Zechariah 8:10-13

10For before those days there was 1no wage for man or any wage for animal; and for him who went out or came in there was no 2 3peace because of 4his enemies, and I 5set all men one against another. 11But now I will 6not 7treat the remnant of this people as in the former days,’ declares the Lord of hosts. 12‘For there will be 8peace for the seed: the vine will yield its fruit, the land will yield its produce and the heavens will give their 9dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit 10all these things. 13It will come about that just as you were a 11curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you that you may become a 12blessing. Do not fear; let your 13hands be strong.’
