1And I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold a man, with a measuring line in his hand.
1ΚΑΙ ᾖρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ τέσσαρα κέρατα.
2And I said: Whither goest thou? and he said to me: To measure Jerusalem, and to see how great is the breadth thereof, and how great the length thereof.
2καὶ εἶπα πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον τὸν λαλοῦντα ἐν ἐμοί· τί ἐστι ταῦτα, Κύριε; καὶ εἶπε πρός με· ταῦτα τὰ κέρατα τὰ διασκορπίσαντα τὸν Ἰούδαν καὶ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ Ἱερουσαλήμ.
3And behold the angel that spoke in me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him.
3καὶ ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος τέσσαρας τέκτονας.
4And he said to him: Run, speak to this young man, saying: Jerusalem shall be inhabited without walls, by reason of the multitude of men, and of the beasts in the midst thereof.
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.
5And I will be to it, saith the Lord, a wall of fire round about: and I will be in glory in the midst thereof.
5Καὶ ᾖρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ σχοινίον γεωμετρικόν.
6O, O flee ye out of the land of the north, saith the Lord, for I have scattered you into the four winds of heaven, saith the Lord.
6καὶ εἶπα πρὸς αὐτόν· ποῦ σὺ πορεύῃ; καὶ εἶπε πρός με· διαμετρῆσαι τὴν Ἱερουσαλὴμ τοῦ ἰδεῖν πηλίκον τὸ πλάτος αὐτῆς ἐστι καὶ πηλίκον τὸ μῆκος.
7O Sion, flee, thou that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon:
7καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ ἄγγελος ὁ λαλῶν ἐν ἐμοὶ εἱστήκει, καὶ ἄγγελος ἕτερος ἐξεπορεύετο εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ.
8For thus saith the Lord of hosts: After the glory he hath sent me to the nations that have robbed you: for he that toucheth you, toucheth the apple of my 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·
9For behold 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.
9καὶ ἐγὼ ἔσομαι αὐτῇ, λέγει Κύριος, τεῖχος πυρὸς κυκλόθεν καὶ εἰς δόξαν ἔσομαι ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς.
10Sing praise, and rejoice, O daughter of Sion: for behold I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee: saith the Lord.
10ὦ ὦ φεύγετε ἀπὸ γῆς Βορρᾶ, λέγει Κύριος· διότι ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ἀνέμων τοῦ οὐρανοῦ συνάξω ὑμᾶς, λέγει Κύριος·
11And many nations shall be joined to the 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.
11εἰς Σιὼν ἀνασώζεσθε οἱ κατοικοῦντες θυγατέρα Βαβυλῶνος.
12And the Lord shall possess Juda his portion in the sanctified land: and he shall yet 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.
13Let all flesh be silent at the presence of the Lord: for he is risen up out of his. holy habitation.
13διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπιφέρω τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπ᾿ αὐτούς, καὶ ἔσονται σκῦλα τοῖς δουλεύουσιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ γνώσεσθε ὅτι Κύριος παντοκράτωρ ἀπέσταλκέ με.
