Zechariah 1:4-5

4 Do not be like your forefathers, to whom the earlier prophets proclaimed: This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘Turn from your evil ways and your evil practices.’ But they would not listen or pay attention to me, declares the Lord.

5 Where are your forefathers now? And the prophets, do they live forever?
