Zechariah 2

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

Et levavi oculos meos, et vidi: et ecce vir, et in manu eius funiculus mensorum.

2 And I said, “Where are you going?” And he said to me, “To measure Jerusalem, so that I may see how great its width and how great its length may be.”

Et dixi: Quo tu vadis? Et dixit ad me: Ut metiar Ierusalem, et videam quanta sit latitudo eius, et quanta longitudo eius.

3 And behold, the angel, who had been speaking with me, departed, and another angel went out to meet him.

Et ecce angelus, qui loquebatur in me, egrediebatur, et angelus alius egrediebatur in occursum eius.

4 And he said to him: Hurry, speak to this young man, saying: Jerusalem will be inhabited without walls, because of the multitude of men and beasts of burden in its midst.

Et dixit ad eum: Curre, loquere ad puerum istum, dicens: Absque muro habitabitur Ierusalem prae multitudine hominum, et iumentorum in medio eius.

5 And I will be to it, says the Lord, a wall of fire all around. And in glory, I will be in its midst.

Et ego ero ei, ait Dominus, murus ignis in circuitu: et in gloria ero in medio eius.

6 O, O flee from the land of the North, says the Lord, for I have scattered you into the four winds of heaven, says the Lord.

O, o fugite de terra Aquilonis, dicit Dominus: quoniam in quattuor ventos caeli dispersi vos, dicit Dominus.

7 O Zion, flee, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.

O Sion, fuge quae habitas apud filiam Babylonis:

8 For thus says the Lord of hosts: After the glory, he has sent me to the Gentiles, which have despoiled you. For he who touches you, touches the pupil of my eye.

quia haec dicit Dominus exercituum: Post gloriam misit me ad gentes, quae spoliaverunt vos: qui enim tetigerit vos, tangit pupillam oculi mei:

9 For behold, I lift up my hand over them, and they will be a prey to those who had served them. And you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me.

quia ecce ego levo manum meam super eos, et erunt praedae his, qui serviebant sibi: et cognoscetis quia Dominus exercituum misit me.

10 Sing praise and rejoice, daughter of Zion. For behold, I approach, and I will dwell in your midst, says the Lord.

Lauda, et laetare filia Sion: quia ecce ego venio, et habitabo in medio tui, ait Dominus.

11 And many nations will be joined to the Lord in that day, and they will be my people, and I will dwell in your midst. And you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you.

Et applicabuntur Gentes multae ad Dominum in die illa, et erunt mihi in populum, et habitabo in medio tui: et scies quia Dominus exercituum misit me ad te.

12 And the Lord will possess his portion, Judah, in the sanctified land, and still he will single out Jerusalem.

Et possidebit Dominus Iuda partem suam in terra sanctificata: et eliget adhuc Ierusalem.

13 Let all flesh be silent before the face of the Lord: for he has arisen from his holy dwelling place.

Sileat omnis caro a facie Domini: quia consurrexit de habitaculo sancto suo.
