Zechariah 2:4-11 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

4. and said to him: ‘Run, tell that young man, “Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the great number of people and animals in it.

5. And I myself will be a wall of fire around it,” declares the Lord, “and I will be its glory within.”

6. ‘Come! Come! Flee from the land of the north,’ declares the Lord, ‘for I have scattered you to the four winds of heaven,’ declares the Lord.

7. ‘Come, Zion! Escape, you who live in Daughter Babylon!’

8. For this is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘After the Glorious One has sent me against the nations that have plundered you – for whoever touches you touches the apple of his eye –

9. I will surely raise my hand against them so that their slaves will plunder them. Then you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me.

10. ‘Shout and be glad, Daughter Zion. For I am coming, and I will live among you,’ declares the Lord.

11. ‘Many nations will be joined with the Lord in that day and will become my people. I will live among you and you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you.
