Zechariah 8:1-5 ▼

1 Then the word of the LORD who rules over all came to me as follows:

2 The LORD who rules over all says, 'I am very much concerned for Zion; indeed, I am so concerned for her that my rage will fall on those who hurt her.'

3 The Lord says, 'I have returned to Zion and will live within Jerusalem. Now Jerusalem will be called |truthful city,| |mountain of the LORD who rules over all,| |holy mountain.|'

4 Moreover, the LORD who rules over all says, 'Old men and women will once more live in the plazas of Jerusalem, each one leaning on a cane because of advanced age.

5 And the streets of the city will be full of boys and girls playing.
