Zechariah 2
1And I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man, and in his hand a measuring line. 2And I said to him, Whither go you? And he said to me, To measure Jerusalem, to see whatis the breadth of it, and what is the length of it. 3And, behold, the angel that spoke with me stoodby, and another angel went forth to meet him, 4and spoke to him, saying, Run and speak to that young man, saying, Jerusalem shall befully inhabited by reason of the abundance of men and cattle in the midst of her. 5And I will be to her, says the Lord, a wall of fire round about, and I will be for a gloryin the midst of her. 6Ho, ho, flee from the land of the north, says the Lord: for I will gather you from thefour winds of heaven, says the Lord, 7even to Sion: deliver yourselves, you⌃ that dwellwith the daughter of Babylon. 8For thus says the Lord Almighty; After the glory has he sent me to the nations that spoiledyou: for he that touches you is as one that touches the apple of his eye. 9For, behold, I bring my hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to them that serve them:and you⌃ shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me. 10Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Sion: for, behold, I come, and will dwell in the midstof you, says the Lord. 11And many nations shall flee for refuge to the Lord in that day, and they shall be fora people to him, and they shall dwell in the midst of you: and you shall know that the Lord Almighty hassent me to you. 12And the Lord shall inherit Juda his portion in the holyland, and he will yet choose Jerusalem. 13Let all flesh fear before the Lord: for he has risen up from his holy clouds.
