Vision of the Measuring Line
1 AND I lifted up mine eyes, and saw: and lo a man, and in his hand a cord of measurers.📜💬📚
2 And I said: Whither goest thou? And he said to me: To measure Jerusalem, and to see how great the breadth thereof is, and how great the length thereof.📜💬📚
3 And behold the Angel that spake in me, came forth, and an other Angel went out to meet him.📜💬📚
4 And he said to him: Run, speak to this young man saying: Without wall shall Jerusalem be inhabited for the multitude of men, and of beasts in the midst thereof.📜💬📚
5 And I will be to it, saith our Lord, a wall of fire round about: and I will be in glory in the midst thereof.📜💬📚
Redemption of Zion
6 O fly ye out of the land of the North, saith our Lord, because into the four winds of heaven have I dispersed you, saith our Lord.📜💬📚
7 O Sion, fly thou that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon.:📜💬📚
8 because thus saith the Lord of hosts: After glory he sent me to the nations, that have spoiled you: for he that shall touch you, toucheth the apple of mine eye:📜💬📚
9 because lo I lift up my hand upon them, and they shall be a prey to those that served them: and you shall know that the Lord of hosts sent me.📜💬📚
10 Praise, and rejoice o daughter of Sion: because lo I come, & will dwell in the midst of thee, saith our Lord.📜💬📚
11 And many nations shall be joined to our Lord in that day, and they shall be my people, and I will dwell in the midst of thee: and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me to thee.📜💬📚
12 And our Lord will possess Juda his portion in the sanctified land: and he will yet choose Jerusalem.📜💬📚
13 Let all flesh be silent at the presence of our Lord: because he is risen up out of his holy habitation.📜💬📚
