7 “Escape, Zion, you who live among the Babylonians!” 8 For the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: “For his own glory he has sent me to the nations that plundered you—for anyone who touches you touches the pupil of his eye. 9 Yes, look here, I am about to punish them so that they will be looted by their own slaves.” Then you will know that the Lord of Heaven’s Armies has sent me.

7 “Escape into Zion, the ones who dwell with daughter Babylon.” 8 Because this is what the Lord Almighty says: “From behind the glory he sent me against the nations, the ones plundering you, because the ones touching you are as ones touching the pupil of my eye. 9 Behold, I lay my hand upon them, and they will be spoils for the ones serving them. And you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me.
