\par }\ChapOne{1}{\PP \VerseOne{1}In the
eighth
month, in the
second
year of
Darius, came the
word of the
{\ND{LORD}} unto
Zechariah, the
son of
Berechiah, the
son of
Iddo the
prophet,
saying,

\VS{2}The
{\ND{LORD}} hath been
sore
displeased with your
fathers.\FTNT{*}{{\FR 1.2 }{\FT{sore…: Heb. with displeasure}}}

\VS{3}Therefore
say thou unto them, Thus
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts;
Turn ye unto me,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts, and I will
turn unto you,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts.

\VS{4}Be ye not as your
fathers, unto whom the
former
prophets have
cried,
saying, Thus
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts;
Turn ye now from your
evil
ways, and
{\ADD{from}} your
evil
doings: but they did not
hear, nor
hearken unto me,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}}.

\VS{5}Your
fathers, where
{\ADD{are}} they? and the
prophets, do they
live for
ever?

\VS{6}But my
words and my
statutes, which I
commanded my
servants the
prophets, did they not take
hold of your
fathers? and they
returned and
said, Like as the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts
thought to
do unto us, according to our
ways, and according to our
doings, so hath he
dealt with us.\FTNT{†}{{\FR 1.6 }{\FT{take…: or, overtake}}}


\par }{\PP \VS{7}¶ Upon the
four and
twentieth
day of the
eleventh
month, which
{\ADD{is}} the
month
Sebat, in the
second
year of
Darius, came the
word of the
{\ND{LORD}} unto
Zechariah, the
son of
Berechiah, the
son of
Iddo the
prophet,
saying,

\VS{8}I
saw by
night, and behold a
man
riding upon a
red
horse, and he
stood among the myrtle
trees that
{\ADD{were}} in the
bottom; and
behind him
{\ADD{were there}}
red
horses,
speckled, and
white.\FTNT{‡}{{\FR 1.8 }{\FT{speckled: or, bay}}}

\VS{9}Then
said I, O my
lord, what
{\ADD{are}} these? And the
angel that
talked with me
said unto me, I will
shew thee what these
{\ADD{be}}.

\VS{10}And the
man that
stood among the myrtle
trees
answered and
said, These
{\ADD{are they}} whom the
{\ND{LORD}} hath
sent to
walk to and fro through the
earth.

\VS{11}And they
answered the
angel of the
{\ND{LORD}} that
stood among the myrtle
trees, and
said, We have walked to and
fro through the
earth, and, behold, all the
earth sitteth
still, and is at
rest.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}¶ Then the
angel of the
{\ND{LORD}}
answered and
said, O
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts, how long wilt thou not have
mercy on
Jerusalem and on the
cities of
Judah, against which thou hast had
indignation these threescore and
ten
years?

\VS{13}And the
{\ND{LORD}}
answered the
angel that
talked with me
{\ADD{with}}
good
words
{\ADD{and}}
comfortable
words.

\VS{14}So the
angel that
communed with me
said unto me,
Cry thou,
saying, Thus
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts; I am
jealous for
Jerusalem and for
Zion with a
great
jealousy.

\VS{15}And I am
very
sore
displeased with the
heathen
{\ADD{that are}} at
ease: for I was but a
little
displeased, and they
helped forward the
affliction.

\VS{16}Therefore thus
saith the
{\ND{LORD}}; I am
returned to
Jerusalem with
mercies: my
house shall be
built in it,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts, and a
line shall be stretched
forth upon
Jerusalem.

\VS{17}Cry yet,
saying, Thus
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts; My
cities through
prosperity shall yet be spread
abroad; and the
{\ND{LORD}} shall yet
comfort
Zion, and shall yet
choose
Jerusalem.\FTNT{§}{{\FR 1.17 }{\FT{prosperity: Heb. good}}}


\par }{\PP \VS{18}¶ Then lifted I
up mine
eyes, and
saw, and behold
four
horns.

\VS{19}And I
said unto the
angel that
talked with me, What
{\ADD{be}} these? And he
answered me, These
{\ADD{are}} the
horns which have
scattered
Judah,
Israel, and
Jerusalem.

\VS{20}And the
{\ND{LORD}}
shewed me
four
carpenters.

\VS{21}Then
said I, What
come these to
do? And he
spake,
saying, These
{\ADD{are}} the
horns which have
scattered
Judah, so
that no
man did lift
up his
head: but these are
come to
fray them, to cast
out the
horns of the
Gentiles, which lifted
up
{\ADD{their}}
horn over the
land of
Judah to
scatter it.




\par }\Chap{2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}I lifted
up mine
eyes again, and
looked, and behold a
man with a
measuring
line in his
hand.

\VS{2}Then
said I, Whither
goest thou? And he
said unto me, To
measure
Jerusalem, to
see
what
{\ADD{is}} the
breadth thereof, and what
{\ADD{is}} the
length thereof.

\VS{3}And, behold, the
angel that
talked with me went
forth, and
another
angel went
out to
meet him,

\VS{4}And
said unto him,
Run,
speak to
this young
man,
saying,
Jerusalem shall be
inhabited
{\ADD{as}} towns without
walls for the
multitude of
men and
cattle
therein:

\VS{5}For I,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}}, will be unto her a
wall of
fire round
about, and will be the
glory in the
midst of her.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}¶
Ho,
ho,
{\ADD{come forth}}, and
flee from the
land of the
north,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}}: for I have spread you
abroad as the
four
winds of the
heaven,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}}.

\VS{7}Deliver thyself,
O
Zion, that
dwellest
{\ADD{with}} the
daughter of
Babylon.

\VS{8}For thus
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts;
After the
glory hath he
sent me unto the
nations which
spoiled you: for he that
toucheth you
toucheth the
apple of his
eye.

\VS{9}For, behold, I will
shake mine
hand upon them, and they shall be a
spoil to their
servants: and ye shall
know that the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts hath
sent me.


\par }{\PP \VS{10}¶
Sing and
rejoice, O
daughter of
Zion: for, lo, I
come, and I will
dwell in the
midst of thee,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}}.

\VS{11}And
many
nations shall be
joined to the
{\ND{LORD}} in that
day, and shall be my
people: and I will
dwell in the
midst of thee, and thou shalt
know that the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts hath
sent me unto thee.

\VS{12}And the
{\ND{LORD}} shall
inherit
Judah his
portion in the
holy
land, and shall
choose
Jerusalem again.

\VS{13}Be
silent, O all
flesh,
before the
{\ND{LORD}}: for he is raised
up out of his
holy
habitation.\FTNT{*}{{\FR 2.13 }{\FT{his…: Heb. the habitation of his holiness}}}




\par }\Chap{3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And he
shewed me
Joshua the
high
priest
standing
before the
angel of the
{\ND{LORD}}, and
Satan
standing at his right
hand to
resist him.\FTNT{*}{{\FR 3.1 }{\FT{Satan: that is, an adversary}}}\FTNT{†}{{\FR 3.1 }{\FT{to…: Heb. to be his adversary}}}

\VS{2}And the
{\ND{LORD}}
said unto
Satan, The
{\ND{LORD}}
rebuke thee, O
Satan; even the
{\ND{LORD}} that hath
chosen
Jerusalem
rebuke thee:
{\ADD{is}} not this a
brand
plucked out of the
fire?

\VS{3}Now
Joshua was
clothed with
filthy
garments, and
stood
before the
angel.

\VS{4}And he
answered and
spake unto those that
stood
before him,
saying, Take
away the
filthy
garments from him. And unto him he
said,
Behold, I have caused thine
iniquity to
pass from thee, and I will
clothe thee with change of
raiment.

\VS{5}And I
said, Let them
set a
fair
mitre upon his
head. So they
set a
fair
mitre upon his
head, and
clothed him with
garments. And the
angel of the
{\ND{LORD}} stood
by.

\VS{6}And the
angel of the
{\ND{LORD}}
protested unto
Joshua,
saying,

\VS{7}Thus
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts; If thou wilt
walk in my
ways, and if thou wilt
keep my
charge, then thou shalt also
judge my
house, and shalt also
keep my
courts, and I will
give thee places to
walk among these that stand
by.\FTNT{‡}{{\FR 3.7 }{\FT{charge: or, ordinance}}}\FTNT{§}{{\FR 3.7 }{\FT{places…: Heb. walks}}}


\par }{\PP \VS{8}Hear now, O
Joshua the
high
priest, thou, and thy
fellows that
sit
before thee: for they
{\ADD{are}}
men wondered
at: for, behold, I will bring
forth my
servant the
BRANCH.\FTNT{**}{{\FR 3.8 }{\FT{wondered…: Heb. of wonder, or, sign}}}

\VS{9}For behold the
stone that I have
laid
before
Joshua; upon
one
stone
{\ADD{shall be}}
seven
eyes: behold, I will
engrave the
graving thereof,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts, and I will
remove the
iniquity of that
land in
one
day.

\VS{10}In that
day,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts, shall ye
call every
man his
neighbour under the
vine and under the fig
tree.




\par }\Chap{4}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And the
angel that
talked with me came
again, and
waked me, as a
man that is
wakened out of his
sleep,

\VS{2}And
said unto me, What
seest thou? And I
said, I have
looked, and behold a
candlestick all
{\ADD{of}}
gold, with a
bowl upon the
top of it, and his
seven
lamps thereon, and
seven
pipes to the
seven
lamps, which
{\ADD{are}} upon the
top thereof:\FTNT{*}{{\FR 4.2 }{\FT{a bowl: Heb. her bowl}}}\FTNT{†}{{\FR 4.2 }{\FT{seven pipes…: or, seven several pipes to the lamps}}}

\VS{3}And
two olive
trees by it,
one upon the
right
{\ADD{side}} of the
bowl, and the
other upon the
left
{\ADD{side}} thereof.

\VS{4}So I
answered and
spake to the
angel that
talked with me,
saying, What
{\ADD{are}} these, my
lord?

\VS{5}Then the
angel that
talked with me
answered and
said unto me,
Knowest thou not what these be? And I
said, No, my
lord.

\VS{6}Then he
answered and
spake unto me,
saying, This
{\ADD{is}} the
word of the
{\ND{LORD}} unto
Zerubbabel,
saying, Not by
might, nor by
power, but by my
spirit,
saith the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts.\FTNT{‡}{{\FR 4.6 }{\FT{might: or, army}}}

\VS{7}Who
{\ADD{art}} thou, O

mountain?
before
Zerubbabel
{\ADD{thou shalt become}} a
plain: and he shall bring
forth the
headstone
{\ADD{thereof with}}
shoutings,
{\ADD{crying}},
Grace,
grace unto it.

\VS{8}Moreover the
word of the
{\ND{LORD}} came unto me,
saying,

\VS{9}The
hands of
Zerubbabel have laid the
foundation of this
house; his
hands shall also
finish it; and thou shalt
know that the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts hath
sent me unto you.

\VS{10}For who hath
despised the
day of small
things? for they shall
rejoice, and shall
see the
plummet in the
hand of
Zerubbabel
{\ADD{with}} those
seven; they
{\ADD{are}} the
eyes of the
{\ND{LORD}}, which run to and

earth.\FTNT{§}{{\FR 4.10 }{\FT{for they…: or, since the seven eyes of the

answered I, and
said unto him, What
{\ADD{are}} these
two olive
trees upon the
right
{\ADD{side}} of the
candlestick and upon the
left
{\ADD{side}} thereof?

\VS{12}And I
answered
again, and
said unto him, What
{\ADD{be these}}
two
olive
branches which
through the
two
golden
pipes
empty the
golden
{\ADD{oil}} out of themselves?\FTNT{††}{{\FR 4.12 }{\FT{through: Heb. by the hand of}}}\FTNT{‡‡}{{\FR 4.12 }{\FT{empty…: or, empty out of themselves oil into the gold}}}\FTNT{§§}{{\FR 4.12 }{\FT{the golden oil: Heb. the gold}}}

\VS{13}And he
answered me and
said,
Knowest thou not what these
{\ADD{be}}? And I
said, No, my
lord.

\VS{14}Then
said he, These
{\ADD{are}} the
two
anointed
ones, that
stand by the
Lord of the whole
earth.\FTNT{***}{{\FR 4.14 }{\FT{anointed…: Heb. sons of oil}}}




\par }\Chap{5}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Then I
turned, and lifted
up mine
eyes, and
looked, and behold a
flying
roll.

\VS{2}And he
said unto me, What
seest thou? And I
answered, I
see a
flying
roll; the
length thereof
{\ADD{is}}
twenty
cubits, and the
breadth thereof
ten
cubits.

\VS{3}Then
said he unto me, This
{\ADD{is}} the
curse that goeth
forth over the
face of the whole
earth: for every one that
stealeth shall be cut
off
{\ADD{as}} on this side
according to it; and every one that
sweareth shall be cut
off
{\ADD{as}} on that side
according to it.\FTNT{*}{{\FR 5.3 }{\FT{every one that stealeth…: or, every one of this people that stealeth holdeth himself guiltless, as it doth}}}

\VS{4}I will bring it
forth,
saith the

hosts, and it shall
enter into the
house of the
thief, and into the
house of him that
sweareth
falsely by my
name: and it shall
remain in the
midst of his
house, and shall
consume it with the
timber thereof and the
stones thereof.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}¶ Then the
angel that
talked with me went
forth, and
said unto me, Lift
up now thine
eyes, and
see what
{\ADD{is}} this that goeth
forth.

\VS{6}And I
said, What
{\ADD{is}} it? And he
said, This
{\ADD{is}} an
ephah that goeth
forth. He
said moreover, This
{\ADD{is}} their
resemblance through all the
earth.

\VS{7}And, behold, there was lifted
up a
talent of
lead: and this
{\ADD{is}}
a
woman that
sitteth in the
midst of the
ephah.\FTNT{†}{{\FR 5.7 }{\FT{talent: or, weighty piece}}}

\VS{8}And he
said, This
{\ADD{is}}
wickedness. And he
cast it into the
midst of the
ephah; and he
cast the
weight of
lead upon the
mouth thereof.

\VS{9}Then lifted I
up mine
eyes, and
looked, and, behold, there came
out
two
women, and the
wind
{\ADD{was}} in their
wings; for they
had
wings like the
wings of a
stork: and they lifted
up the
ephah between the
earth and the
heaven.

\VS{10}Then
said I to the
angel that
talked with me, Whither do these
bear the
ephah?

\VS{11}And he
said unto me, To
build it an
house in the
land of
Shinar: and it shall be
established, and
set there upon her own
base.




\par }\Chap{6}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And I
turned, and lifted
up mine
eyes, and
looked, and, behold, there
came
four
chariots
out from between
two
mountains; and the
mountains
{\ADD{were}}
mountains of
brass.

\VS{2}In the
first
chariot
{\ADD{were}}
red
horses; and in the

chariot
black
horses;

chariot
white
horses; and in the
fourth
chariot
grisled and
bay
horses.\FTNT{*}{{\FR 6.3 }{\FT{bay: or, strong}}}

\VS{4}Then I
answered and
said unto the
angel that
talked with me, What
{\ADD{are}} these, my
lord?

\VS{5}And the
angel
answered and
said unto me, These
{\ADD{are}} the
four
spirits of the
heavens, which go
forth from
standing before the
Lord of all the
earth.\FTNT{†}{{\FR 6.5 }{\FT{spirits: or, winds}}}

\VS{6}The
black
horses which
{\ADD{are}} therein go
forth into the
north
country; and the
white go
forth
after them; and the
grisled go
forth toward the
south
country.

\VS{7}And the
bay went
forth, and
sought to
go that they might walk to and
fro through the
earth: and he
said, Get you
hence, walk to and
fro through the
earth. So they walked to and
fro through the
earth.

\VS{8}Then
cried he
upon me, and
spake unto me,
saying,
Behold, these that
go toward the
north
country have
quieted my
spirit in the
north
country.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}¶ And the

\par }{\PP \VS{8}And it shall be in that
day,
{\ADD{that}}
living
waters shall go
out from
Jerusalem;
half of them toward the
former
sea, and
half of them toward the
hinder
sea: in
summer and in
winter shall it be.\FTNT{‡‡}{{\FR 14.8 }{\FT{former: or, eastern}}}

\VS{9}And the
{\ND{LORD}} shall be
king over all the
earth: in that
day shall there be
one
{\ND{LORD}}, and his
name
one.

\VS{10}All the
land shall be
turned as a
plain from
Geba to
Rimmon
south of
Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted
up, and
inhabited in her place, from
Benjamin’s
gate unto the
place of the
first
gate, unto the
corner
gate, and
{\ADD{from}} the
tower of
Hananeel unto the
king’s
winepresses.\FTNT{§§}{{\FR 14.10 }{\FT{turned: or, compassed}}}\FTNT{***}{{\FR 14.10 }{\FT{inhabited: or, shall abide}}}

destruction; but
Jerusalem shall be
safely
inhabited.\FTNT{†††}{{\FR 14.11 }{\FT{shall be: or, shall abide}}}

plague wherewith the
{\ND{LORD}} will
smite all the
people that have
fought against
Jerusalem; Their
flesh shall consume
away while they
stand upon their
feet, and their
eyes shall consume
away in their
holes, and their
tongue shall consume
away in their
mouth.

\VS{13}And it shall come to pass in that
day,
{\ADD{that}} a
great
tumult from the
{\ND{LORD}} shall be among them; and they shall lay
hold every
one on the
hand of his
neighbour, and his
hand shall rise
up against the
hand of his
neighbour.

\VS{14}And
Judah also shall
fight at
Jerusalem; and the
wealth of all the
heathen round
about shall be gathered
together,
gold, and
silver, and
apparel, in
great
abundance.\FTNT{‡‡‡}{{\FR 14.14 }{\FT{Judah…: or, thou also, O Judah shalt}}}\FTNT{§§§}{{\FR 14.14 }{\FT{at: or, against}}}

\VS{15}And so shall be the
plague of the
horse, of the
mule, of the
camel, and of the
ass, and of all the
beasts that shall be in
these
tents, as this
plague.


\par }{\PP \VS{16}¶ And it shall come to pass,
{\ADD{that}} every one that is
left of all the
nations which
came against
Jerusalem shall even go
up
from
year to
year to
worship the
King, the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts, and to
keep the
feast of
tabernacles.

\VS{17}And it shall be,
{\ADD{that}} whoso will not come
up of
{\ADD{all}} the
families of the
earth unto
Jerusalem to
worship the
King, the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts, even upon them shall be no
rain.

family of
Egypt go not
up, and
come not, that
{\ADD{have}} no
{\ADD{rain;}} there shall be the
plague, wherewith the
{\ND{LORD}} will
smite the
heathen that come not
up to
keep the
feast of
tabernacles.\FTNT{*}{{\FR 14.18 }{\FT{that have no: Heb. upon whom there is not}}}

\VS{19}This shall be the
punishment of
Egypt, and the
punishment of all
nations that come not
up to
keep the
feast of
tabernacles.\FTNT{†}{{\FR 14.19 }{\FT{punishment: or, sin}}}

day shall there be upon the
bells of the

HOLINESS UNTO THE

house shall be like the
bowls
before the
altar.\FTNT{‡}{{\FR 14.20 }{\FT{bells: or, bridles}}}

\VS{21}Yea, every
pot in
Jerusalem and in
Judah shall be
holiness unto the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts: and all they that
sacrifice shall
come and
take of them, and
seethe therein: and in that
day there shall be no more the
Canaanite in the
house of the
{\ND{LORD}} of
hosts.
