Zechariah 7:13 Made Simple

KJV ORIGINAL

Therefore it is come to pass, that as he cried, and they would not hear; so they cried, and I would not hear, saith the LORD of hosts:

Close to the original. Clear modern English.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

So here's what happened: when God was calling out to them, they completely ignored him. Now when they're crying out for help, God's like 'I'm not listening either,' says the Lord who rules everything.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

You can't ignore God when things are good and expect him to pick up when you're in trouble.
