Prophetia Zachariae

Zachariae, chapter 2, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 2 Vulgate

   1 Et levavi oculos meos et vidi, et ecce quattuor cornua;
   2 et dixi ad angelum, qui loquebatur in me: "Quid sunt haec?". Et dixit ad me: "Haec sunt cornua, quae ventilaverunt Iudam et Israel et Ierusalem".
   3 Et ostendit mihi Dominus quattuor fabros;
   4 et dixi: "Quid isti veniunt facere?". Qui respondit dicens: "Haec sunt cornua, quae ventilaverunt Iudam per singulos viros, ut nemo eorum levaret caput suum; et venerunt isti deterrere ea, ut deiciant cornua gentium, quae levaverunt cornu super terram Iudae, ut dispergerent eam".
   5 Et levavi oculos meos et vidi; et ecce vir, et in manu eius funiculus mensorum.
   6 Et dixi: "Quo tu vadis?". Et dixit ad me: "Ut metiar Ierusalem et videam, quanta sit latitudo eius et quanta longitudo eius".
   7 Et ecce angelus, qui loquebatur in me, egrediebatur, et angelus alius egrediebatur in occursum eius;
   8 et dixit ad eum: "Curre, loquere ad puerum istum dicens: Absque muris habitabitur Ierusalem prae multitudine hominum et iumentorum in medio eius.
   9 Et ego ero ei, ait Dominus, murus ignis in circuitu et in gloria ero in medio eius.
   10 Heu, heu! Fugite de terra aquilonis, dicit Dominus, quoniam in quattuor ventos caeli dispersi vos, dicit Dominus.
   11 Heu, Sion, fuge, quae habitas apud filiam Babylonis!
   12 Quia haec dicit Dominus exercituum, cuius gloria misit me ad gentes, quae spoliaverunt vos: Qui tetigerit vos, tangit pupillam oculi mei.
   13 Quia ecce ego levo manum meam super eos, et erunt praeda servorum suorum; et cognoscetis quia Dominus exercituum misit me.
   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".

King James Version

   1 I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand.
   2 Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof.
   3 And, behold, the angel that talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,
   4 And said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the multitude of men and cattle therein:
   5 For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.
   6 ¶ Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith the LORD: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven, saith the LORD.
   7 Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon.
   8 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.
   9 For, behold, I will shake mine hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to their servants: and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me.
   10 ¶ Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD.
   11 And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee.
   12 And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land, and shall choose Jerusalem again.
   13 Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for he is raised up out of his holy habitation.
