| 19 | I said to the angel who talked with me, What are these? He answered me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem. | Zc 1:9 Zc 1:21 Zc 2:2 Zc 4:11-14 Rev 7:13 Rev 7:14 |
| 20 | Yahweh showed me four smiths. | Zc 9:12-16 Zc 10:3-5 Zc 12:2-6 Dt 33:25 Jg 11:16 Jg 11:18 1Sa 12:11 Ne 9:27 Isa 54:15-17 Ob 1:21 Mic 5:5 Mic 5:6 Mic 5:8 Mic 5:9 |
| 21 | Then said I, What come these to do? He spoke, saying, These are the horns which scattered Judah, so that no man did lift up his head; but these are come to terrify them, to cast down the horns of the nations, which lifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it. | Zc 1:19 Dn 12:7 |
