Zechariah 7:12

Disobedience And Fasting

¹¹ But they would not give attention, turning their backs and stopping their ears from hearing; ¹² And they made their hearts like the hardest stone, so that they might not give ear to the law and the words which the Lord of armies had said by the earlier prophets: and there came great wrath from the Lord of armies. ¹³ And it came about that as they would not give ear to his voice, so I would not give ear to their voice, says the Lord of armies:
