38:008:010 For before these days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast; neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men every one against his neighbour.
38:008:011 But now I will not be unto the residue of this people as in the former days, saith the LORD of hosts.
38:008:012 For the seed shall be prosperous; the vine shall give her
fruit, and the ground 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.
38:008:013 And it shall come to pass, that as ye were a curse among the
heathen, O house of Judah, and house of Israel; so will I save
you, and ye shall be a blessing: fear not, but let your hands
be strong.
38:008:014 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the LORD of hosts, and I repented not:
38:008:015 So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear ye not.
38:008:016 These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the
truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and
peace in your gates:
38:008:017 And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his
neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things
that I hate, saith the LORD.
38:008:018 And the word of the LORD of hosts came unto me, saying,
38:008:019 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the truth and peace.
