1 And I lift up my eyes, and look, and behold, a man, and in his hand a measuring line. 2 And I say, “To where are you going?” And he says to me, “To measure Jerusalem, to see how much [is] its breadth and how much its length.” 3 And behold, the messenger who is speaking with me is going out, and another messenger is going out to meet him, 4 and he says to him, “Run, speak to this young man, saying, || Jerusalem is inhabited [as] open places, || From the abundance of man and beast in her midst. 5 And I am to her—a declaration of YHWH—A wall of fire all around, || And I am for glory in her midst.
