1 The LORD of Armies spoke his word. 2 This is what the LORD of Armies says: I am very jealous about Zion. I am fiercely possessive of it. 3 This is what the LORD says: I will return to Zion and live in Jerusalem. Jerusalem will be called the City of Truth. The mountain of the LORD of Armies will be called the holy mountain. 4 This is what the LORD of Armies says: Old men and old women will again sit in the streets of Jerusalem. Each will have a cane in hand because of old age. 5 The city will be filled with boys and girls playing in the streets. 6 This is what the LORD of Armies says: It may seem impossible to the few remaining people in those days, but will it seem impossible to me? declares the LORD of Armies. 7 This is what the LORD of Armies says: I am going to save my people from the land where the sun rises and from the land where the sun sets. 8 I will bring them back, and they will live in Jerusalem. They will be my people, and I will be their God, who is faithful and just. Zechariah 8:1-8, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
