Zechariah 8:11-13
New American Standard Bible
11 But now I will (A)not [a]treat the remnant of this people as in the former days,’ declares the Lord of armies. 12 ‘For there will be (B)the seed of peace: the vine will yield its fruit, the land will yield its produce, and the heavens will provide their (C)dew; and I will give to the remnant of this people (D)all these things as an inheritance. 13 And it will come about that just as you were a (E)curse among the nations, house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you that you may become a (F)blessing. Do not fear; let your (G)hands be strong.’
