OTNT

Zech 2


2:1 Then I looked up–and there before me was a man with a measuring line in his hand!

2:2 I asked, “Where are you going?” He answered me, “To measure Jerusalem, to find out how wide and how long it is.”

2:3 Then the angel who was speaking to me left, and another angel came to meet him

2:4 and said to him: “Run, tell that young man, ‘Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the great number of men and livestock in it.

2:5 And I myself will be a wall of fire around it,’ declares the LORD, ‘and I will be its glory within.’

2:6 “Come! Come! Flee from the land of the north,” declares the LORD, “for I have scattered you to the four winds of heaven,” declares the LORD.

2:7 “Come, O Zion! Escape, you who live in the Daughter of Babylon!”

2:8 For this is what the LORD Almighty says: “After he has honored me and has sent me against the nations that have plundered you–for whoever touches you touches the apple of his eye–

2:9 I will surely raise my hand against them so that their slaves will plunder them. Then you will know that the LORD Almighty has sent me.

2:10 “Shout and be glad, O Daughter of Zion. For I am coming, and I will live among you,” declares the LORD.

2:11 “Many nations will be joined with the LORD in that day and will become my people. I will live among you and you will know that the LORD Almighty has sent me to you.

2:12 The LORD will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land and will again choose Jerusalem.

2:13 Be still before the LORD, all mankind, because he has roused himself from his holy dwelling.”

2:1 Then I lifted up my eyes and I looked, and there was a man, and in His hand was a measuring line.

2:2 And I said, Where are You going? And He said to me, To measure Jerusalem; to see how great its breadth is and how great its length is.

2:3 Then at that point the angel who spoke with me went forth and another angel came forth to meet him.

2:4 And he said to him, Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem will lie as an open region due to the multitude of men and cattle within it,

2:5 For I will be her wall of fire round about, declares Jehovah, and I will be the glory within her.

2:6 Ho! Ho! Flee from the land of the north, declares Jehovah, for I have spread you out like the four winds of the heavens, declares Jehovah.

2:7 Ho, Zion! Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.

2:8 For thus says Jehovah of hosts, After the glory He has sent Me against the nations who plunder you; for he who touches you touches the pupil of His eye.

2:9 For I am now waving My hand over them, and they will be plunder for those who served them; and you will know that Jehovah of hosts has sent Me.

2:10 Give a ringing shout and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, for now I am coming, and I will dwell in your midst, declares Jehovah.

2:11 And many nations will join themselves to Jehovah in that day and will become My people; and I will dwell in your midst, and you will know that Jehovah of hosts has sent Me to you.

2:12 And Jehovah will inherit Judah as His portion upon the holy land, and He will again choose Jerusalem.

2:13 Hush, all flesh, before Jehovah! For He is roused up from His holy habitation.
