1 Et levavi oculos meos et vidi, et ecce quattuor cornua;1 And I lifted up my eyes, and I saw, and behold, a man, and in his hand was a measuring line.
2 et dixi adangelum, qui loquebatur in me: “Quid sunt haec?”. Et dixit ad me: “Haecsunt cornua, quae ventilaverunt Iudam et Israel et Ierusalem”.2 And I said, “Where are you going?” And he said to me, “To measure Jerusalem, so that I may see how great its width and how great its length may be.”
3 Et ostenditmihi Dominus quattuor fabros;3 And behold, the angel, who had been speaking with me, departed, and another angel went out to meet him.
4 et dixi: “Quid isti veniunt facere?”. Quirespondit dicens: “Haec sunt cornua, quae ventilaverunt Iudam per singulosviros, ut nemo eorum levaret caput suum; et venerunt isti deterrere ea, utdeiciant cornua gentium, quae levaverunt cornu super terram Iudae, utdispergerent eam”.
4 And he said to him: Hurry, speak to this young man, saying: Jerusalem will be inhabited without walls, because of the multitude of men and beasts of burden in its midst.
5 Et levavi oculos meos et vidi; et ecce vir, et in manu eius funiculusmensorum.5 And I will be to it, says the Lord, a wall of fire all around. And in glory, I will be in its midst.
6 Et dixi: “Quo tu vadis?”. Et dixit ad me: “Ut metiar Ierusalemet videam, quanta sit latitudo eius et quanta longitudo eius”.
6 O, O flee from the land of the North, says the Lord, for I have scattered you into the four winds of heaven, says the Lord.
7 Et ecce angelus, qui loquebatur in me, egrediebatur, et angelus aliusegrediebatur in occursum eius;7 O Zion, flee, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.
8 et dixit ad eum: “Curre, loquere ad puerumistum dicens: Absque muris habitabitur Ierusalem prae multitudine hominum etiumentorum in medio eius.8 For thus says the Lord of hosts: After the glory, he has sent me to the Gentiles, which have despoiled you. For he who touches you, touches the pupil of my eye.
9 Et ego ero ei, ait Dominus, murus ignis in circuituet in gloria ero in medio eius.9 For behold, I lift up my hand over them, and they will be a prey to those who had served them. And you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me.
10 Heu, heu! Fugite de terra aquilonis, dicit Dominus, quoniam in quattuorventos caeli dispersi vos, dicit Dominus.10 Sing praise and rejoice, daughter of Zion. For behold, I approach, and I will dwell in your midst, says the Lord.
11 Heu, Sion, fuge, quae habitas apudfiliam Babylonis!11 And many nations will be joined to the Lord in that day, and they will be my people, and I will dwell in your midst. And you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you.
12 Quia haec dicit Dominus exercituum, cuius gloria misit mead gentes, quae spoliaverunt vos: Qui tetigerit vos, tangit pupillam oculi mei.12 And the Lord will possess his portion, Judah, in the sanctified land, and still he will single out Jerusalem.
13 Quia ecce ego levo manum meam super eos, et erunt praeda servorum suorum; etcognoscetis quia Dominus exercituum misit me.13 Let all flesh be silent before the face of the Lord: for he has arisen from his holy dwelling place.
14 Iubila et laetare, filia Sion,
quia ecce ego venio
et habitabo in medio tui,
ait Dominus.
15 Et applicabuntur gentes multae
ad Dominum in die illa
et erunt ei in populum.
Et habitabo in medio tui,
et scies quia Dominus exercituum
misit me ad te.
16 Et possidebit Dominus Iudam
partem suam super terram sanctam
et eliget adhuc Ierusalem.
17 Sileat omnis caro a facie Domini,
quia consurrexit de habitaculo sancto suo”.
