Zechariah 6:9-15

The Crown and the Temple

9And the aword of Yahweh came to me, saying, 10aTake an offering from the exiles, from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah; and you come the same day and come into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon. 11And take silver and gold, make an ornate acrown, and set it on the head of bJoshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest. 12Then you will say to him, ‘Thus says Yahweh of hosts, “Behold, a man whose name is 1,aBranch, and He will 2,bbranch out from where He is; and He will cbuild the temple of Yahweh. 13Indeed, it is He who will build the temple of Yahweh, and He who will abear the splendor and sit and brule on His throne. Thus, He will be a cpriest on His throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two 1offices.”’ 14Now the acrown will become a memorial in the temple of Yahweh to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and 1Hen the son of Zephaniah. 15aAnd those who are far off will come and 1build the temple of Yahweh.” Then you will bknow that Yahweh of hosts has sent me to you. And it will happen if you utterly clisten to the voice of Yahweh your God.
