8:16: Eph 4:25.

8 and_he/it _was the _word of_YHWH of _hosts to_say.
2 Thus he _says YHWH of _hosts I _am _jealous for_Tsiyyōn/(Zion) jealousy great and_severe _anger great I _am _jealous to/for_her/it.
3 Thus he _says YHWH I _have _returned to Tsiyyōn and_dwell in _the_middle of _Yərūshālayim/(Jerusalem) and_called Yərūshālayim the _city the_faithful and_mountain of_YHWH of _hosts the _mountain the_holy.
4 thus he _says YHWH of _hosts again they _will _sit old _[men] and_old in/on/at/with_streets of _Yərūshālayim and_each staff_his in_his/its_hand because _of_great of _days.
5 And_streets the_city they _will _be _filled boys and_girls playing in/on/at/with_streets_its.
6 thus he _says YHWH of _hosts if/because it _will _be _difficult in/on_both _eyes _of the _remnant the_people the_this in _the_days the_those also in/on/at/with_sight_me will _it _be _difficult the _utterance of_YHWH of _hosts.
7 thus he _says YHWH of _hosts see_I [am]_about _to _save DOM people_my from_land of _[the]_east and_from_land of _the _setting the_sun.
8 And_bring DOM_them and_live in _the_middle of _Yərūshālayim and_they _will _be to_me as_people and_I I _will _become to/for_them as_god in/on/at/with_faithfulness and_in/on/at/with_righteousness.
9 thus he _says YHWH of _hosts let _them _be _strong hands_your _all’s the_hearing in _the_days the_these DOM the_words the_these from_mouth the_prophets who in/on_day [when]_it _was _founded the _house of_YHWH of _hosts the_temple for_rebuilding.
10 If/because to_(the)_face _of/in _front _of/before the_days the_those the _wage[s] the_humankind not it _happened and_wage the_cattle/livestock nor_her and_for _those_went _out and_to _those_came _in there _[was]_not peace from the_enemy and_set DOM every the_humankind each in/on/at/with_neighbor_his.
11 And_now not as _the_days the_former I with_remnant the_people the_this the _utterance of_YHWH of _hosts.
12 If/because the _seed the_peace the_vine it _will _give fruit_its and_the_earth it _will _give DOM produce_its and_the_heavens they _will _give dew_their and_give _asan _inheritance DOM the _remnant the_people the_this DOM all these _[things].
13 And_it _was just_as you _all _were a _curse in/on/at/with_nations Oh _house of _Yəhūdāh/(Judah) and_house of _Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) so I _will _save DOM_you _all and_you _all _will _be a _blessing do _not be _afraid let _them _be _strong hands_your _all’s.
14 if/because thus he _says YHWH of _hosts just_as I _planned[fn] to_bring _disaster to/for_you _all in/on/at/with_provoked _tosevere _anger fathers_your _all’s DOM_me he _says YHWH of _hosts and_not I _relented.
15 So I _have _returned I _have _planned in _the_days the_these to_do _good DOM Yərūshālayim/(Jerusalem) and_DOM the _house of _Yəhūdāh do _not be _afraid.
16 These the_things which you _all _will _do speak truth each with his/its_neighbour faithfulness and_judgement of _peace judge in/on/at/with_gates_your _all’s.
17 And_one DOM the _harm his/its_neighbour do _not plan in/on/at/with_hearts_your _all’s and_oath of _falsehood do _not love if/because DOM all these [are _things]_which I _hate the _utterance of_YHWH.
18 and_he/it _was the _word of_YHWH of _hosts to_me to_say.
19 Thus he _says YHWH of _hosts the _fast the_fourth and_fast the_fifth and_fast the_seventh and_fast the_tenth it _will _become for_house of _Yəhūdāh of_joy and_for_gladness and_for_festivals good and_the_truth and_the_peace love.
20 thus he _says YHWH of _hosts yet (cmp) they _will _come peoples and_inhabitants of _cities many.
21 And_go [the]_inhabitants of _one _[city] to one _[city] to_say let _us _go indeed _(go) to_entreat DOM the _face of_YHWH and_to_seek DOM YHWH of _hosts I _will _go also I.
22 And_come peoples many and_nations mighty to_seek DOM YHWH of _hosts in/on/at/with_Yərūshālayim and_to_entreat DOM the _face of_YHWH.
23 thus[fn] he _says YHWH of _hosts in _the_days the_those (cmp) they _will _take _hold ten people from_all the _languages the_nations and_take _hold in/on/at/with_garment of _a _person a _Jew to_say we _want _to _go with_you _all if/because we _have _heard god with_you _all.

8:14 Note: We agree with both BHS 1997 and BHQ on an unexpected reading.

8:23 Note: We read one or more accents in L differently from BHQ.
