Καὶ ἦρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου καὶ εἶδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ σχοινίον γεωμετρικόν.

καὶ εἶπα πρὸς αὐτόν Ποῦ σὺ πορεύῃς; καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς μέ Διαμετρῆσαι τὴν Ἰερουσαλήμ, τοῦ ἰδεῖν πηλίκον τὸ πλάτος αὐτῆς ἐστιν καὶ πηλίκον τὸ μῆκος.

καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ ἅγγελος ὁ λαλῶν ἐν ἐμοὶ ἱστήκει, καὶ ἄγγελος ἕτερος ἐξεπορεύετο εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ,

καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν λέγων Δράμε καὶ λάλησον πρὸς τὸν νεανίαν ἐκεῖνον λέγων Κατακάρπαως κατοικηθήσεται Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἀπὸ πλήθους ἀνθρώπων κμὶ κτηνῶν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς·

καὶ ἐγὼ ἔσομαι αὐτῇ, λέγει Κύριος. τεῖχος πυρὸς κυκλόθεν, καὶ εἰς δόξαν ἔσομαι ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς.

ὢ ὢ φεύγετε ἀπὸ γῆς βορρᾶ, λέγει Κύριος, διότι ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ἀνέμων τοῦ οὐρανοῦ συνάξω ὑμᾶς, λέγει Κύριος·

εἰς Σειὼν ἀνασώζεσθε, οἱ κατοικοῦντες θυγατέρα Βαβυλῶνος.

διότι τάδε λέγει Κύριος Παντοκράτωρ Οπίσω δόξης ἀπέσταλκέν με ἐπὶ τὰ ἔθνη τὰ σκυλεύσαντα ὑμᾶς, διότι ὁ ἁπτόμενος ὑμῶν ὡς ἁπτόμενος τῆς κόρης τοῦ ὀφθαλμοῦ αὐτοῦ·

διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπιφέρω τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπʼ αὐτούς, καὶ ἔσονται σκῦλα τοῖς δουλεύουσιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ γνώσεσθε ὅτι Κύριος Παντοκράτωρ ἀπέσταλκέν με.

τέρπου καὶ εὐφραίνου, θύγατερ Σειών, διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ¹² ἔρχομαι καὶ κατασκηνώσω ἐν μέσῳ σου, λέγει Κύριος.

καὶ ³ καταφεύξονται ἔθνη πολλὰ ἐπὶ τὸν κύριον ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ ἔσονται αὐτῷ εἰς λαόν, καὶ κατασκηνώσουσιν ἐν μέσῳ σου, καὶ ἐπιγνώσῃ ὅτι Κύριος Παντοκράτωρ ἐξαπέσταλκέν με πρὸς σέ.

καὶ κατακληρονομήσει Κύριος τὸν Ἰούδαν, τῇ μερίδι αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν τὴν ἁγίαν, καὶ αἱρετιεῖ ἔτι τὴν Ἰερουσαλήμ.

εὐλαβείσθω πᾶσα σὰρξ ἀπὸ προσώπου Κυρίου, ὅτι ἐξεγήγερται ἐκ νεφελῶν ἁγίων αὐτοῦ.

Zechariah Perseus (World English Bible. Revision of the American Standard Version of 1901. Rainbow Missions, Inc., 2000-2024.) — 2 focus

I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and, behold, a man with a measuring line in his hand.

Then I asked, Where are you going? He said to me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its breadth and what is its length.

Behold, the angel who talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,

and said to him, Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem will be inhabited as villages without walls, because of the multitude of men and cattle in it.

For I, says Yahweh, will be to her a wall of fire around it, and I will be the glory in the midst of her.

Come! Come! Flee from the land of the north, says Yahweh; for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the sky, says Yahweh.

Come, Zion! Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.

For thus says Yahweh of hosts: For honor he has sent me to the nations which plundered you; for he who touches you touches the apple of his eye.

For, behold, I will shake my hand over them, and they will be a spoil to those who served them; and you will know that Yahweh of Hosts has sent me.

Sing and rejoice, daughter of Zion; for, behold, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of you, says Yahweh.

Many nations shall join themselves to Yahweh in that day, and shall be my people; and I will dwell in the midst of you, and you shall know that Yahweh of Hosts has sent me to you.

Yahweh will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land, and will again choose Jerusalem.

Be silent, all flesh, before Yahweh; for he has roused himself from his holy habitation!
