16 Then those who feared the Lord
spoke to one another, and the Lord gave
attention and heard [it], and a book of
remembrance was written before Him for those who
fear the Lord and who esteem His name.
17 "They will be
Mine," says the Lord of hosts, "on
the day that I prepare [My] own possession, and I
will spare them as a man spares his own
son who serves him."
