1:1 In
the
eight
moneth,
in
the
seconde
yeere
of
Darius,
came
the
word
of
the
Lord
vnto
Zechariah,
the
sonne
of
Barachiah,
the
sonne
of
Iddo
the
Prophet,
saying,
1:2 The
Lord
hath
bene
sore
displeased
with
your
fathers.
1:3 Therefore
say
thou
vnto
them,
Thus
saith
the
Lord
of
hostes;
Turne
ye
vnto
me,
saith
the
Lord
of
hostes,
and
I
will
turne
vnto
you,
saith
the
Lord
of
hostes.
1:4 Be
ye
not
as
your
fathers,
vnto
whom
the
former
Prophets
haue
cried,
saying,
Thus
saith
the
Lord
of
hostes,
Turne
ye
now
from
your
euill
wayes,
and
from
your
euil
doings:
but
they
did
not
heare,
nor
hearken
vnto
me,
saith
the
Lord.
1:5 Your
fathers,
where
are
they
and
the
Prophets,
doe
they
liue
for
euer
1:6 But
my
words
and
my
statutes,
which
I
commanded
my
seruants
the
Prophets,
did
they
not
take
holde
of
your
fathers
and
they
returned
and
saide;
Like
as
the
Lord
of
hostes
thought
to
doe
vnto
vs,
according
to
our
wayes,
and
according
to
our
doings,
so
hath
he
dealt
with
vs.
1:7 Upon
the
foure
and
twentieth
day
of
the
eleuenth
moneth,
which
is
the
moneth
Sebat,
in
the
second
yere
of
Darius,
came
the
word
of
the
Lord
vnto
Zechariah,
the
sonne
of
Barachiah,
the
sonne
of
Iddo
the
Prophet,
saying:
1:8 I
saw
by
night,
and
behold
a
man
riding
vpon
a
red
horse,
and
he
stood
among
the
mirtle
trees
that
were
in
the
bottome,
and
behinde
him
were
there
red
horses,
speckled
and
white.
1:9 Then
said
I,
O
my
Lord,
what
are
these
And
the
Angel
that
talked
with
me,
said
vnto
me,
I
wil
shew
thee
what
these
be.
1:10 And
the
man
that
stood
among
the
myrtle
trees
answered,
and
said,
These
are
they,
whom
the
Lord
hath
sent
to
walke
to
and
fro
through
the
earth.
1:11 And
they
answered
the
Angel
of
the
Lord
that
stood
among
the
mirtle
trees,
and
said,
Wee
haue
walked
to
and
fro
through
the
earth:
and
behold,
all
the
earth
sitteth
still,
and
is
at
rest.
1:12 Then
the
Angel
of
the
Lord
answered,
and
said,
O
Lord
of
hosts,
how
long
wilt
thou
not
haue
mercie
on
Ierusalem,
and
on
the
cities
of
Iudah,
against
which
thou
hast
had
indignation
these
threescore
and
ten
yeeres
1:13 And
the
Lord
answered
the
Angel
that
talked
with
me,
with
good
words,
and
comfortable
words.
1:14 So
the
Angel
that
communed
with
me,
said
vnto
me;
Cry
thou,
saying;
Thus
saith
the
Lord
of
hosts,
I
am
iealous
for
Ierusalem,
and
for
Zion,
with
a
great
iealousie.
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.
1:16 Therefore
thus
saith
the
Lord,
I
am
returned
to
Ierusalem
with
mercies:
my
house
shall
bee
built
in
it,
saith
the
Lord
of
hostes,
and
a
line
shalbe
stretched
forth
vpon
Ierusalem.
1:17 Cry
yet,
saying,
Thus
saith
the
Lord
of
hostes,
My
cities
through
prosperitie
shall
yet
be
spread
abroad,
and
the
Lord
shall
yet
comfort
Zion,
and
shall
yet
choose
Ierusalem.
1:18 Then
lift
I
vp
mine
eyes,
and
saw,
and
behold
foure
hornes.
1:19 And
I
said
vnto
the
Angel
that
talked
with
me;
What
be
these
and
he
answered
mee,
These
are
the
hornes
which
haue
scattered
Iudah,
Israel,
and
Ierusalem.
1:20 And
the
Lord
shewed
mee
foure
carpenters.
1:21 Then
said
I,
What
come
these
to
doe
And
hee
spake,
saying,
These
are
the
hornes
which
haue
scattered
Iudah,
so
that
no
man
did
lift
vp
his
head:
but
these
are
come
to
fray
them,
to
cast
out
the
hornes
of
the
Gentiles,
which
lift
vp
their
horne
ouer
the
land
of
Iudah
to
scatter
it.
