Zechariah 8:14-17

International Children’s Bible

¹⁴ This is what the Lord of heaven’s armies says: “Your ancestors made me angry. So I planned to punish you. I had no mercy,” says the Lord of heaven’s armies. ¹⁵ “But now I am planning to do good to Jerusalem and Judah. So don’t be afraid. ¹⁶ But do these things: Tell each other the truth. In the courts judge with truth and complete fairness. ¹⁷ Do not make plans to hurt your neighbors. And don’t make false promises. I hate all these things,” says the Lord.
