14 So the angel who spoke with me said to me,1 “Proclaim, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts:
“I am azealous for Jerusalem
And for Zion with great1 zeal.
“I am azealous for Jerusalem
And for Zion with great1 zeal.
15 I am exceedingly angry with the nations at ease;
For aI was a little angry,
And they helped—but with evil intent.”
For aI was a little angry,
And they helped—but with evil intent.”
16 ‘Therefore thus says the Lord:
a“I am returning to Jerusalem with mercy;
My bhouse cshall be built in it,” says the Lord of hosts,
“And da surveyor’s line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.” ’
a“I am returning to Jerusalem with mercy;
My bhouse cshall be built in it,” says the Lord of hosts,
“And da surveyor’s line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.” ’
17 “Again proclaim, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts:
“My cities shall again1 spread out through prosperity;
aThe Lord will again comfort Zion,
And bwill again choose 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.”
