Zechariah 7:6

7:6 And now when you eat and drink, are you not doing so for yourselves?’”

Zechariah 8:8

8:8 And I will bring them to settle within Jerusalem. They will be my people, and I will be their God, ¹  in truth and righteousness.’

Zechariah 1:21

1:21 I asked, “What are these going to do?” He answered, “These horns are the ones that have scattered Judah so that there is no one to be seen. ²  But the blacksmiths have come to terrify Judah’s enemies ³  and cut off the horns of the nations that have thrust themselves against the land of Judah in order to scatter its people.” ⁴ 

¹ sn The affirmation They will be my people, and I will be their God speaks of covenant renewal, a restoration of the unbroken fellowship the Lord desired to have with his people but which their disloyalty had shattered. In the eschaton God and Israel will be in covenant union once again (cf. Jer 31:33).
