Zechariah 8:4-8
New American Standard Bible
4 The Lord of armies says this: ‘(A)Old men and old women will again sit in the public squares of Jerusalem, each person with his staff in his hand because of [a]age. 5 And the public squares of the city will be filled with (B)boys and girls playing in its squares.’ 6 The Lord of armies says this: ‘If it is (C)too difficult in the sight of the remnant of this people in those days, will it also be (D)too difficult in My sight?’ declares the Lord of armies. 7 The Lord of armies says this: ‘Behold, I am going to save My people from the land of the [b](E)east and from the land of the [c]west; 8 and I will (F)bring them back and they will (G)live in the midst of Jerusalem; and they shall be (H)My people, and I will be their God in [d]truth and righteousness.’
