Zechariah 1:5-7

International Children’s Bible

⁵ Your ancestors are dead. And those prophets didn’t live forever. ⁶ I commanded my words and laws to my servants the prophets. They preached to your ancestors, who returned to me. They said, ‘The Lord of heaven’s armies did as he said he would. He punished us for the way we lived and for what we did.’”
