8:16: Eph 4:25.

8 and_ the _word _of _he/it _was of_YHWH hosts to_say.
2 Thus YHWH he _says hosts I _am _jealous for_Tsiyyōn/(Zion) jealousy great and_severe _anger great I _am _jealous to/for_her/it.
3 Thus YHWH he _says I _have _returned to Tsiyyōn and_dwell in _the_middle of _Yərūshālam/(Jerusalem) and_called Yərūshālam the _city _of the_faithful and_mountain _of YHWH hosts the _mountain _of the_holy.
4 thus YHWH he _says hosts again they _will _sit old _[men] and_old in/on/at/with_streets _of Yərūshālam and_each staff _of_his in_his/its_hand because _of_great _of days.
5 And_streets _of the_city they _will _be _filled boys and_girls playing in/on/at/with_streets _of_its.
6 thus YHWH he _says hosts if/because it _will _be _difficult in/on_both _eyes _of the _remnant _of the_people the_this in _the_days the_those also in/on/at/with_sight _of_me will _it _be _difficult the _utterance _of YHWH hosts.
7 thus YHWH he _says hosts see_I [am]_about _to _save DOM people _of_my from_land _of [the]_east and_from_land _of the _setting _of the_sun.
8 And_bring DOM_them and_live in _the_middle of _Yərūshālam 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 YHWH he _says hosts let _them _be _strong hands _of_your _all’s the_hearing in _the_days the_these DOM the_words the_these from_mouth _of the_prophets who in/on_day [when]_it _was _founded the _house _of YHWH hosts the_temple for_rebuilding.
10 If/because to_(the)_face _of/in _front _of/before the_days the_those the _wage[s]_of the_humankind not it _happened and_wage _of 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 _of the_humankind each in/on/at/with_neighbor _of_his.
11 And_now not as _the_days the_former I with_remnant _of the_people the_this the _utterance _of YHWH hosts.
12 If/because the _seed _of the_peace the_vine it _will _give fruit _of_its and_the_earth it _will _give DOM produce _of_its and_the_heavens they _will _give dew _of_their and_give _asan _inheritance DOM the _remnant _of the_people the_this DOM all _of 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 hands _of_your _all’s let _them _be _strong.
14 if/because thus YHWH he _says hosts just_as I _planned[fn] to_bring _disaster to/for_you _all in/on/at/with_provoked _tosevere _anger fathers _of_your _all’s DOM_me he _says YHWH hosts and_not I _relented.
15 So I _have _returned I _have _planned in _the_days the_these to_do _good DOM Yərūshālam/(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 _of_your _all’s.
17 And_one DOM the _harm _of his/its_neighbour do _not plan in/on/at/with_hearts _of_your _all’s and_oath _of falsehood do _not love if/because DOM all _of these [are _things]_which I _hate the _utterance _of YHWH.
18 and_ the _word _of _he/it _was of_YHWH hosts to_me to_say.
19 Thus YHWH he _says hosts the _fast _of the_fourth and_fast _of the_fifth and_fast _of the_seventh and_fast _of the_tenth it _will _become for_house _of Yəhūdāh/(Judah) of_joy and_for_gladness and_for_festivals good and_the_truth and_the_peace love.
20 thus YHWH he _says 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 hosts I _will _go also I.
22 And_ peoples _come many and_nations mighty to_seek DOM YHWH hosts in/on/at/with_Yərūshālam and_to_entreat DOM the _face _of YHWH.
23 thus[fn] YHWH he _says hosts in _the_days the_those (cmp) they _will _take _hold ten people from_all the _languages _of 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.
