      Book 38 Zechariah

      38:001:001 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,

      38:001:002 The LORD hath been sore displeased with your fathers.

      38:001:003 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.

      38:001:004 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.

      38:001:005 Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they live for ever?

      38:001:006 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.

      38:001:007 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,

      38:001:008 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.

      38:001:009 Then said I, O my lord, what are these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will shew thee what these be.

      38:001:010 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.

      38:001:011 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.

      38:001:012 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?

      38:001:013 And the LORD answered the angel that talked with me with good words and comfortable words.

      38:001:014 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.

      38:001:015 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.

      38:001:016 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.

      38:001:017 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.

      38:001:018 Then lifted I up mine eyes, and saw, and behold four horns.

      38:001:019 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.

      38:001:020 And the LORD shewed me four carpenters.

      38:001:021 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.

      38:002:001 I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand.

      38:002:002 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.

      38:002:003 And, behold, the angel that talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,

      38:002:004 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:

      38:002:005 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.

      38:002:006 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.

      38:002:007 Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon.

      38:002:008 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.

      38:002:009 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.

      38:002:010 Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD.

      38:002:011 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.

      38:002:012 And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land, and shall choose Jerusalem again.

      38:002:013 Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for he is raised up out of his holy habitation.

      38:003:001 And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.

      38:003:002 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?

      38:003:003 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.

      38:003:004 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.

      38:003:005 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.

      38:003:006 And the angel of the LORD protested unto Joshua, saying,

      38:003:007 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.

      38:003:008 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.

      38:003:009 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.

      38:003:010 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.

      38:004:001 And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.

      38:004:002 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:

      38:004:003 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.

      38:004:004 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?

      38:004:005 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.

      38:004:006 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is
