| Zechariah 8:2 | These are the words of the Lord of armies: I am angry about the fate of Zion, I am angry about her with great wrath. | Thus says Yahweh of Hosts: I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with great wrath. | Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I have been jealous for Sion with a great jealousy, and with a great indignation have I been jealous for her. |
| Zechariah 8:3 | This is what the Lord has said: I have come back to Zion, and will make my living-place in Jerusalem: and Jerusalem will be named The town of good faith; and the mountain of the Lord of armies The holy mountain. | Thus says Yahweh: I am returned to Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called The city of truth; and the mountain of Yahweh of Hosts, The holy mountain. | Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I am returned to Sion, and I will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called The city of truth, and the mountain of the Lord of hosts, The sanctified mountain. |
| Zechariah 8:4 | This is what the Lord of armies has said: There will again be old men and old women seated in the open spaces of Jerusalem, every man with his stick in his hand because he is so old. | Thus says Yahweh of Hosts: There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, every man with his staff in his hand for very age. | Thus saith the Lord of hosts: There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem: and every man with his staff in his hand through multitude of days. |
| Zechariah 8:5 | And the open spaces of the town will be full of boys and girls playing in its open spaces. | The streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets of it. | And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls, playing in the streets thereof. |
| Zechariah 8:6 | This is what the Lord of armies has said: If this is a wonder to the rest of this people, is it a wonder to me? says the Lord of armies. | Thus says Yahweh of Hosts: If it be marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvelous in my eyes? says Yahweh of Hosts. | Thus saith the Lord of hosts: If it seem hard in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days: shall it be hard in my eyes, saith the Lord of hosts? |
| Zechariah 8:7 | This is what the Lord of armies has said: See, I will be the saviour of my people from the east country, and from the west country; | Thus says Yahweh of Hosts: Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country; | Thus saith the Lord of hosts : Behold I will save my people from the land of the east, and from the land of the going down of the sun. |
| Zechariah 8:8 | And I will make them come and be living in Jerusalem and they will be to me a people and I will be to them a God, in good faith and in righteousness. | and I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness. | And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God in truth and in justice. |
| Zechariah 8:9 | This is what the Lord of armies has said: Let your hands be strong, you who are now hearing these words from the mouths of the prophets, that is to say, in the days when the base of the house of the Lord of armies has been put in place for the building of the house, that is the Temple. | Thus says Yahweh of Hosts: Let your hands be strong, you who hear in these days these words from the mouth of the prophets who were in the day that the foundation of the house of Yahweh of Hosts was laid, even the temple, that it might be built. | Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Let your hands be strengthened, you that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, in the day that the house of the Lord of hosts was founded, that the temple might be built. |
| Zechariah 8:10 | For before those days there was no payment for a man's work, or for the use of a beast, and there was no peace for him who went out or him who came in, because of the attacker: for I had every man turned against his neighbour. | For before those days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for animal; neither was there any peace to him who went out or came in, because of the adversary: for I set all men everyone against his neighbor. | For before those days there was no hire for men, neither was there hire for beasts, neither was there peace to him that came in, nor to him that went out, because of the tribulation: and I let all men go every one against his neighbour. |
| Zechariah 8:11 | But now I will not be to the rest of this people as I was in the past, says the Lord of armies. | But now I will not be to the remnant of this people as in the former days, says Yahweh of Hosts. | But now I will not deal with the remnant of this people according to the former days, saith the Lord of hosts. |
| Zechariah 8:12 | For I will let the seed of peace be planted; the vine will give her fruit and the land will give her increase and the heavens will give their dew; and I will give to the rest of this people all these things for their heritage. | For [there shall be] the seed of peace; the vine shall give its fruit, and the ground shall give its increase, and the sky shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things. | But there shall be the seed of peace: the vine shall yield her fruit, and the earth 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. |
| Zechariah 8:13 | And it will come about that, as you were a curse among the nations, O children of Judah and children of Israel, so I will give you salvation and you will be a blessing: have no fear and let your hands be strong. | It shall come to pass that, as you were a curse among the nations, house of Judah and house of Israel, so will I save you, and you shall be a blessing. Don't be afraid, [but] let your hands be strong. | And it shall come to pass, that as you were a curse among the Gentiles, O house of Juda, and house of Israel: so will I save you, and you shall be a blessing: fear not, let your hands be strengthened. |
| Zechariah 8:14 | For this is what the Lord of armies has said: As it was my purpose to do evil to you when your fathers made me angry, says the Lord of armies, and my purpose was not changed: | For thus says Yahweh of hosts: As I thought to do evil to you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, says Yahweh of Hosts, and I didn't repent; | For thus saith the Lord of hosts: As I purposed to afflict you, when your fathers had provoked me to wrath, saith the Lord, |
| Zechariah 8:15 | So in these days it is again my purpose to do good to Jerusalem and to the children of Judah: have no fear. | so again have I thought in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: don't you fear. | And I had no mercy: so turning again I have thought in these days to do good to the house of Juda, and Jerusalem: fear not. |
| Zechariah 8:16 | These are the things which you are to do: Let every man say what is true to his neighbour; and let your judging give peace in your towns. | These are the things that you shall do: speak you every man the truth with his neighbor; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates; | These then are the things, which you shall do: Speak ye truth every one to his neighbour: judge ye truth and judgment of peace in your gates. |
| Zechariah 8:17 | Let no one have any evil thought in his heart against his neighbour; and have no love for false oaths: for all these things are hated by me, says the Lord. | and let none of you devise evil in your hearts against his neighbor; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, says Yahweh. | And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his friend: and love not a false oath: for all these are the things that I hate, saith the Lord. |
| Zechariah 8:18 | And the word of the Lord of armies came to me, saying, | The word of Yahweh of Hosts came to me, saying, | And the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying: |

| Zechariah 8:20 | This is what the Lord of armies has said: It will again come about that when peoples and those living in great towns come, | Thus says Yahweh of Hosts: [It shall] yet [happen], that there shall come peoples, and the inhabitants of many cities; | Thus saith the Lord of hosts, until people come, and dwell in many cities, |
| Zechariah 8:21 | And the people of one town go to another and say, Let us certainly go with a request for grace from the Lord, and to give worship to the Lord of armies, then I will go with you. | and the inhabitants of one [city] shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to entreat the favor of Yahweh, and to seek Yahweh of Hosts: I will go also. | And the inhabitants go one to another, saying: Let us go, and entreat the face of the Lord, and let us seek the Lord of hosts: I also will go. |
| Zechariah 8:22 | And great peoples and strong nations will come to give worship to the Lord of armies in Jerusalem and to make requests for grace from the Lord. | Yes, many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek Yahweh of Hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favor of Yahweh. | And many peoples, and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the face of the Lord. |
