2 Chronicles 24:19-21

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁹ And he sent prophets to them to bring them back to the Lord, and they would not give ear when they testified against them.

²⁰ The spirit of God then came upon Zacharias the son of Joiada the priest, and he stood in the sight of the people, and said to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Why transgress you the commandment of the Lord which will not be for your good, and have forsaken the Lord, to make him forsake you?

²¹ And they gathered themselves together against him, and stoned him at the king's commandment in the court of the house of the Lord.
