Zechariah 7:11-14

English Standard Version

¹¹ But ^(A)they refused to pay attention ^(B)and turned a stubborn shoulder and stopped their ears that they might not hear.^{[a] 12 (C)}They made their hearts diamond-hard ^(D)lest they should hear the law and the words that the Lord of hosts had sent ^(E)by his Spirit through ^(F)the former prophets. ^(G)Therefore great anger came from the Lord of hosts. ^13 (H)“As I^[b] called, and they would not hear, ^(I)so they called, and I would not hear,” says the Lord of hosts, ^14 (J)“and I scattered them with a whirlwind among all ^(K)the nations that they had not known. ^(L)Thus the land they left was desolate, ^(M)so that no one went to and fro, ^(N)and the pleasant land was made desolate.”
