The Key Word — יִפָּלֵ֗א, yi.pa.Le'generated
The verb פָּלָא (pala') means to wonder or be amazed, often in the context of something extraordinary or difficult. The parsing indicates it is in the Niphal form, suggesting a passive or reflexive sense, meaning that the subject experiences the wonder rather than performing it. This word captures the essence of God's miraculous capabilities.
In this verse, יִפָּלֵ֗א expresses the idea that what seems difficult or impossible to the people is not so in the eyes of God. The use of this verb emphasizes the contrast between human perception and divine ability.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The translations of this verse generally agree on the meaning, with all versions acknowledging the LORD's declaration about what is possible.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main finite verb is אָמַר, he says, which introduces the LORD's declaration. The structure includes a conditional clause introduced by כִּי, if, leading into the assertion about what is impossible in the eyes of the remnant.
This sentence employs a complex structure with multiple noun phrases and prepositional phrases, emphasizing the contrast between the people's perspective and God's perspective on the situation.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates יִפָּלֵ֗א as ἀδυνατήσει, which means 'it will be impossible'. This choice highlights the theme of divine power versus human limitations, reinforcing the message that God's capabilities far exceed human understanding.
The use of ἀδυνατήσει suggests a more absolute sense of impossibility, emphasizing that what is deemed impossible by the remnant is not so for God.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Zechariah 8:6 shows the LORD of Hosts telling the people that what seems impossible to them is not impossible for Him. He reassures them that He can accomplish what they doubt. This message is meant to encourage the remnant of Israel as they face challenges in their restoration.

The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places. Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'

pe'-p'-l: In English Versions of the Bible represents something over a dozen Hebrew and Greek words. Of these, in the Old Testament, `am, is overwhelmingly the most common (about 2,000 times), with le'om, and goy, next in order; but the various Hebrew words are used with very little or no difference in force (e.g. Pr 14:28; but, on the other hand, in Ps 44 contrast verses 12 and 14). Of the changes introduced by the Revised Version (British and American) the only one of significance (cited explicitly in the Preface to the English Revised Version) is the frequent use of the plural "peoples" (strangely avoided in the King James Version except Re 10:11; 17:15), where other nations than Israel are in question. So, for instance, in Ps…

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…
יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God. The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places. Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'
יהוה c. 6823 i.e. יַהְוֶה n.pr.dei Yahweh, the proper name of the God of Israel—(1. MT יְהֹוָה 6518 (Qr אֲדֹנָי), or יֱהֹוִה 305 (Qr אֱלֹהִים) 2. Many recent scholars explain יַהְוֶה as Hiph. of הוה (= היה) the one bringing into being, life-giver)
יהוה is not used by E in Gn, but is given Ex 3:12-15 as the name of the God who revealed Himself to Moses at Horeb
יהוה is used with אלהים and suffixes, especially in D
the phrase † אֲנִי יהוה is noteworthy
יהוה is also used with several predicates, to form sacred names of holy places of Yahweh
