Zech 8:11 'But now I will not treat the remnant of this people as in the former days,' declares the LORD of hosts.
Zech 8:12 'For there will be peace for the seed: the vine will yield its fruit, the land will yield its produce and the heavens will give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.
Zech 8:13 'It will come about that just as you were a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you that you may become a blessing. Do not fear; let your hands be strong.'
Zech 8:14 ¶ "For thus says the LORD of hosts, 'Just as I purposed to do harm to you when your fathers provoked Me to wrath,' says the LORD of hosts, 'and I have not relented,
Zech 8:15 so I have again purposed in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. Do not fear!
Zech 8:16 'These are the things which you should do: speak the truth to one another; judge with truth and judgment for peace in your gates.
Zech 8:17 'Also let none of you devise evil in your heart against another, and do not love perjury; for all these are what I hate,' declares the LORD."
Zech 8:18 ¶ Then the word of the LORD of hosts came to me, saying,
Zech 8:19 "Thus says the LORD of hosts, 'The fast of the fourth, the fast of the fifth, the fast of the seventh and the fast of the tenth months will become joy, gladness, and cheerful feasts for the house of Judah; so love truth and peace.'
Zech 8:20 ¶ "Thus says the LORD of hosts, 'It will yet be that peoples will come, even the inhabitants of many cities.
Zech 8:21 'The inhabitants of one will go to another, saying, "Let us go at once to entreat the favor of the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts; I will also go."
Zech 8:22 'So many peoples and mighty nations will come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem and to entreat the favor of the LORD.'
Zech 8:23 "Thus says the LORD of hosts, 'In those days ten men from all the nations will grasp the garment of a Jew, saying, "Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.""'
Zech 9:1 The burden of the word of the LORD is against the land of Hadrach, with Damascus as its resting place (for the eyes of men, especially of all the tribes of Israel, are toward the LORD),
Zech 9:2 And Hamath also, which borders on it; Tyre and Sidon, though they are very wise.
Zech 9:3 For Tyre built herself a fortress And piled up silver like dust, And gold like the mire of the streets.
Zech 9:4 Behold, the Lord will dispossess her And cast her wealth into the sea; And she will be consumed with fire.
Zech 9:5 Ashkelon will see it and be afraid. Gaza too will writhe in great pain; Also Ekron, for her expectation has been confounded. Moreover, the king will perish from Gaza, And Ashkelon will not be inhabited.
Zech 9:6 And a mongrel race will dwell in Ashdod, And I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
Zech 9:7 And I will remove their blood from their mouth And their detestable things from between their teeth. Then they also will be a remnant for our God, And be like a clan in Judah, And Ekron like a Jebusite.
