Zechariah 2 (WEBP)

[1] I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, a man with a measuring line in his hand.
[2] Then I asked, “Where are you going?” He said to me, “To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its width and what is its length.”
[3] Behold, the angel who talked with me went out, and another angel went out to meet him,
[4] 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 livestock in it.
[5] For I,’ says Yahweh, ‘will be to her a wall of fire around it, and I will be the glory in the middle of her.
[6] 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.
[7] ‘Come, Zion! Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.’
[8] For Yahweh of Armies says: ‘For honor he has sent me to the nations which plundered you; for he who touches you touches the apple of his eye.
[9] For, behold, I will shake my hand over them, and they will be a plunder to those who served them; and you will know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me.
[10] Sing and rejoice, daughter of Zion! For behold, I come and I will dwell within you,’ says Yahweh.
[11] Many nations shall join themselves to Yahweh in that day, and shall be my people; and I will dwell among you, and you shall know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me to you.
[12] Yahweh will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land, and will again choose Jerusalem.
[13] Be silent, all flesh, before Yahweh; for he has roused himself from his holy habitation!”

[1] [2:5] και ηρα τους οφθαλμους μου και ειδον και ιδου ανηρ και εν τη χειρι αυτου σχοινιον γεωμετρικον
[2] [2:6] και ειπα προς αυτον που συ πορευη και ειπεν προς με διαμετρησαι την ιερουσαλημ του ιδειν πηλικον το πλατος αυτης εστιν και πηλικον το μηκος
[3] [2:7] και ιδου ο αγγελος ο λαλων εν εμοι ειστηκει και αγγελος ετερος εξεπορευετο εις συναντησιν αυτω
[4] [2:8] και ειπεν προς αυτον λεγων δραμε και λαλησον προς τον νεανιαν εκεινον λεγων κατακαρπως κατοικηθησεται ιερουσαλημ απο πληθους ανθρωπων και κτηνων εν μεσω αυτης
[5] [2:9] και εγω εσομαι αυτη λεγει κυριος τειχος πυρος κυκλοθεν και εις δοξαν εσομαι εν μεσω αυτης
[6] [2:10] ω ω φευγετε απο γης βορρα λεγει κυριος διοτι εκ των τεσσαρων ανεμων του ουρανου συναξω υμας λεγει κυριος
[7] [2:11] εις σιων ανασωζεσθε οι κατοικουντες θυγατερα βαβυλωνος
[8] [2:12] διοτι ταδε λεγει κυριος παντοκρατωρ οπισω δοξης απεσταλκεν με επι τα εθνη τα σκυλευσαντα υμας διοτι ο απτομενος υμων ως απτομενος της κορης του οφθαλμου αυτου
[9] [2:13] διοτι ιδου εγω επιφερω την χειρα μου επ αυτους και εσονται σκυλα τοις δουλευουσιν αυτοις και γνωσεσθε διοτι κυριος παντοκρατωρ απεσταλκεν με
[10] [2:14] τερπου και ευφραινου θυγατερ σιων διοτι ιδου εγω ερχομαι και κατασκηνωσω εν μεσω σου λεγει κυριος
[11] [2:15] και καταφευξονται εθνη πολλα επι τον κυριον εν τη ημερα εκεινη και εσονται αυτω εις λαον και κατασκηνωσουσιν εν μεσω σου και επιγνωση οτι κυριος παντοκρατωρ εξαπεσταλκεν με προς σε
[12] [2:16] και κατακληρονομησει κυριος τον ιουδαν την μεριδα αυτου επι την γην την αγιαν και αιρετιει ετι την ιερουσαλημ
[13] [2:17] ευλαβεισθω πασα σαρξ απο προσωπου κυριου διοτι εξεγηγερται εκ νεφελων αγιων αυτου
