LITV - Zechariah - 2

2:1  I lifted up my eyes again and looked, and, behold, A man, and a measuring line in his hand!

2:2  And I said, Where are you going? And he said to me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its breadth and what its length.

2:3  And, behold, the angel who was talking with me went out, and another angel went out to meet him,

2:4  and said to him, Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be inhabited, as towns without walls, for the multitude of men and livestock in her midst.

2:5  And I will be to her a wall of fire all around, and I will be for glory in her midst, declares Jehovah.

2:6  Ho! Ho! Flee then from the land of the north, says Jehovah. For I have scattered you as the four winds of the heavens, declares Jehovah.

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

2:8  For so says Jehovah of hosts: He has sent Me after glory, to the nations who plundered you; for he who touches you touches the pupil of His eye.

2:9  For, behold, I will shake My hand over them, and they shall be a prize for their servants. And you shall know that Jehovah has sent Me.

2:10  Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion. For, lo, I come; and I will dwell among you, says Jehovah.

2:11  And many nations shall be joined to Jehovah in that day, and they shall be My people. And I will dwell among you; and you shall know that Jehovah of hosts has sent Me to you.

2:12  And Jehovah shall possess Judah, His portion in the holy land, and He shall again choose Jerusalem.

2:13  All flesh, be silent before Jehovah. For He is raised up out of His holy habitation.
