Holman Christian Standard Bible
14 For the Lord of Hosts says this: “As I resolved to treat you badly when your fathers provoked Me to anger, and I did not relent,” says the Lord of Hosts, 15 “so I have resolved again in these days to do what is good to Jerusalem and the house of Judah.(A) Don’t be afraid. 16 These are the things you must do: Speak truth to one another; make true and sound decisions within your gates. 17 Do not plot evil(B) in your hearts against your neighbor,(C) and do not love perjury,(D) for I hate all this”—this is the Lord’s declaration.
