2 Thus saith Hashem Tzva'os; I am jealous for Tziyon with kina gedolah (great jealousy) and I am jealous for her with chemah gedolah (great fury).
3 Thus saith Hashem: I will return unto Tziyon, and will dwell in the midst of Yerushalayim; and Yerushalayim shall be called Ir HaEmes; and Har Hashem Tzva'os, Har HaKodesh.
4 Thus saith Hashem Tzva'os: Zekenim and zekenot shall yet dwell in the rechovot of Yerushalayim, and every man with his staff in his hand me'rov yamim (because of many days, i.e., old age).
5 And the rechovot of the city shall be full of yeladim and yeladot playing in the rechovot thereof.
6 Thus saith Hashem Tzva'os; If it be marvellous in the eyes of the she'erit HaAm HaZeh in those days, should it also be marvellous in Mine eyes? saith Hashem Tzva'os.
7 Thus saith Hashem Tzva'os: Hineni, I will save My people from the eretz mizrach (land of the east), and from the eretz of the setting sun;
8 And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Yerushalayim; and they shall be My people, and I will be their G-d, in emes and in tzedakah.
