Zechariah 1:13-15
Amplified Bible
13 And the Lord answered the angel who was speaking with me with gracious and comforting words. 14 So the angel who was speaking with me said to me, “Proclaim, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, “I am jealous [with a burning, fiery passion] for Jerusalem and for Zion [demanding what is rightfully and uniquely mine] with a great jealousy. 15 But I am very angry with the [a]nations who are at ease and feel secure; for while I was only a little angry, they [b]furthered the disaster [against the people of Israel].”
