Then the Spirit of God came over Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, and he stood above the people and said to them, “This is what God has said: ‘Why do you transgress the commandments of the LORD so that you cannot prosper?

For I was [fn]cupbearer to the king [of Persia].

And he will be like a tree firmly planted [and fed] by streams of water,

Which yields its fruit in its season;

Its leaf does not wither;

And in whatever he does, he prospers [and comes to maturity].

Do not fret (whine, agonize) because of him who prospers in his way,

Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes.

For the cause of truth and humility and righteousness;

Let Your right hand guide You to awesome things.

Without accomplishing what I desire,

And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.
