Zechariah 1:13-15

Living Bible

¹³ And the Lord answered the angel who stood beside me, speaking words of comfort and assurance.

¹⁴ Then the angel said, “Shout out this message from the Lord Almighty: ‘Don’t you think I care about what has happened to Judah and Jerusalem? I am as jealous as a husband for his captive wife. ¹⁵ I am very angry with the heathen nations sitting around at ease, for I was only a little displeased with my people, but the nations afflicted them far beyond my intentions.’
