Zechariah 8
8
1Again the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies] came [to me], saying,
2Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]; I was jealous for Tziyon [parched place] with great jealousy, and I was jealous for her with great fury.
3Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate); I am returned unto Tziyon [parched place], and will dwell in the midst of Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]: and Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] shall be called a city of truth; and the mountain of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies] the holy mountain.
4Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]; There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], and every man with his staff in his hand for very age.
5And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.
6Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]; If it be marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, should it also be marvelous in my eyes? says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies].
7Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]; Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country;
8And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], in tand in righteousness.
9Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]; Let your hands be strong, you2f that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, which [were] in the day [that] the foundation of the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies] was laid, that the temple might be built.
10For before these days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast; neither [was there any] peace to him that went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men everyone against his neighbour.
11But now I [will] not [be] unto the residue (part that remains, the rest) of this people as in the former days, says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies].
12For the seed [shall be] prosperous; the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these [things].
13And it shall come to pass, [that] as you2f were a curse among the heathen, O house of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], and house of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]; so will I save you, and you2f shall be a blessing: fear not, [but] let your hands be strong.
14For thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies], and I repented not:
15So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] and to the house of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]: fear you2f not.
16These [are] the things that you2f shall do; Speak you2f every man the tto his neighbour; execute the judgment of tand peace in your gates:
17And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these [are things] that I hate, says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
18And the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies] came unto me, saying,
19Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]; The fast of the fourth [month], and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the tand peace.
20Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]; [It shall] yet [come to pass], that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities:
21And the inhabitants of one [city] shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and to seek the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]: I will go also.
22Yes, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies] in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], and to pray before the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
23Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies]; In those days [it shall come to pass], that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is Jewish (Y’hudi), saying, We will go with you: for we have heard [that] God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] [is] with you.
