13 In that case you will prove successful+ if you take care to carry out the regulations+ and the judicial decisions+ that Jehovah commanded+ Moses respecting Israel. Be courageous and strong.+ Do not be afraid+ nor be terrified.+

4 Say to those who are anxious at heart:+ “Be strong.+ Do not be afraid.+ Look! YOUR own God will come with vengeance+ itself, God even with a repayment.+ He himself will come and save YOU people.”+

4 “‘But now be strong, O Ze·rubʹba·bel,’ is the utterance of Jehovah, ‘and be strong,+ O Joshua the son of Je·hozʹa·dak the high priest.’

“‘And be strong, all YOU people of the land,’* is the utterance of Jehovah, ‘and work.’+

“‘For I am with YOU people,’+ is the utterance of Jehovah of armies.
