Zechariah 2:11

Context
2:11 “Many nations will join themselves to the Lord on the day of salvation, 1  and they will also be my 2  people. Indeed, I will settle in the midst of you all.” Then you will know that the Lord who rules over all has sent me to you.

Zechariah 5:4

Context
5:4 “I will send it out,” says the Lord who rules over all, “and it will enter the house of the thief and of the person who swears falsely in my name. It will land in the middle of his house and destroy both timber and stones.”

Zechariah 8:12

Context
8:12 ‘for there will be a peaceful time of sowing, the vine will produce its fruit and the ground its yield, and the skies 3  will rain down dew. Then I will allow the remnant of my people to possess all these things.

Zechariah 10:6

Context

10:6 “I (says the Lord) will strengthen the kingdom 4  of Judah and deliver the people of Joseph 5  and will bring them back 6  because of my compassion for them. They will be as though I had never rejected them, for I am the Lord their God and therefore I will hear them.

1 tn Heb “on that day.” The descriptive phrase “of salvation” has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

2 tc The LXX and Syriac have the 3rd person masculine singular suffix in both places (“his people” and “he will settle”; cf. NAB, TEV) in order to avoid the Lord’s speaking of himself in the third person. Such resort is unnecessary, however, in light of the common shifting of person in Hebrew narrative (cf. 3:2).

3 tn Or “the heavens” (so KJV, NAB, NIV). The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heavens” or “skies” depending on the context.

4 tn Heb “the house.”

5 tn Or “the kingdom of Israel”; Heb “the house of Joseph.”

sn Joseph is mentioned here instead of the usual Israel (but see 2 Sam 19:20; Ps 78:67; 80:1; 81:5; Ezek 37:16; Amos 5:6, 15; 6:6) because of the exodus motif that follows in vv. 8-11.

6 tc The anomalous MT reading וְחוֹשְׁבוֹתִים (vÿkhoshÿvotim) should probably be וַהֲשִׁי בוֹתִם (vahashi votim), the Hiphil perfect consecutive of שׁוּב (shuv), “return” (cf. Jer 12:15).
