Zechariah 1:14-16

English Standard Version

¹⁴ So ^(A)the angel who talked with me said to me, ‘Cry out, Thus says the Lord of hosts: ^(B)I am exceedingly jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion. ^15 (C)And I am exceedingly angry with the nations that are ^(D)at ease; ^(E)for while I was angry but a little, ^(F)they furthered the disaster. ¹⁶ Therefore, thus says the Lord, ^(G)I have returned to Jerusalem with mercy; ^(H)my house shall be built in it, declares the Lord of hosts, and ^(I)the measuring line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.
