Zechariah 8:2-8
2Thus saith Yhwh of Armies; I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I was jealous for her with great fury.
3Thus saith Yhwh; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the mountain of Yhwh of Armies the holy mountain.
4Thus saith Yhwh of Armies; There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very age.1
5And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.
6Thus saith Yhwh of Armies; If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, should it also be marvellous in mine eyes? saith Yhwh of Armies.2
7Thus saith Yhwh of Armies; Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country;3
8And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.
