          DASV: Zechariah 2

1 I lifted up my eyes, and looked, and there was a man with
a measuring line in his hand.
2 Then I asked, "Where are you going?" He replied, "To measure
Jerusalem, to see how wide and long it is."
3 Then the angel who was talking with me went out, and
another angel went out to meet him,
4 and told him, "Run, tell this young man, 'Jerusalem will
be inhabited like unwalled villages, because there will be
so many people and cattle in it.
5 For I myself, will be a wall of fire surrounding her,' says
the LORD, 'and I will be the glory in her midst.'"
6 "Heads up! Heads up! Flee from the land of the north," says
the LORD; "for I have scattered you abroad like the four winds
of heaven," says the LORD.
7 Heads up Zion! Escape, you who live with the daughter of
Babylon."
8 For this is what the LORD of hosts says: "After his glory
sent me against the nations that plundered you--for the one
who touches you, touches the apple of his eye.
9 For, look, I will shake my fist against them, and they will
be plundered by their own slaves. Then you will know that the
LORD of hosts has sent me.
10 Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion; for look, I will come
and I will live in your midst," says the LORD.
11 "Many nations will join themselves to the LORD on that day,
and 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.
12 The LORD will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land,
and will again choose Jerusalem.
13 All humanity, be silent before the LORD; for he has roused
himself out of his holy dwelling place."
