Zechariah 7:8-11
New King James Version
Disobedience Resulted in Captivity
8 Then the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, saying, 9 “Thus says the Lord of hosts:
(A)‘Execute true justice,
Show [a]mercy and compassion
Everyone to his brother.
10 (B)Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless,
The alien or the poor.
(C)Let none of you plan evil in his heart
Against his brother.’
11 “But they refused to heed, (D)shrugged[b] their shoulders, and (E)stopped[c] their ears so that they could not hear.
