Zechariah 8:11

Douay-Rheims 1899

In The King James Version

But now I will not be unto the residue of this people as in the former days, saith the LORD of hosts.

In Context

12But 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.
