Bible: 2 Chron. 24:20-22
24:20 God’s Spirit energized 1 Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest. He stood up before the people and said to them, “This is what God says: ‘Why are you violating the commands of the Lord ? You will not be prosperous! Because you have rejected the Lord , he has rejected you!’” 24:21 They plotted against him and by royal decree stoned him to death in the courtyard of the Lord ’s temple. 24:22 King Joash disregarded 2 the loyalty his father Jehoiada had shown him and killed Jehoiada’s 3 son. As Zechariah 4 was dying, he said, “May the Lord take notice and seek vengeance!” 5
