1 ث ُمَّ رَفَعْتُ عَينَيَّ وَنَظَرْتُ فَرَأيتُ رَجُلاً يَحمِلُ خَيطَ قِياسٍ.

Then I raised my eyes and looked, and behold, a man with a measuring line in his hand.

2 ف َسألْتُهُ: «إلَى أينَ أنتَ ذاهِبٌ؟» فَقالَ لِي: «أنا ذاهِبٌ لِأقِيسَ مَدينَةَ القُدْسِ، لِأعرِفَ كَمْ عَرضُها وَكَمْ طُولُها.»

So I said, “Where are you going?” And he said to me, “To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its width and what is its length.”

3 ث ُمَّ مضَى المَلاكُ الَّذِي كانَ يَتَكَلَّمُ مَعِي، وَخَرَجَ مَلاكٌ آخَرُ لِلِقائِهِ.

And there was the angel who talked with me, going out; and another angel was coming out to meet him,

4 ف َقالَ المَلاكُ الأوَّلُ لِلثّانِي: «اركُضْ وَقُلْ لِهَذا الشّابِّ: ‹سَتُسْكَنُ مَدينَةُ القُدْسِ لَكِنْ بِلا أسْوارٍ لأنَّهُ سَيَكُونُ فِيها أُناسٌ وَحَيواناتٌ كَثِيرَةٌ.›

who said to him, “Run, speak to this young man, saying: ‘Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls, because of the multitude of men and livestock in it.

5 ي َقُولُ اللهُ: ‹وَسَأكُونُ أنا سُوراً مِنْ نارٍ حَولَها، وَسَأكُونُ مَجداً فِي وَسَطِها.›» دَعوَةُ اللهِ لِشَعبِه

For I,’ says the Lord, ‘will be a wall of fire all around her, and I will be the glory in her midst.’” Future Joy of Zion and Many Nations

6 ي َقُولُ اللهُ: «أسْرِعُوا! اهرُبُوا مِنْ أرْضِ الشَّمالِ. لأنِّي شَتَّتُّكُمْ كَالرِّيحِ فِي كُلِّ اتِّجاةٍ،» يَقُولُ اللهُ.

“Up, up! Flee from the land of the north,” says the Lord; “for I have spread you abroad like the four winds of heaven,” says the Lord.

7 « يا أهَلَ صِهْيَوْنَ السّاكِنينَ فِي بابِلَ، اهرُبُوا مِنْها!»

“Up, Zion! Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.”

8 أ كرَمَنِي اللهُ القَدِيرُ، ثُمَّ أرسَلَنِي إلَى الأُمَمِ الَّتِي نَهَبَتْكُمْ وَقالَ عَنكُمْ: «مَنْ يُؤْذِيكُمْ يُؤْذِي عَيني!»

For thus says the Lord of hosts: “He sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you; for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye.

9 و َقالَ: «سَأرفَعُ يَدَيَّ ضِدَّ تِلكَ الأُمَمِ، حَتَّى إنَّ عَبيدَهُمْ سَيَسلِبُونَهُمْ.» حِينَئِذٍ سَتَعرِفُونَ أنَّ اللهَ القَدِيرَ أرسَلَنِي.

For surely I will shake My hand against them, and they shall become spoil for their servants. Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me.

10 ي َقُولُ اللهُ: «تَرَنَّمِي وَاحتَفِلِي أيَّتُها الابْنَةُ صِهْيَوْنُ، لِأنِّي سَآتِي لِأسْكُنَ فِيكِ،

“Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion! For behold, I am coming and I will dwell in your midst,” says the Lord.

11 س َتَنضَمُّ أُمَمٌ كَثِيرَةٌ للهِ فِي ذَلِكَ الوَقتِ. فَسَيَصِيرُونَ شَعباً لِي، وَأنا سَأسكُنُ فِي وَسْطِكِ يا صِهْيَوْنَ.» حِينَئِذٍ سَتَعرِفِينَ أنَّ اللهَ القَدِيرَ أرسَلَنِي إلَيكِ.

“Many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day, and they shall become My people. And I will dwell in your midst. Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you.

12 س َيتَّخِذُ اللهُ يَهُوذا مُلْكاً لَهُ فِي الأرْضِ المُقَدَّسَةِ، وَسَيَختارُ القُدْسَ ثانِيَةً، لِتَكُونَ مَكاناً مُقَدَّساً لَهُ.

And the Lord will take possession of Judah as His inheritance in the Holy Land, and will again choose Jerusalem.

13 ا صْمُتُوا يا كُلَّ البَشَرِ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ ، فَها هُوَ يَنهَضُ مِنْ مَكانِ سُكناهُ المُقَدَّسِ.

Be silent, all flesh, before the Lord, for He is aroused from His holy habitation!”
