Zechariah 8:14-17
New Living Translation
14 “For this is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: I was determined to punish you when your ancestors angered me, and I did not change my mind, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. 15 But now I am determined to bless Jerusalem and the people of Judah. So don’t be afraid. 16 But this is what you must do: Tell the truth to each other. Render verdicts in your courts that are just and that lead to peace. 17 Don’t scheme against each other. Stop your love of telling lies that you swear are the truth. I hate all these things, says the Lord.”

14 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Just as I had determined to bring disaster(A) on you and showed no pity when your ancestors angered me,” says the Lord Almighty, 15 “so now I have determined to do good(B) again to Jerusalem and Judah.(C) Do not be afraid. 16 These are the things you are to do: Speak the truth(D) to each other, and render true and sound judgment(E) in your courts;(F) 17 do not plot evil(G) against each other, and do not love to swear falsely.(H) I hate all this,” declares the Lord.

Zechariah 8:14-17
King James Version
14 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the Lord of hosts, and I repented not:
15 So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear ye not.
16 These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates:
17 And 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, saith the Lord.
