Zechariah 8:9-19

9ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635: Let your handsH3027 be strongH2388, ye that hearH8085 in these daysH3117 these wordsH1697 from the mouthH6310 of the prophetsH5030 that were in the dayH3117 that the foundation of the houseH1004 of Jehovah of hostsH6635 was laid, even the temple, that it might be builtH1129. 10For before those daysH3117 there was no hireH7939 for manH376, nor any hireH7939 for beast; neither was there any peaceH7965 to him that wentH3318 out or cameH935 in, because of the adversary: for I set all menH376 every oneH376 against his neighborH7453. 11But nowH6258 I will not be unto the remnantH7611 of this peopleH5971 as in the formerH7223 daysH3117, saith Jehovah of hostsH6635. 12For there shall be the seedH2233 of peaceH7965; the vineH1612 shall giveH5414 its fruitH6529, and the groundH776 shall giveH5414 its increase, and the heavensH8064 shall giveH5414 their dewH2919; and I will cause the remnantH7611 of this peopleH5971 to inheritH5157 all these thingsH428. 13And it shall come to pass that, as ye were a curseH7045 among the nationsH1471, O houseH1004 of JudahH3063 and houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, soH3651 will I saveH3467 you, and ye shall beH1961 a blessingH1293. FearH3372 not, but let your handsH3027 beH1961 strongH2388.

14For thusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635: As I thought to do evilH7489 unto you, when your fathersH1 provoked me to wrath, saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, and I repentedH5162 not; 15soH3651 again have I thought in these daysH3117 to do goodH3190 unto JerusalemH3389 and to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063: fearH3372 ye not. 16These are the thingsH1697 that ye shall do: SpeakH1696 ye every manH376 the truthH571 with his neighborH7453; execute the judgmentH4941 of truthH571 and peaceH7965 in your gatesH8179; 17and let none of you devise evilH7451 in your heartsH3824 against his neighborH7453; and loveH157 no false oathH7621: for all these are thingsH428 that I hateH8130, saith Jehovah.

18And the wordH1697 of Jehovah of hostsH6635 came unto me, sayingH559, 19ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635: The fastH6685 of the fourthH7243 month, and the fastH6685 of the fifthH2549, and the fastH6685 of the seventhH7637, and the fastH6685 of the tenthH6224, shall beH1961 to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 joyH8057 and gladnessH8057, and cheerful feastsH4150; therefore loveH157 truthH571 and peaceH7965.
