Zechariah 1:3-6

3 Therefore say to them, ‘This is what the Lord of armies says: “ ^aReturn to Me,” declares the Lord of armies, “ ^{▼▼Or and I will}that I may return to you,” says the Lord of armies. 4 “Do not be ^clike your fathers, to whom the ^dformer prophets proclaimed, saying, ‘This is what the Lord of armies says: “ ^eReturn now from your evil ways and from your evil deeds.”’ But they did ^fnot listen or pay attention to Me,” declares the Lord. 5 “Your ^gfathers, where are they? And the ^hprophets, do they live forever? 6 But did My words and My statutes, which I commanded My servants the prophets, not ^{▼▼Or reach
,} ^jovertake your fathers? Then they repented and said, ‘ ^kJust as the Lord of armies planned to do to us in accordance with our ways and our deeds, so He has dealt with us.’”’”
