15 But now I am planning to bless the people of Jerusalem and Judah. So don't be afraid.
16 These are the things you should do: speak the truth to one another. In the courts, give real justice — the kind that brings peace.
17 Do not plan ways of harming one another. Do not give false testimony under oath. I hate lying, injustice, and violence.”
18 The Lord Almighty gave this message to Zechariah:
19 “The fasts held in the fourth, fifth, seventh, and tenth months will become festivals of joy and gladness for the people of Judah. You must love truth and peace.”
20 The Lord Almighty says, “The time is coming when people from many cities will come to Jerusalem.
21 Those from one city will say to those from another, ‘We are going to worship the Lord Almighty and pray for his blessing. Come with us!’
