offeringH5930 and an oblationH4503, I will not acceptH7521 them: but I will consumeH3615 them by the swordH2719, and by the famineH7458, and by the pestilenceH1698.
O JerusalemG2419, JerusalemG2419, whichG3588 killestG615 the prophetsG4396, andG2532 stonestG3036 them that are sentG649 untoG4314 theeG846; how oftenG4212 wouldG2309 I have gatheredG1996 thyG4675 childrenG5043 togetherG1996, asG3739+G5158 a henG3733 doth gather herG1438 broodG3555 underG5259 her wingsG4420, andG2532 ye wouldG2309 notG3756!
SonH1121 of manH120, these menH582 have set upH5927 their idolsH1544 in their heartH3820, and putH5414 the stumblingblockH4383 of their iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 their faceH6440: should I be enquiredH1875 of at allH1875 by them?
BeholdG2400, yourG5216 houseG3624 is leftG863 unto youG5213 desolateG2048: andG1161 verilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213+G3754, Ye shallG1492 notG3364 seeG1492 meG3165, untilG2193+G302 the time comeG2240 whenG3753 ye shall sayG2036, BlessedG2127 is he that comethG2064 inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962.
SonH1121 of manH120, speakH1696 unto the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Are ye comeH935 to enquireH1875 of me? As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, I will not be enquiredH1875 of by you.
SayingG3004, IfG3754+G1487 thou hadst knownG1097, evenG2532 thouG4771, at leastG2534 inG1722 thisG5026 thyG4675 dayG2250, the thingsG3588 which belong untoG4314 thyG4675 peaceG1515! butG1161 nowG3568 they are hidG2928 fromG575 thineG4675 eyesG3788.
ForG3754 the daysG2250 shall comeG2240 uponG1909 theeG4571, thatG2532 thineG4675 enemiesG2190 shall castG4016 a trenchG5482 aboutG4016 theeG4671, andG2532 compassG4033 theeG4571 roundG4033, andG2532 keepG4912 theeG4571 inG4912 on every sideG3840,
AndG2532 shall layG1474 theeG4571 even with the groundG1474, andG2532 thyG4675 childrenG5043 withinG1722 theeG4671; andG2532 they shallG863 notG3756 leaveG863 inG1722 theeG4671 one stoneG3037 uponG1909 anotherG3037; becauseG473+G3739 thou knewestG1097 notG3756 the timeG2540 of thyG4675 visitationG1984.
Then shall they cryH2199 unto the LORDH3068, but he will not hearH6030 them: he will even hideH5641 his faceH6440 from them at that timeH6256, as they have behaved themselves illH7489 in their doingsH4611.
AfterwardG1161+G5305 cameG2064 alsoG2532 the otherG3062 virginsG3933, sayingG3004, LordG2962, LordG2962, openG455 to usG2254.
ButG1161 he answeredG611 and saidG2036, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, I knowG1492 youG5209 notG3756.
When onceG575+G3739+G302 the master of the houseG3617 is risen upG1453, andG2532 hath shutG608 to the doorG2374, andG2532 ye beginG756 to standG2476 withoutG1854, andG2532 to knockG2925 at the doorG2374, sayingG3004, LordG2962, LordG2962, openG455 unto usG2254; andG2532 he shall answerG611 and sayG2046 unto youG5213, I knowG1492 youG5209 notG3756 whenceG4159 ye areG2075:
