Book 25 : NEVIIM - TREISAR - ZECHARIAH - Chapter 007

07:001

And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of HaShem came unto Zechariah in the fourth day of the ninth month, even in Chislev

07:002

When Bethel-sarezer, and Regem-melech and his men, had sent to entreat the favour of HaShem

07:003

and to speak unto the priests of the house of HaShem of hosts, and to the prophets, saying: 'Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years?

07:004

Then came the word of HaShem of hosts unto me, saying

07:005

'Speak unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying: When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and in the seventh month, even these seventy years, did ye at all fast unto Me, even to Me

07:006

And when ye eat, and when ye did drink, are ye not they that eat, and they that drink

07:007

Should ye not hearken to the words which HaShem hath proclaimed by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and in prosperity, and the cities thereof round about her, and the South and the Lowland were inhabited?

07:008

And the word of HaShem came unto Zechariah, saying

07:009

'Thus hath HaShem of hosts spoken, saying: Execute true judgment, and show mercy and compassion every man to his brother

07:010

and oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you devise evil against his brother in your heart

07:011

But they refused to attend, and turned a stubborn shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they might not hear

07:012

Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which HaShem of hosts had sent by His spirit by the hand of the former prophets; therefore came there great wrath from HaShem of hosts

07:013

And it came to pass that, as He called, and they would not hear; so they shall call, and I will not hear, said HaShem of hosts

07:014

but I will scatter them with a whirlwind among all the nations whom they have not known. Thus the land was desolate after them, so that no man passed through nor returned; for they laid the pleasant land desolate.
