The Prophet Zechariah 1:14-21 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

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

15. And I am very sore displeased with the Gentiles that are at ease; for I was but a little displeased, and they helped forward the affliction.

16. Therefore thus hath the Lord said, I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies; my house shall be built in her, saith the Lord of the hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.

17. Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the Lord of the hosts, My cities through abundance of good shall yet be widened; and the Lord shall yet comfort Zion and shall yet choose Jerusalem.

18. Then I lifted up my eyes and saw and behold four horns.

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

20. And the Lord showed me four carpenters.

21. Then I said, What do these come to do? And he spoke, saying, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no one lifted up his head, but these are come to cause them to tremble, to cut down the horns of the Gentiles, which lifted up their horn over the land of Judah to scatter it.
