\v 1 Next I lifted up my eyes and saw a man with a measuring line in his hand.
|
|
\v 2 I said, "Where are you going?" So he said to me, "To measure Jerusalem, to determine its width and length."
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 3 Then the angel that had talked with me went away, and another angel went out to meet him.
|
|
\v 4 The second angel said to him, "Run and speak to that young man; say,
|
|
\q 'Jerusalem will sit in the open country
|
|
\q because of the multitudes of men and beasts within her.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 5 For I'—this is Yahweh's declaration—'will become for her a wall of fire around her,
|
|
\q and I will be the glory in her midst.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 6 Ho! Ho! Flee from the land of the north'—this is Yahweh's declaration—
|
|
\q 'for I have scattered you like the four winds of the skies!' This is Yahweh's declaration—
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 7 'Ho! Escape to Zion, you who live with the daughter of Babylon!'"
|
|
\q
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 8 For after Yahweh of hosts honored me and sent me against the nations that plundered you—
|
|
\q for whoever touches you, touches the apple of God's eye!—after Yahweh did this, he said,
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 "I myself will shake my hand over them, and they will be plunder for their slaves."
|
|
\q Then you will know that Yahweh of hosts has sent me.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 10 "Sing for joy, daughter of Zion,
|
|
\q for I myself am about to come and encamp among you!—this is Yahweh's declaration."
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 11 Then great nations will join themselves to Yahweh in that day. He says, "Then you will become my people;
|
|
\q for I will encamp in the midst of you." And you will know that Yahweh of hosts has sent me to you.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 12 For Yahweh will inherit Judah as his rightful possession in the holy land
|
|
\q and will once again choose Jerusalem for himself.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 13 Be silent, all flesh, before Yahweh, for he has been roused from out of the heavens!
