Zechariah 1:2-6

Zechariah 1:2-6 NCV

“The LORD was very angry with your ancestors. So tell the people: This is what the LORD All-Powerful says: ‘Return to me, and I will return to you,’ says the LORD All-Powerful. Don’t be like your ancestors. In the past the prophets said to them: This is what the LORD All-Powerful says: ‘Stop your evil ways and evil actions.’ But they wouldn’t listen or pay attention to me, says the LORD. Your ancestors are dead, and those prophets didn’t live forever. I commanded my words and laws to my servants the prophets, and they preached to your ancestors, who returned to me. They said, ‘The LORD All-Powerful did as he said he would. He punished us for the way we lived and for what we did.’ ”
