Zechariah 7:4-7

4 Then came the word of the LORD of hosts unto me, saying,
5 "Speak unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying, `When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh month even those seventy years, did ye fast at all unto Me, even to Me?
6 And when ye ate and when ye drank, did not ye eat for yourselves and drink for yourselves?
7 Should ye not hear the words which the LORD hath cried by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and in prosperity, and the cities thereof round about her, when men inhabited the south and the plain?'"
