6 Who burned the holy cityand left its streets desolate,
7 As foretold by Jeremiah. They mistreated himwho even in the womb had been made a prophet,To root out, pull down, and destroy,and then to build and to plant.
8 Ezekiel beheld a visionand described the different creatures of the chariot;
9 He also referred to Job,who always persevered in the right path.
10 Then, too, the Twelve Prophets—may their bones flourish with new life where they lie!—They gave new strength to Jacoband saved him with steadfast hope.
11 How to extol Zerubbabel?He was like a signet ring on the right hand,
12 And Jeshua, Jozadak’s son?In their time they rebuilt the altarAnd erected the holy temple,destined for everlasting glory.
