¹I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand.

¹In povzdignem oči in vidim, in glej: mož z mersko vrvjo v roki.

²Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof.

²In rečem: Kam greš? In mi reče: Da zmerim Jeruzalem, da vidim, kolika je širjava njegova in kolika dolžina.

³And, behold, the angel that talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,

³In glej, angel, ki je govoril z menoj, stopi ven, in drugi angel pride njemu naproti.

⁴And said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the multitude of men and cattle therein:

⁴In mu reče: Teci, govóri temu mladeniču in véli: V Jeruzalemu bodo stanovali brez obzidja zavoljo množine ljudi in živine, ki bode v njem.

⁵For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.

⁵Jaz pa, govori GOSPOD, mu bodem ognjen zid kroginkrog in v slavo mu bodem sredi njega.

⁶Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith the LORD: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven, saith the LORD.

⁶Oh, oh, bežite iz severne dežele! govori GOSPOD; kajti na četvere vetrove neba sem vas razkropil, govori GOSPOD.

⁷Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon.

⁷Oh, Sion, béži, ki prebivaš pri babilonski hčeri!

⁸For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.

⁸Kajti tako pravi GOSPOD nad vojskami: Da prejmem slavo, me je poslal k poganskim narodom, ki so vas plenili; zakaj kdor se vas dotakne, se dotakne punčice očesa njegovega.

⁹For, behold, I will shake mine hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to their servants: and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me.

⁹Kajti, glej, jaz zavihtim roko nad njimi, in bodo v plen tistim, ki so jim sužnjevali; in spoznate, da me je poslal GOSPOD nad vojskami.

¹⁰Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD.

¹⁰Glasno poj in veséli se, hči sionska! zakaj jaz, glej, prihajam in bom prebival sredi tebe, govori GOSPOD.

¹¹And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and 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 unto thee.

¹¹In tisti dan se pridruži veliko poganskih narodov h GOSPODU in bodo meni za ljudstvo; v tvoji sredi pa bom prebival, in spoznaš, da me je GOSPOD nad vojskami poslal k tebi.

¹²And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land, and shall choose Jerusalem again.

¹²In GOSPOD prejme v last Judo kot svoj delež v sveti zemlji in zopet si izvoli Jeruzalem.Naj molči vse meso pred GOSPODOM! kajti vstal je iz prebivališča svetosti svoje.

¹³Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for he is raised up out of his holy habitation.

¹³Naj molči vse meso pred GOSPODOM! kajti vstal je iz prebivališča svetosti svoje.
