WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Καὶ ᾖρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου, καὶ ἴδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ τέσσαρα κέρατα.
1 ALCÉ después mis ojos, y miré y he aquí un varón que tenía en su mano un cordel de medir.
1 I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, a man with a measuring line in his hand.
2 Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον τὸν λαλοῦντα ἐν ἐμοὶ, τί ἐστι ταῦτα κύριε; καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, ταῦτα τὰ κέρατα τὰ διασκορπίσαντα τὸν Ἰούδαν, καὶ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ Ἱερουσαλήμ.
2 Y díjele: ¿A dónde vas? Y él me respondió: A medir á Jerusalem, para ver cuánta es su anchura, y cuánta su longitud.
2 Then I asked, “Where are you going?” He said to me, “To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its width and what is its length.”
3 Καὶ ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος τέσσαρας τέκτονας.
3 Y he aquí, salía aquel ángel que hablaba conmigo, y otro ángel le salió al encuentro,
3 Behold, the angel who talked with me went out, and another angel went out to meet him,
4 Καὶ εἶπα, τί οὗτοι ἔρχονται ποιῆσαι; καὶ εἶπε ταῦτα τὰ κέρατα τὰ διασκορπίσαντα τὸν Ἰούδα καὶ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ κατέαξαν, καὶ οὐδεὶς αὐτῶν ᾖρε κεφαλήν· καὶ ἐξήλθοσαν οὗτοι τοῦ ὀξῦναι αὐτὰ εἰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν, τὰ τέσσαρα κέρατα, τὰ ἔθνη τὰ ἐπαιρόμενα κέρας ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν Κυρίου, τοῦ διασκορπίσαι αὐτήν.
4 Y díjole: Corre, habla á este mozo, diciendo: Sin muros será habitada Jerusalem á causa de la multitud de los hombres, y de las bestias en medio de ella.
4 and said to him, “Run, speak to this young man, saying, ‘Jerusalem will be inhabited as villages without walls, because of the multitude of men and livestock in it.
5 Καὶ ᾖρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου, καὶ ἴδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ, καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ σχοινίον γεωμετρικόν.
5 Yo seré para ella, dice Jehová, muro de fuego en derredor, y seré por gloria en medio de ella.
5 For I,’ says Yahweh, ‘will be to her a wall of fire around it, and I will be the glory in the middle of her.
6 Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς αὐτόν, ποῦ σὺ πορεύῃ; καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, διαμετρῆσαι τὴν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, τοῦ ἰδεῖν πηλίκον τὸ πλάτος αὐτῆς ἐστι, καὶ πηλίκον τὸ μῆκος.
6 Eh, eh, huid de la tierra del aquilón, dice Jehová, pues por los cuatro vientos de los cielos os esparcí, dice Jehová.
6 Come! Come! Flee from the land of the north,’ says Yahweh; ‘for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the sky,’ says Yahweh.
7 Καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ ἄγγελος ὁ λαλῶν ἐν ἐμοὶ εἱστήκει, καὶ ἄγγελος ἕτερος ἐξεπορεύετο εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ,
7 Oh Sión, la que moras con la hija de Babilonia, escápate.
7 ‘Come, Zion! Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.’
8 καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν, λέγων, δράμε, καὶ λάλησον πρὸς τὸν νεανίαν ἐκεῖνον, λέγων, Κατακάρπως κατοικηθήσεται Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἀπὸ πλήθους ἀνθρώπων καὶ κτηνῶν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς·
8 Porque así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos: Después de la gloria me enviará él á las gentes que os despojaron: porque el que os toca, toca á la niña de su ojo.
8 For Yahweh of Armies says: ‘For honor he has sent me to the nations which plundered you; for he who touches you touches the apple of his eye.
9 καὶ ἐγὼ ἔσομαι αὐτῇ, λέγει Κύριος, τεῖχος πυρὸς κυκλόθεν, καὶ εἰς δόξαν ἔσομαι ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς.
9 Porque he aquí yo alzo mi mano sobre ellos, y serán despojo á sus siervos, y sabréis que Jehová de los ejércitos me envió.
9 For, behold, I will shake my hand over them, and they will be a plunder to those who served them; and you will know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me.
10 Ὢ ὢ φεύγετε ἀπὸ γῆς Βοῤῥᾶ, λέγει Κύριος· διότι ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ἀνέμων τοῦ οὐρανοῦ συνάξω ὑμᾶς, λέγει Κύριος,
10 Canta y alégrate, hija de Sión: porque he aquí vengo, y moraré en medio de tí, ha dicho Jehová.
10 Sing and rejoice, daughter of Zion! For behold, I come and I will dwell within you,’ says Yahweh.
11 εἰς Σιὼν, ἀνασώζεσθε οἱ κατοικοῦντες θυγατέρα Βαβυλῶνος.
11 Y uniránse muchas gentes á Jehová en aquel día, y me serán por pueblo, y moraré en medio de ti; y entonces conocerás que Jehová de los ejércitos me ha enviado á ti.
11 Many nations shall join themselves to Yahweh in that day, and shall be my people; and I will dwell among you, and you shall know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me to you.
12 Διότι τάδε λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ, ὀπίσω δόξης ἀπέσταλκέ με ἐπὶ τὰ ἔθνη τὰ σκυλεύσαντα ὑμᾶς, διότι ὁ ἁπτόμενος ὑμῶν ὡς ὁ ἁπτόμενος τῆς κόρης τοῦ ὀφθαλμοῦ αὐτοῦ.
12 Y Jehová poseerá á Judá su heredad en la tierra santa, y escogerá aún á Jerusalem.
12 Yahweh will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land, and will again choose Jerusalem.
13 Διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπιφέρω τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἔσονται σκῦλα τοῖς δουλεύουσιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ γνώσεσθε ὅτι Κύριος παντοκράτωρ ἀπέσταλκέ με.
13 Calle toda carne delante de Jehová; porque él se ha despertado de su santa morada.
13 Be silent, all flesh, before Yahweh; for he has roused himself from his holy habitation!”
14 Τέρπου καὶ εὐφραίνου θύγατερ Σιὼν, διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἔρχομαι, καὶ κατασκηνώσω ἐν μέσῳ σου, λέγει Κύριος.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Behold, I will bring mine hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to their servants: and ye shall know that the Lord Almighty hath sent me." Observe, the Lord Almighty saith that the Lord Almighty sent Him.
