So I said, “Where are you going?” And he said to me, “To AJer 31:39; Ezek 40:3; Rev 21:15-17measure Jerusalem, to see how wide it is and how long it is.” And behold, the AZech 1:9angel 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 AJer 1:6; Dan 1:4; 1 Tim 4:12young man, saying, ‘BZech 1:17; 8:4Jerusalem will be inhabited 1Lit like unwalled villages; or like open countryCEzek 38:11without walls because of the DIs 49:20; Jer 30:19; 33:22multitude of men and cattle within it.  ‘For I,’ declares the Loʀᴅ, ‘will be a AIs 4:5; 26:1; 60:18wall of fire 1Lit to heraround her, and I will be the BHag 2:9; Zech 2:10, 11glory in her midst.’ ”
