* In the eighth month , in the second year of Darius , came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah , the son of Berechiah , the son of Iddo the prophet , saying , * The LORD hath been sore displeased with your fathers . * Therefore say thou unto them , Thus saith the LORD of hosts ; Turn ye unto me , saith the LORD of hosts , and I will turn unto you , saith the LORD of hosts . * Be ye not as your fathers , unto whom the former prophets have cried , saying , Thus saith the LORD of hosts ; Turn ye now from your evil ways , and from your evil doings : but they did not hear , nor hearken unto me , saith the LORD . * Your fathers , where are they ? and the prophets , do they live for ever ? * But my words and my statutes , which I commanded my servants the prophets , did they not take hold of your fathers ? and they returned and said , Like as the LORD of hosts thought to do unto us , according to our ways , and according to our doings , so hath he dealt with us .
