Zechariah - Chapter: 8


8:1	Againe the word of the Lord of hostes came to me, saying;
8:2	Thus sayeth the Lord of hostes, I was iealous for Zion, with great iealousie; and I was iealous for her with great furie.
8:3	Thus saith the Lord, I am returned vnto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Ierusalem, and Ierusalem shall be called a Citie of trueth, and the Mountaine of the Lord of hostes, the holy Mountaine.
8:4	Thus saith the Lord of hosts; There shall yet old men, and old women, dwell in the streets of Ierusalem, and euery man with his staffe in his hand for very age.
8:5	And the streets of the citie shall be full of boyes and girles playing in the streets thereof.
8:6	Thus saith the Lord of hosts, If it bee marueilous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these dayes, should it also bee marueilous in my eyes, saith the Lord of hostes?
8:7	Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Beholde, I will saue my people from the East countrey, and from the West countrey.
8:8	And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Ierusalem, and they shalbe my people, and I will bee their God, in Trueth and in Righteousnesse.
8:9	Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Let your handes be strong, ye that heare in these dayes, these wordes by the mouth of the Prophets, which were in the day that the foundation of the house of the Lord of hosts was laied, that the Temple might be built.
8:10	For before these daies there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast, neither was there any peace to him that went out, or came in, because of the affliction: for I set all men, euery one against his neighbour.
8:11	But now I will not bee vnto the residue of this people, as in the former daies, saith the Lord of hostes.
8:12	For the seed shalbe prosperous: the Uine shall giue her fruit, and the ground shall giue her increase, and the heauens shall giue their dew, and I will cause the remnant of this people to possesse all these things.
8:13	And it shall come to passe, that as yee were a curse among the heathen, O house of Iudah, and house of Israel; so will I saue you, and ye shalbe a blessing: feare not, but let your handes bee strong.
8:14	For thus saith the Lord of hostes, As I thought to punish you, when your fathers prouoked mee to wrath, saith the Lord of hostes, and I repented not:
8:15	So againe haue I thought in these dayes to doe well vnto Ierusalem, and to the house of Iudah: feare ye not.
8:16	These are the things that yee shall doe; Speake yee euery man the truth to his neighbor: execute the iudgment of trueth and peace in your gates.
8:17	And let none of you imagine euill in your hearts against his neighbour, and loue no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith the Lord.
8:18	And the word of the Lord of hostes came vnto me, saying,
8:19	Thus saith the Lord of hosts; The fast of the fourth moneth, and the fast of the fift, and the fast of the seuenth, and the fast of the tenth shall be to the house of Iudah ioy and gladnesse, and cheerefull feasts: therefore loue the trueth and peace.
8:20	Thus saith the Lord of hosts, It shall yet come to passe, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities.
8:21	And the inhabitants of one citie shall goe to another, saying, Let vs goe speedily to pray before the Lord, and to seeke the Lord of hostes: I will goe also.
8:22	Yea many people and strong nations shall come to seeke the Lord of hostes in Ierusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
8:23	Thus saith the Lord of hosts, In those daies it shall come to passe, that ten men shall take holde out of all languages of the nations, euen shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Iew, saying, Wee will goe with you: for we haue heard that God is with you.


8:1	Againe the worde of the Lord of hostes came to me, saying,
8:2	Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I was ielous for Zion with great ielousie, and I was ielous for her with great wrath.
8:3	Thus saith the Lord, I wil returne vnto Zion, and wil dwel in the mids of Ierusalem: and Ierusalem shalbe called a citie of trueth, and the Mountaine of the Lord of hostes, the holy Mountaine.
8:4	Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, There shall yet olde men and olde women dwell in the streetes of Ierusalem, and euery man with his staffe in his hand for very age.
8:5	And the streetes of the citie shalbe full of boyes and girles, playing in the streetes thereof.
8:6	Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Though it be vnpossible in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these dayes, should it therefore be vnpossible in my sight, sayth the Lord of hostes?
8:7	Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Beholde, I will deliuer my people from the East countrey, and from the West countrey.
8:8	And I wil bring them, and they shall dwel in the mids of Ierusalem, and they shalbe my people, and I wil be their God in trueth, and in righteousnes.
8:9	Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Let your hands be strong, ye that heare in these dayes these words by the mouth of the Prophets, which were in the day, that the foundation of the House of the Lord of hostes was laide, that the Temple might be builded.
8:10	For before these dayes there was no hire for man nor any hire for beast, neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men, euery one against his neighbour.
8:11	But nowe, I wil not intreate the residue of this people as aforetime, saith the Lord of hostes.
8:12	For the seede shall be prosperous: the vine shall giue her fruite, and the ground shall giue her increase, and the heauens shall giue their dewe, and I will cause the remnant of this people to possesse all these things.
8:13	And it shall come to passe, that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Iudah, and house of Israel, so wil I deliuer you, and ye shalbe a blessing: feare not, but let your hands be strong.
8:14	For thus sayth the Lord of hostes, As I thought to punish you, when your fathers prouoked me vnto wrath, sayth the Lord of hostes, and repented not,
8:15	So againe haue I determined in these daies to doe well vnto Ierusalem, and to the house of Iudah: feare ye not.
8:16	These are ye things that ye shall doe. Speake ye euery man the trueth vnto his neighbour: execute iudgement truely and vprightly in your gates,
8:17	And let none of you imagine euill in your hearts against his neighbour, and loue no false othe: for all these are the things that I hate, saith the Lord.
8:18	And the worde of the Lord of hostes came vnto me, saying,
8:19	Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, The fast of the fourth moneth, and the fast of the fift, and the fast of the seuenth, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Iudah ioy and gladnes, and prosperous hie feasts: therefore loue the trueth and peace.
8:20	Thus saith the Lord of hostes, That there shall yet come people, and the inhabitants of great cities.
8:21	And they that dwell in one citie, shall go to another, saying, Vp, let vs go and pray before the Lord, and seeke the Lord of hostes: I wil go also.
8:22	Yea, great people and mightie nations shall come to seeke the Lord of hostes in Ierusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
8:23	Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, In those dayes shall ten men take holde out of all languages of the nations, euen take holde of the skirt of him that is a Iewe, and say, We will go with you: for we haue heard that God is with you.


8:1	So the worde of the Lord came vnto me, sayenge.
8:2	Thus sayth the Lord of hoostes. I was in a great gelousy ouer Sion, yee, I haue bene very gelous ouer her in a great dyspleasur
8:3	thus sayeth the Lord of hoostes. I will turne me agayne vnto Syon, & wyll dwell in the myddest of Ierusalem: so that Ierusalem shalbe called a faythfull & true cytye, the hyl of the Lorde of hoostes, yee, an holy hyll.
8:4	Thus sayth the Lorde of hoostes. There shall yet olde men & wemen dwel agayne in the stretes of Ierusalem: yee, & soch as go wt staues in their handes for very age.
8:5	The stretes of the cytye also shalbe full of yonge boyes and damselles, playinge vpon the strates.
8:6	Thus sayeth the Lord of hostes: yf the resydue of this people thynke it to be vnpossible in these dayes, shuld it therfore be vnpossyble in my syght, sayth the Lord of hoostes?
8:7	Thus sayth the Lorde of hoostes: Beholde, I will delyuer my people from the lande of the east & west,
8:8	and wyll brynge them agayne: that they maye dwell at Ierusalem. They shalbe my people, & I wyll be theyr God, in treuth and ryghteousnesse.
8:9	Thus sayth the Lorde of hostes: let your handes be stronge, ye that now heare these wordes by the mouth of the prophetes, whych be in these dayes that the foundacyon is layed vpon the Lord of hoostes house that the temple maye be builded.
8:10	For why? before these dayes, nether men ner catel coulde wynne eny thinge, nether myght eny man come in and out in rest, for trouble: but I lett euery man go agaynst his neyghboure.
8:11	Neuertheles, I wyll now intreate the resydue of thys people nomore as afore tyme, sayth the Lord of hoostes,
8:12	but they shalbe a sede of peace. The vyneyarde shal geue her frute, the grounde shall geue her increase, and the heauens shall geue theyr dewe: and I shall cause the remnaunt of thys people, to haue all these in possession.
8:13	And it shall come to passe, that lyke as ye were a curse amonge the Heathen (O ye house of Iuda, and ye house of Israel) Euen so wil I delyuer you, that ye shalbe a blessing: feare not, but let your handes be stronge.
8:14	For thus sayth the Lord of hoostes: lyke as I deuysed to punysh you, what tyme as your fathers prouoked me vnto wrath, sayeth the Lord of hoostes, & spared not.
8:15	Euen so am I determined now in these dayes, for to do well vnto the house of Iuda & Ierusalem, therfore feare ye not.
8:16	Nowe the thynges that ye shall do, are these: Speake euery man the treuth vnto hys neyghboure, execute iudgement truly, and peaceably wythyn your portes,
8:17	none of you ymagin euel in his herte agaynst hys neyghboure, and loue no false othes: for all these are the thynges that I hate, sayeth the Lorde.
8:18	And the worde of the Lord of hoostes, came vnto me, sayeng:
8:19	thus sayeth the Lorde of hoostes. The fast of the fourth moneth, the fast of the fifth, the fast of the seuenth, and the fast of the tenth, shall be ioye and gladnesse, and prosperous hye feastes vnto the house of Iuda: Onely, loue the treuth and peace.
8:20	Thus sayeth the Lord of hoostes. There shall yet come people, and the inhabiters of many cytyes,
8:21	& they that dwell in one cyte shal go to another, sayeng. Up, let vs go, & praye before the Lorde, let vs seke the Lorde of hoostes, I wyll go wt you:
8:22	yee, moch people & myghtye Heathen shal come & seke the Lord of hoostes at Ierusalem, and to praye before the Lord.
8:23	Thus sayeth the Lord of hoostes. In that tyme shall ten men (out of all maner of languages of the Gentyles) take one Iewe by the hemme of hys garment, & saye: we wyll go wt you, for we haue herde, that God is amonge you.
