Zechariah 8:14-17

New Century Version

¹⁴ This is what the Lord All-Powerful says: “When your ancestors made me angry, I planned to punish you. I did not change my mind,” says the Lord All-Powerful. ¹⁵ “But now I will do something different. I am planning to do good to Jerusalem and Judah. So don’t be afraid. ¹⁶ These are the things you should do: 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 love false promises. I hate all these things,” says the Lord.
