Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1Then I lifted up my eyes and saw a man with a measuring line in his hand.
1Καὶ ᾖρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου, καὶ ἴδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ τέσσαρα κέρατα.
2“Where are you going?” I asked. “To measure Jerusalem,” he replied, “and to determine its width and length.”
2Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον τὸν λαλοῦντα ἐν ἐμοὶ, τί ἐστι ταῦτα κύριε; καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, ταῦτα τὰ κέρατα τὰ διασκορπίσαντα τὸν Ἰούδαν, καὶ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ Ἱερουσαλήμ.
3Then the angel who was speaking with me went out, and another angel came out to meet him
3Καὶ ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος τέσσαρας τέκτονας.
4and said to him, “Run and tell that young man: ‘Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the multitude of men and livestock within it.
4Καὶ εἶπα, τί οὗτοι ἔρχονται ποιῆσαι; καὶ εἶπε ταῦτα τὰ κέρατα τὰ διασκορπίσαντα τὸν Ἰούδα καὶ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ κατέαξαν, καὶ οὐδεὶς αὐτῶν ᾖρε κεφαλήν· καὶ ἐξήλθοσαν οὗτοι τοῦ ὀξῦναι αὐτὰ εἰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν, τὰ τέσσαρα κέρατα, τὰ ἔθνη τὰ ἐπαιρόμενα κέρας ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν Κυρίου, τοῦ διασκορπίσαι αὐτήν.
5For I will be a wall of fire around it, declares the LORD, and I will be the glory within it.’”
5Καὶ ᾖρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου, καὶ ἴδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ, καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ σχοινίον γεωμετρικόν.
6“Get up! Get up! Flee from the land of the north,” declares the LORD, “for I have scattered you like the four winds of heaven,” declares the LORD.
6Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς αὐτόν, ποῦ σὺ πορεύῃ; καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, διαμετρῆσαι τὴν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, τοῦ ἰδεῖν πηλίκον τὸ πλάτος αὐτῆς ἐστι, καὶ πηλίκον τὸ μῆκος.
7“Get up, O Zion! Escape, you who dwell with the Daughter of Babylon!”
7Καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ ἄγγελος ὁ λαλῶν ἐν ἐμοὶ εἱστήκει, καὶ ἄγγελος ἕτερος ἐξεπορεύετο εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ,
8For this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “After His Glory has sent Me against the nations that have plundered you—for whoever touches you touches the apple of His eye—
8καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν, λέγων, δράμε, καὶ λάλησον πρὸς τὸν νεανίαν ἐκεῖνον, λέγων, Κατακάρπως κατοικηθήσεται Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἀπὸ πλήθους ἀνθρώπων καὶ κτηνῶν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς·
9I will surely wave My hand over them, so that they will become plunder for their own servants. Then you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent Me.”
9καὶ ἐγὼ ἔσομαι αὐτῇ, λέγει Κύριος, τεῖχος πυρὸς κυκλόθεν, καὶ εἰς δόξαν ἔσομαι ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς.
10“Shout for joy and be glad, O Daughter of Zion, for I am coming to dwell among you,” declares the LORD.
10Ὢ ὢ φεύγετε ἀπὸ γῆς Βοῤῥᾶ, λέγει Κύριος· διότι ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ἀνέμων τοῦ οὐρανοῦ συνάξω ὑμᾶς, λέγει Κύριος,
11“On that day many nations will join themselves to the LORD, and they will become My people. I will dwell among you, and you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent Me to you.
11εἰς Σιὼν, ἀνασώζεσθε οἱ κατοικοῦντες θυγατέρα Βαβυλῶνος.
12And the LORD will take possession of Judah as His portion in the Holy Land, and He will once again choose Jerusalem.
12Διότι τάδε λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ, ὀπίσω δόξης ἀπέσταλκέ με ἐπὶ τὰ ἔθνη τὰ σκυλεύσαντα ὑμᾶς, διότι ὁ ἁπτόμενος ὑμῶν ὡς ὁ ἁπτόμενος τῆς κόρης τοῦ ὀφθαλμοῦ αὐτοῦ.
13Be silent before the LORD, all people, for He has roused Himself from His holy dwelling.”
13Διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπιφέρω τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἔσονται σκῦλα τοῖς δουλεύουσιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ γνώσεσθε ὅτι Κύριος παντοκράτωρ ἀπέσταλκέ με.
