“Thus says Yahweh of hosts.
‘I will save my people
From the east country,
As well as from the west country.
I will bring them
To live
In Jerusalem.
They shall be my people.
I will be their God,
In faithfulness,
In righteousness.’”
Yahweh of hosts, via Zechariah, said that he would save his people not only from Babylon in the east, but also those scattered in the western countries. He wanted to bring them all together to live in Jerusalem, the holy city. They would be his people. He would be their God, faithfully and righteously.
