Zechariah
1:12-17
The
Intercession of Christ
Zec 1:12 Then the angel of the LORD answered
and said, O 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?
Zec 1:13 And the LORD answered the angel that
talked with me with good words and comfortable words.
Zec 1:14 So the angel that communed with me
said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I am jealous for
Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
Zec 1:15 And I am very sore displeased with the
heathen that are at ease: for I was
but a little displeased, and they helped forward the affliction.
Zec 1:16 Therefore thus saith the LORD; I am
returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the
LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.
Zec 1:17 Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD
of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD
shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
