Zechariah 8:1-3

New English Translation

The Blessing of True Fasting

8 Then the message of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies^[a] came to me as follows: ² “The Lord of Heaven’s Armies says, ‘I am very much concerned for Zion; indeed, I am so concerned for her that my rage will fall on those who hurt her.’ ³ The Lord says, ‘I have returned to Zion and will live within Jerusalem. Now Jerusalem will be called “truthful city,” “mountain of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies,” “holy mountain.”’
