“And now the LORD says:

I am returning to Mount Zion,

and I will live in Jerusalem.

Then Jerusalem will be called the Faithful City;

the mountain of the LORD of Heaven’s Armies

will be called the Holy Mountain.

Zechariah 8:3

Judge fairly, and show mercy and kindness to one another.

Do not oppress widows, orphans, foreigners, and the poor.

And do not scheme against each other.

Zechariah 7:9-10

Do not despise these small beginnings,

for the LORD rejoices to see the work begin…

Zechariah 4:10

…It is not by force

nor by strength,

but by my Spirit,

says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies.

Zechariah 4:6

Be silent before the LORD,

all humanity,

for he is springing into action

from his holy dwelling place.

Zechariah 2:13

The LORD says,

“Shout and rejoice,

O beautiful Jerusalem,

for I am coming to live among you.

Many nations will join themselves

to the LORD on that day,

and they, too, will be my people.

I will live among you,

and you will know

that the LORD of Heaven’s Armies

sent me to you.

Zechariah 2:10-11

…this is what the LORD of Heaven’s Armies says:

in just a little while

I will again shake the heavens and the earth,

the oceans and the dry land.

(path down to the Sea of Galilee)

Then I will purify the speech of all people,

so that everyone can worship the LORD together.

Zephaniah 3:9

Even though the fig trees have no blossoms,

and there are no grapes on the vines,

even though the olive crop fails,

and the fields lie empty and barren,

even though the flocks die in the fields,

and the cattle barns are empty,

yet I will rejoice in the LORD!

I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!

Habakkuk 3:17-18

…His brilliant splendor fills the heavens,

and the earth is filled with his praise.

His coming is as brilliant as the sunrise.

Rays of light flash from his hands,

where his awesome power is hidden.

Habakkuk 3:3-4
