1I lift up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold, a man with a measuring line in his hand.
2Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof.
3And behold, the angel that talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,
4and said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying,
5For I, saith the Lord, will be unto her a wall of fire round about,
6Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith the Lord:
7Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon.
8For thus saith the Lord of hosts;
9For behold, I will shake mine hand upon them,
10Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion:
11And many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day,
12And the Lord shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land,
13Be silent, O all flesh, before the Lord:
