Zechariah 1:15-17
1599 Geneva Bible
15 And am greatly angry against the careless heathen: for I was angry but [a]a little, and they helped forward the affliction.
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord, I will return unto Jerusalem with tender mercy: mine house shall be built in it, saith the Lord of hosts, and a line [b]shall be stretched upon Jerusalem.
17 Cry yet, and speak, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, My cities shall yet [c]be broken with plenty: the Lord shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
