¹¹ So they answered the angel of the Lord who was ^(A)standing among the myrtle trees and said, “We have ^[a]patrolled the earth, and behold, ^(B)all the earth is ^[b]peaceful and quiet.”

¹² Then the angel of the Lord said, “O Lord of hosts, ^(C)how long will You ^(D)have no compassion for Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, with which You have been ^(E)indignant these ^(F)seventy years?” ¹³ The Lord answered the ^(G)angel who was speaking with me with ^[c]gracious words, ^(H)comforting words.
