38:008:011 But now I will not be unto the residue
of this people as in
the
former days, saith the lord of hosts.
38:008:012 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.
38:008:013 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.
38:008:014 For thus saith the lord of hosts;
As I thought to punish you,
when
your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the lord
of
hosts,
and I repented not:
38:008:015 So again have I thought in these days to
do well unto
Jerusalem
and to the house of Judah: fear ye not.
38:008:016 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:
38:008:017 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 lord.
38:008:018 And the word of the lord of hosts came unto me, saying,
38:008:019 Thus saith the lord 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.
38:008:020 Thus saith the lord of hosts; It shall
yet come to pass, that
there
shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities:
38:008:021 And the inhabitants of one city shall go
to another, saying,
Let
us go speedily to pray before the lord, and to
seek the
lord
of hosts: I will go also.
38:008:022 Yea, many people and strong nations shall
come to seek the
lord
of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the lord.
38:008:023 Thus saith the lord 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.
38:009:001 The burden of the word of the lord
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 lord.
