    For the ships of Chittim shall come against him: therefore he shall
    be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy
    covenant: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have
    intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant. And when he
    had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.
    Hear ye the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob, and all the families
    of the house of Israel: Thus saith the LORD, What iniquity have your
    fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked
    after vanity, and are become vain? Therefore according to the
    commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the
    brethren of their father. And the field of Ephron, which was in
    Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, and the cave which was
    therein, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all
    the borders round about, were made sure Unto Abraham for a
    possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all that
    went in at the gate of his city.

    In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, will I take thee, O
    Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the LORD, and
    will make thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the LORD
    of hosts. The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come
    bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow
    themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee,
    The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel. And Judah
    took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar. And they
    gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. And David
    called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for
    Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab, And
    said unto them, Ye are the chief of the fathers of the Levites:
    sanctify yourselves, both ye and your brethren, that ye may bring up
    the ark of the LORD God of Israel unto the place that I have
    prepared for it. But Amaziah would not hear.
