Jesus teaches to love your enemies, which seems to contrast with the notion of retribution upon nations mentioned in Zechariah 2:8.

Contradiction with Romans 12:19
This verse speaks of leaving vengeance to God, which contrasts with the direct response mentioned in Zechariah 2:8, though both indicate God's ultimate authority over justice.

Contradiction with Isaiah 54:17
Talks about no weapon forming against God's servants prospering, implying divine protection rather than the retaliatory tone of Zechariah 2:8.
Isaiah 54:17: No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue [that] shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This [is] the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness [is] of me, saith the LORD.
