1 καὶ ἦρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ τέσσαρα κέρατα 2 καὶ εἶπα πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον τὸν λαλοῦντα ἐν ἐμοί τί ἐστιν ταῦτα κύριε καὶ εἶπεν πρός με ταῦτα τὰ κέρατα τὰ διασκορπίσαντα τὸν Ιουδαν καὶ τὸν Ισραηλ 3 καὶ ἔδειξέν μοι κύριος τέσσαρας τέκτονας 4 καὶ εἶπα τί οὗτοι ἔρχονται ποιῆσαι καὶ εἶπεν πρός με ταῦτα τὰ κέρατα τὰ διασκορπίσαντα τὸν Ιουδαν καὶ τὸν Ισραηλ κατέαξαν καὶ οὐδεὶς αὐτῶν ἦρεν κεφαλήν καὶ εἰσῆλθον οὗτοι τοῦ ὀξῦναι αὐτὰ εἰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν τὰ τέσσαρα κέρατα τὰ ἔθνη τὰ ἐπαιρόμενα κέρας ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν κυρίου τοῦ διασκορπίσαι αὐτήν

1 And I lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold four horns. 2 And I said to the angel that spoke in me: What are these? And he said to me: These are the horns that have scattered Juda, and Israel, and Jerusalem. 3 And the Lord showed me four smiths. 4 And I said: What come these to do? And he spoke, saying: These are the horns which have scattered Juda every man apart, and none of them lifted up his head: and these have come to fray them, to cast down the horns of the nations, that have lifted up the horn upon the land of Juda to scatter it.

1 Et levavi oculos meos, et vidi, et ecce quatuor cornua. 2 Et dixi ad angelum qui loquebatur in me : Quid sunt hæc? Et dixit ad me : Hæc sunt cornua quæ ventilaverunt Judam, et Israël, et Jerusalem. 3 Et ostendit mihi Dominus quatuor fabros. 4 Et dixi : Quid isti veniunt facere? Qui ait, dicens : Hæc sunt cornua quæ ventilaverunt Judam per singulos viros, et nemo eorum levavit caput suum : et venerunt isti deterrere ea, ut dejiciant cornua gentium, quæ levaverunt cornu super terram Juda ut dispergerent eam.

Four horns... The four horns represent the empires, or kingdoms, that persecute and oppress the kingdom of God. Commentary on the Old Testament (1752)
Four smiths... The four smiths, or carpenters (for faber may signify either) represent those whom God makes his instruments in bringing to nothing the power of persecutors. Commentary on the Old Testament (1752)
Jerusalem shall be inhabited without walls... This must be understood of the spiritual Jerusalem, the church of Christ. Commentary on the Old Testament (1752)

5 καὶ ἦρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ σχοινίον γεωμετρικόν 6 καὶ εἶπα πρὸς αὐτόν ποῦ σὺ πορεύῃ καὶ εἶπεν πρός με διαμετρῆσαι τὴν Ιερουσαλημ τοῦ ἰδεῖν πηλίκον τὸ πλάτος αὐτῆς ἐστιν καὶ πηλίκον τὸ μῆκος 7 καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ ἄγγελος ὁ λαλῶν ἐν ἐμοὶ εἱστήκει καὶ ἄγγελος ἕτερος ἐξεπορεύετο εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ 8 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν λέγων δράμε καὶ λάλησον πρὸς τὸν νεανίαν ἐκεῖνον λέγων κατακάρπως κατοικηθήσεται Ιερουσαλημ ἀπὸ πλήθους ἀνθρώπων καὶ κτηνῶν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς 9 καὶ ἐγὼ ἔσομαι αὐτῇ λέγει κύριος τεῖχος πυρὸς κυκλόθεν καὶ εἰς δόξαν ἔσομαι ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς

5 And I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold a man, with a measuring line in his hand. 6 And I said: Where are you going? And he said to me: To measure Jerusalem, and to see how great is the breadth thereof, and how great the length thereof. 7 And behold the angel that spoke in me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him. 8 And he said to him: Run, speak to this young man, saying: Jerusalem shall be inhabited without walls, by reason of the multitude of men, and of the beasts in the midst thereof. 9 And I will be to it, says the Lord, a wall of fire round about: and I will be in glory in the midst thereof.

5 Et levavi oculos meos, et vidi, et ecce vir, et in manu ejus funiculus mensorum. 6 Et dixi : Quo tu vadis? Et dixit ad me : Ut metiar Jerusalem, et videam quanta sit latitudo ejus, et quanta longitudo ejus. 7 Et ecce angelus qui loquebatur in me egrediebatur, et angelus alius egrediebatur in occursum ejus: 8 et dixit ad eum : Curre, loquere ad puerum istum, dicens : Absque muro habitabitur Jerusalem, præ multitudine hominum et jumentorum in medio ejus. 9 Et ego ero ei, ait Dominus, murus ignis in circuitu, et in gloria ero in medio ejus.

10 ὦ ὦ φεύγετε ἀπὸ γῆς βορρᾶ λέγει κύριος διότι ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ἀνέμων τοῦ οὐρανοῦ συνάξω ὑμᾶς λέγει κύριος 11 εἰς Σιων ἀνασῴζεσθε οἱ κατοικοῦντες θυγατέρα Βαβυλῶνος 12 διότι τάδε λέγει κύριος παντοκράτωρ ὀπίσω δόξης ἀπέσταλκέν με ἐπὶ τὰ ἔθνη τὰ σκυλεύσαντα ὑμᾶς διότι ὁ ἁπτόμενος ὑμῶν ὡς ἁπτόμενος τῆς κόρης τοῦ ὀφθαλμοῦ αὐτοῦ 13 διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπιφέρω τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπ' αὐτούς καὶ ἔσονται σκῦλα τοῖς δουλεύουσιν αὐτοῖς καὶ γνώσεσθε διότι κύριος παντοκράτωρ ἀπέσταλκέν με 14 τέρπου καὶ εὐφραίνου θύγατερ Σιων διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἔρχομαι καὶ κατασκηνώσω ἐν μέσῳ σου λέγει κύριος 15 καὶ καταφεύξονται ἔθνη πολλὰ ἐπὶ τὸν κύριον ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ καὶ ἔσονται αὐτῷ εἰς λαὸν καὶ κατασκηνώσουσιν ἐν μέσῳ σου καὶ ἐπιγνώσῃ ὅτι κύριος παντοκράτωρ ἐξαπέσταλκέν με πρὸς σέ 16 καὶ κατακληρονομήσει κύριος τὸν Ιουδαν τὴν μερίδα αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν τὴν ἁγίαν καὶ αἱρετιεῖ ἔτι τὴν Ιερουσαλημ 17 εὐλαβείσθω πᾶσα σὰρξ ἀπὸ προσώπου κυρίου διότι ἐξεγήγερται ἐκ νεφελῶν ἁγίων αὐτοῦ

10 O, O flee out of the land of the north, says the Lord, for I have scattered you into the four winds of heaven, says the Lord. 11 O Sion, flee, you that dwell with the daughter of Babylon: 12 For thus says the Lord of hosts: After the glory he has sent me to the nations that have robbed you: for he that touches you, touches the apple of my eye: 13 For behold, I lift up my hand upon them, and they shall be a prey to those that served them: and you shall know that the Lord of hosts sent me. 14 Sing praise, and rejoice, O daughter of Sion: for behold I come, and I will dwell in the midst of you: says the Lord. 15 And many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day, and they shall be my people, and I will dwell in the midst of you: and you shall know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you. 16 And the Lord shall possess Juda his portion in the sanctified land: and he shall yet choose Jerusalem. 17 Let all flesh be silent at the presence of the Lord: for he is risen up out of his holy habitation.

10 O, o, fugite de terra aquilonis, dicit Dominus, quoniam in quatuor ventos cæli dispersi vos, dicit Dominus. 11 O Sion! fuge, quæ habitas apud filiam Babylonis : 12 quia hæc dicit Dominus exercituum : Post gloriam misit me ad gentes quæ spoliaverunt vos : qui enim tetigerit vos, tangit pupillam oculi mei : 13 quia ecce ego levo manum meam super eos, et erunt prædæ his qui serviebant sibi : et cognoscetis quia Dominus exercituum misit me. 14 Lauda et lætare, filia Sion, quia ecce ego venio, et habitabo in medio tui, ait Dominus. 15 Et applicabuntur gentes multæ ad Dominum in die illa, et erunt mihi in populum, et habitabo in medio tui : et scies quia Dominus exercituum misit me ad te. 16 Et possidebit Dominus Judam partem suam in terra sanctificata, et eliget adhuc Jerusalem. 17 Sileat omnis caro a facie Domini, quia consurrexit de habitaculo sancto suo.
