Zechariah 7:12-14

The Voice

Eternal One: ¹³ When I called out, they chose not to hear Me, so when they called out, I returned the favor and decided not to hear them. ¹⁴ Like a sweeping tornado, I blew them throughout the nations, scattering them in distant lands where they were aliens, all alone. That’s how the land and its cities were emptied out and left so barren that no one even traveled through it. This is how your pleasant hills and valleys turned into empty lands.
