Zechariah 2
1 And I lift up my eyes, and look, and behold, a man, and in his hand a measuring line.
Et levavi oculos meos, et vidi: et ecce vir, et in manu eius funiculus mensorum.
2 And I say, “To where are you going?” And he says to me, “To measure Jerusalem, to see how much [is] its breadth and how much its length.”
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 messenger who is speaking with me is going out, and another messenger is going out to meet him,
Et ecce angelus, qui loquebatur in me, egrediebatur, et angelus alius egrediebatur in occursum eius.
4 and he says to him, “Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem is inhabited [as] open places, From the abundance of man and beast in her midst.
Et dixit ad eum: Curre, loquere ad puerum istum, dicens: Absque muro habitabitur Ierusalem præ multitudine hominum, et iumentorum in medio eius.
5 And I am to her—a declaration of YHWH—A wall of fire all around, And I am for glory in her midst.
Et ego ero ei, ait Dominus, murus ignis in circuitu: et in gloria ero in medio eius.
6 Behold, and flee from the land of the north, A declaration of YHWH, For as the four winds of the heavens, I have spread you abroad, A declaration of YHWH.
O, o fugite de terra Aquilonis, dicit Dominus: quoniam in quattuor ventos cæli dispersi vos, dicit Dominus.
7 Behold, Zion, be delivered who are dwelling [with] the daughter of Babylon.
O Sion, fuge quæ habitas apud filiam Babylonis:
8 For thus said YHWH of Hosts: He has sent Me after glory to the nations who are spoiling you, For he who is coming against you, Is coming against the pupil of His eye.
quia hæc dicit Dominus exercituum: Post gloriam misit me ad gentes, quæ spoliaverunt vos: qui enim tetigerit vos, tangit pupillam oculi mei:
9 For behold, I am waving My hand against them, And they have been a spoil to their servants. And you have known that YHWH of Hosts has sent Me.
quia ecce ego levo manum meam super eos, et erunt prædæ his, qui serviebant sibi: et cognoscetis quia Dominus exercituum misit me.
10 Sing, and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, For behold, I am coming, and have dwelt in your midst, A declaration of YHWH.
Lauda, et lætare filia Sion: quia ecce ego venio, et habitabo in medio tui, ait Dominus.
11 And many nations have been joined to YHWH in that day, And they have been to Me for a people, And I have dwelt in your midst, And you have known that YHWH of Hosts has sent Me to you.
Et applicabuntur Gentes multæ 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 YHWH has inherited Judah, His portion on the holy ground, And He has fixed again on Jerusalem.
Et possidebit Dominus Iudam partem suam in terra sanctificata: et eliget adhuc Ierusalem.
13 Hush, all flesh, because of YHWH, For He has been roused up from His holy habitation!”
Sileat omnis caro a facie Domini: quia consurrexit de habitaculo sancto suo.
