affliction: for I set all men every one against his neighbour.
11
But now I
will
not
be
unto the residue
of this people as in the former days, saith the L
ORD
of hosts.
12
For the seed
shall be
prosperous;
the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their
dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these
things.
13
And it shall come
to pass,
that
as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Judah, and house of Israel; so will
I save you, and ye shall be a blessing: fear not,
but
let your hands be strong.
14
For thus saith the
L
ORD
of hosts; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the L
ORD
of hosts, and I repented not:
15
So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and
to the house of Judah: fear ye not.
16
These
are
the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute
the judgment of truth and peace in your gates:
17
And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts
against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these
are things
that I hate, saith the L
ORD
.
18
And the word of the L
ORD
of hosts came unto me, saying,
19
Thus saith the L
ORD
of hosts;
The fast of the fourth
month,
and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the
tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the truth
and peace.
20
Thus saith the L
ORD
of hosts;
It shall
yet
come to pass,
that there shall come people,
and the inhabitants of many cities:
21
And the inhabitants of one
city
shall go to another, saying,
Let us go speedily to pray before the L
ORD
, and to seek the L
ORD
of hosts: I will go also.
22
Yea,
many people and strong nations shall come to seek the L
ORD
of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray
before the L
ORD
.
23
Thus saith the L
ORD
of hosts; In those days
it shall come to pass,
that ten men
shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a
Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard
that
God
is
with you.
CHAPTER 9
The burden of the word of the L
ORD
in the land of Hadrach, and Damascus
shall be
the rest thereof:
when the eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel,
shall be
toward the L
ORD
.
2
And Hamath also
shall border thereby; Tyrus, and Zidon, though it be very wise.
3
And Tyrus did build herself a
strong hold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.
4
Behold, the
Lord will cast her out, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.
5
Ashkelon shall see
it,
and fear; Gaza also
shall see it,
and be very sorrowful, and Ekron; for her
expectation shall be ashamed; and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be
inhabited.
6
And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
7
And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth:
but he that remaineth, even he,
shall be
for our God, and he shall be as a governor in Judah, and
Ekron as a Jebusite.
8
And I will encamp about mine house because of the army, because of him
