Zechariah 1:18-21
New King James Version
Vision of the Horns
18 Then I raised my eyes and looked, and there were four (A)horns. 19 And I said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these?”
So he answered me, (B)“These are the [a]horns that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”
20 Then the Lord showed me four craftsmen. 21 And I said, “What are these coming to do?”
So he said, “These are the (C)horns that scattered Judah, so that no one could lift up his head; but [b]the craftsmen are coming to terrify them, to cast out the horns of the nations that (D)lifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.”
