My bhouse cshall be built in it,” says the Lord of hosts,
“And da surveyor’s line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.” ’

“My cities shall again1 spread out through prosperity;
aThe Lord will again comfort Zion,
And bwill again choose Jerusalem.” ’ ”

Vision of the Horns
18 Then I raised my eyes and looked, and there were four ahorns.
19 And I said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these?” So he answered me, a“These are the horns that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”
20 Then the Lord showed me four craftsmen.
21 And I said, “What are these coming to do?” So he said, “These are the ahorns that scattered Judah, so that no one could lift up his head; but1 the craftsmen are coming to terrify them, to cast out the horns of the nations that blifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.”
