Zechariah 8:14-17

14“For this is what the Lord of armies says: ‘Just as I 1determined to do harm to you when your fathers provoked Me to anger,’ says the Lord of armies, ‘and I have not 2relented, 15so I have again determined in these days to 3do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. 4Do not fear! 16These are the things which you shall do: speak the 5truth to one another; 6judge with truth and judgment for peace at your 7gates. 17Also let none of you 8devise evil in your heart against another, and do not love 910perjury; for all these things are what I 11hate,’ declares the Lord.”
