8And the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, saying,

9Thus saith the Lord Almighty; Judge righteous judgment, and deal mercifully and compassionately every one with his brother:

— Zechariah 7:10 —

11But they refused to attend, and madly turned their back, and made their ears heavy, so that they should not hear.

12And they made their heart disobedient, so as not to hearken to my law, and the words which the Lord Almighty sent forth by his Spirit by the former prophets: so there was great wrath from the Lord Almighty.
