Zechariah 8:13-15
Names of God Bible
13 Just as you, people of Judah and people of Israel,
have been a curse among the nations,
so I will now save you,
and you will become a blessing.
Don’t be afraid. Let your hands work hard.
14 This is what Yahweh Tsebaoth says:
When your ancestors made me angry,
I made plans to destroy you, declares Yahweh Tsebaoth,
and I didn’t change my plans.
15 So now I have again made plans, but this time to do good
to Jerusalem and the people of Judah.
Don’t be afraid.
Zechariah 8:13-15
