Zechariah 8:11-13

11‘But now it is different. I will not be angry with the few people that have returned,’ says the Lord Almighty.

12‘The seeds and the plants will grow well. The trees will give fruit. There will be water from the skies. I will bless the few people that will return.

13In past years, people from other countries have said bad things against you, Judah and Israel. But now I will help you. You will bless many people. Do not be afraid. Be strong.’
