Christian Standard Bible
16 At that time those who feared the Lord spoke to one another. The Lord took notice and listened. So a book of remembrance(A) was written before him for those who feared the Lord and had high regard for his name. 17 “They will be mine,” says the Lord of Armies,(B) “my own possession on the day I am preparing.
