3. And look, the angel who was talking to me was coming forward, and another angel was coming forward to meet him.

5. And I will be for it a wall of fire all around,’ declares Yahweh, ‘and I will be the glory in its midst.’ ”
6. “Woe! Woe! Flee from the land of the north,” declares Yahweh, “for I have scattered you like the four winds of the heavens,” declares Yahweh.
7. “Woe, Zion! Escape, you inhabitants of the daughter of Babylon!”
