Zechariah 1:3-5

English Standard Version

³ Therefore say to them, Thus declares the Lord of hosts: ^(A)Return to me, says the Lord of hosts, and ^(B)I will return to you, says the Lord of hosts. ^4 (C)Do not be like your fathers, ^(D)to whom the former prophets cried out, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, ^(E)Return from your evil ways and from your evil deeds.’ But ^(F)they did not hear or pay attention to me, declares the Lord. ⁵ Your fathers, where are they? And ^(G)the prophets, do they live forever?
