Zechariah 8:9-13

8:9

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_;

Let your hands
<03027>

be strong
<02388> (8799)_,

ye that hear
<08085> (8802)

in these days
<03117>

these words
<01697>

by the mouth
<06310>

of the prophets
<05030>_,

which [were] in the day
<03117>

[that] the foundation
<03245> (0)

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

was laid
<03245> (8795)_,

that the temple
<01964>

might be built
<01129> (8736)_.

8:10

For before
<06440>

these days
<03117>

there was
<01961> (8738)

no hire
<07939>

for man
<0120>_,

nor any hire
<07939>

for beast
<0929>_;

neither [was there any] peace
<07965>

to him that went out
<03318> (8802)

or came in
<0935> (8802)

because of the affliction
<06862>_:

for I set
<07971> (8762)

all men
<0120>

every one
<0376>

against his neighbour
<07453>_.

{there was...: or, the hire of man became nothing}

8:11

But now I [will] not [be] unto the residue
<07611>

of this people
<05971>

as in the former
<07223>

days
<03117>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_.

8:12

For the seed
<02233>

[shall be] prosperous
<07965>_;

the vine
<01612>

shall give
<05414> (8799)

her fruit
<06529>_,

and the ground
<0776>

shall give
<05414> (8799)

her increase
<02981>_,

and the heavens
<08064>

shall give
<05414> (8799)

their dew
<02919>_;

and I will cause the remnant
<07611>

of this people
<05971>

to possess
<05157> (8689)

all these [things]. {prosperous: Heb. of peace}

8:13

And it shall come to pass, [that] as ye were a curse
<07045>

among the heathen
<01471>_,

O house
<01004>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_;

so will I save
<03467> (8686)

you, and ye shall be a blessing
<01293>_:

fear
<03372> (8799)

not, [but] let your hands
<03027>

be strong
<02388> (8799)_.
