1599 Geneva Bible
19 And God sent Prophets among them, to bring them again unto the Lord: and they [a]made protestation among them, but they would not hear.
20 And the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the Priest, which stood [b]above the people, and said unto them, Thus saith God, Why transgress ye the commandments of the Lord? surely ye shall not prosper: because ye have forsaken the Lord, he also hath forsaken you.
21 Then they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the [c]commandment of the king, in the court of the house of the Lord.
