Zechariah 2:4-10 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

4. and said to him, "Run, speak to that young man, saying, 'Jerusalem will be inhabited without walls because of the multitude of men and cattle within it.

5. For I,' declares the Lord, 'will be a wall of fire around her, and I will be the glory in her midst.'"

6. "Ho there! Flee from the land of the north," declares the Lord, "for I have dispersed you as the four winds of the heavens," declares the Lord.

7. "Ho, Zion! Escape, you who are living with the daughter of Babylon."

8. For thus says the Lord of hosts, "After glory He has sent me against the nations which plunder you, for he who touches you, touches the apple of His eye.

9. For behold, I will wave My hand over them so that they will be plunder for their slaves. Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me.

10. Sing for joy and be glad, O daughter of Zion; for behold I am coming and I will dwell in your midst," declares the Lord.
