Yahweh's Promise To Jerusalem

15 So I have turned back, I have purposed, in these days, To do good with Jerusalem, And with the house of Judah -- fear not! 16 These are the things that ye do: Speak ye truth each with his neighbour, Truth and peaceful judgment judge in your gates, 17 And each the evil of his neighbour ye do not devise in your heart, And a false oath ye do not love, For all these are things that I have hated, An affirmation of Jehovah.'
