Zechariah 8:13–17 · Berean Standard Bible

13 As you have been a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you, and you will be a blessing. Do not be afraid; let your hands be strong.”

14 For this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Just as I resolved to bring disaster upon you when your fathers provoked Me to anger, and I did not relent,” says the LORD of Hosts,

15 “so now I have resolved to do good again to Jerusalem and Judah. Do not be afraid.

16 These are the things you must do: Speak truth to one another, render true and sound judgments in your gates,

17 do not plot evil in your hearts against your neighbor, and do not love to swear falsely, for I hate all these things,” declares the LORD.
