Zechariah 5:6

A merchant has dishonest scales in his hand. He loves to defraud.

He said, “Why would you want go to him today? It is not a new moon or a Sabbath.” She said, “It’s all right.”

You shall not have in your bag diverse weights, one heavy and one light.

I will also cause all her celebrations to cease: her feasts, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.

Saying, ‘When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell grain? And the Sabbath, that we may market wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel large, and dealing falsely with balances of deceit;

Then I asked, ‘My lord, what are these?’ ” The angel who talked with me said to me, “I will show you what these are.”

Then I asked the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?”

“If anyone sins, and commits a trespass against Yahweh, and deals falsely with his neighbor in a matter of deposit, or of bargain, or of robbery, or has oppressed his neighbor,

You shall have just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin. I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.

“Also in the day of your gladness, and in your set feasts, and in the beginnings of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; and they shall be to you for a memorial before your God. I am Yahweh your God.”

I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”

You say also, ‘Behold, what a weariness it is!’ and you have sniffed at it”, says Yahweh of Armies; “and you have brought that which was taken by violence, the lame, and the sick; thus you bring the offering. Should I accept this at your hand?” says Yahweh.

Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field.”

But when his disciples saw this, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste?
