- Then I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, there was a man with a measuring line in his hand.
- So I said, "Where are you going?" And he said to me, "To measure Jerusalem, to see how wide it is and how long it is."
- And behold, the angel who was speaking with me was going out, and another angel was coming out to meet him,
- 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.
- 'For I,' declares the LORD, 'will be a wall of fire around her, and I will be the glory in her midst.'"

- Then I looked up--and there before me was a man with a measuring line in his hand!
- I asked, "Where are you going?" He answered me, "To measure Jerusalem, to find out how wide and how long it is."
- Then the angel who was speaking to me left, and another angel came to meet him
- and said to him: "Run, tell that young man, 'Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the great number of men and livestock in it.
- And I myself will be a wall of fire around it,' declares the LORD, 'and I will be its glory within.'
