V.1 Again the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 came [to me], saying, 559-2

8:2 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts; 6635 I was jealous 7065-14 for Zion 6726 with great 1419 jealousy, 7068 and I was jealous 7065-14 for her with great 1419 fury. 2534

8:3 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD; 3068 I am returned 7725-1 unto Zion, 6726 and will dwell 7931-1 in the midst 8432 of Jerusalem: 3389 and Jerusalem 3389 shall be called 7121-8 a city 5892 of truth; 571 and the mountain 2022 of the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 the holy 6944 mountain. 2022

8:4 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts; 6635 There shall yet old men 2205 and old women 2205 dwell 3427-4 in the streets 7339 of Jerusalem, 3389 and every man 376 with his staff 4938 in his hand 3027 for very 7230 age. 3117

8:5 And the streets 7339 of the city 5892 shall be full 4390- 11 of boys 3206 and girls 3207 playing 7832-18 in the streets 7339 thereof.

8:6 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts; 6635 If it be marvellous 6381-11 in the eyes 5869 of the remnant 7611 of this people 5971 in these days, 3117 should it also be marvellous 6381-11 in mine eyes? 5869 saith 5002-7 the LORD 3068 of hosts. 6635

8:7 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts; 6635 Behold, I will save 3467-56 my people 5971 from the east 4217 country, 776 and from the west 3996 8121 country; 776

8:8 And I will bring 935-52 them, and they shall dwell 7931-1 in the midst 8432 of Jerusalem: 3389 and they shall be my people, 5971 and I will be their God, 430 in truth 571 and in righteousness. 6666

8:9 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts; 6635 Let your hands 3027 be strong, 2388-4 ye that hear 8085-6 in these days 3117 these words 1697 by the mouth 6310 of the prophets, 5030 which [were] in the day 3117 [that] the foundation of the house 1004 of the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 was laid, 3245- 27 that the temple 1964 might be built. 1129-9

8:10 For before 6440 these days 3117 there was 1961-8 no hire 7939 for man, 120 nor any hire 7939 for beast; 929 neither [was there any] peace 7965 to him that went out 3318-6 or came in 935-6 because of the affliction: 6862 for I set 7971- 17 all men 120 every one 376 against his neighbour. 7453

8:11 But now I [will] not [be] unto the residue 7611 of this people 5971 as in the former 7223 days, 3117 saith 5002-7 the LORD 3068 of hosts. 6635

8:12 For the seed 2233 [shall be] prosperous; 7965 the vine 1612 shall give 5414-4 her fruit, 6529 and the ground 776 shall give 5414-4 her increase, 2981 and the heavens 8064 shall give 5414-4 their dew; 2919 and I will cause the remnant 7611 of this people 5971 to possess 5157-52 all these [things].

8:13 And it shall come to pass, [that] as ye were a curse 7045 among the heathen, 1471 O house 1004 of Judah, 3063 and house 1004 of Israel; 3478 so will I save 3467-55 you, and ye shall be a blessing: 1293 fear 3372-4 not, [but] let your hands 3027 be strong. 2388-4

8:14 For thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts; 6635 As I thought 2161-1 to punish 7489-53 you, when your fathers 1 provoked me to wrath, 7107-53 saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts, 6635 and I repented 5162-8 not:

8:15 So again 7725-1 have I thought 2161-1 in these days 3117 to do well 3190-53 unto Jerusalem 3389 and to the house 1004 of Judah: 3063 fear 3372-4 ye not.

8:16 These [are] the things 1697 that ye shall do; 6213-4 Speak 1696-16 ye every man 376 the truth 571 to his neighbour; 7453 execute 8199-3 the judgment 4941 of truth 571 and peace 7965 in your gates: 8179

8:17 And let none 376 of you imagine 2803-4 evil 7451 in your hearts 3824 against his neighbour; 7453 and love 157-4 no false 8267 oath: 7621 for all these [are things] that I hate, 8130-1 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

8:18 And the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 came unto me, saying, 559-2

8:19 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts; 6635 The fast 6685 of the fourth 7243 [month], and the fast 6685 of the fifth, 2549 and the fast 6685 of the seventh, 7637 and the fast 6685 of the tenth, 6224 shall be to the house 1004 of Judah 3063 joy 8342 and gladness, 8057 and cheerful 2896 feasts; 4150 therefore love 157-3 the truth 571 and peace. 7965

8:20 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts; 6635 [It shall] yet [come to pass], that there shall come 935-4 people, 5971 and the inhabitants 3427-6 of many 7227 cities: 5892

8:21 And the inhabitants 3427-6 of one 259 [city] shall go 1980-1 to another, 259 saying, 559-2 Let us go 3212-4 speedily 1980-2 to pray 2470-15 before 6440 the LORD, 3068 and to seek 1245-15 the LORD 3068 of hosts: 6635 I will go 3212-4 also.

8:22 Yea, many 7227 people 5971 and strong 6099 nations 1471 shall come 935-1 to seek 1245-15 the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 in Jerusalem, 3389 and to pray 2470-15 before 6440 the LORD. 3068
