38:001:015 And I am very sore displeased with the heathen that are at
           ease:  for I was but a little displeased, and they helped
           forward the affliction.

38:001:016 Therefore thus saith the lord; I am returned to Jerusalem with
           mercies:  my house shall be built in it, saith the lord of
           hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.

38:001:017 Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the lord of hosts; My cities
           through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the lord
           shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.

38:001:018 Then lifted I up mine eyes, and saw, and behold four horns.

38:001:019 And I said unto the angel that talked with me, What be these? 
           And he answered me, These are the horns which have scattered
           Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.

38:001:020 And the lord shewed me four carpenters.

38:001:021 Then said I, What come these to do?  And he spake, saying,
           These are the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no man
           did lift up his head:  but these are come to fray them, to cast
           out the horns of the Gentiles, which lifted up their horn over
           the land of Judah to scatter it.

38:002:001 I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold a man with
           a measuring line in his hand.

38:002:002 Then said I, Whither goest thou?  And he said unto me, To
           measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and
           what is the length thereof.

38:002:003 And, behold, the angel that talked with me went forth, and
           another angel went out to meet him,

38:002:004 And said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying,
           Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the
           multitude of men and cattle therein: 

38:002:005 For I, saith the lord, will be unto her a wall of fire round
           about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.

38:002:006 Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith
           the lord:  for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of
           the heaven, saith the lord.

38:002:007 Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest with the daughter of
           Babylon.

38:002:008 For thus saith the lord of hosts; After the glory hath he sent
           me unto the nations which spoiled you:  for he that toucheth
           you toucheth the apple of his eye.

38:002:009 For, behold, I will shake mine hand upon them, and they shall
           be a spoil to their servants:  and ye shall know that the lord
           of hosts hath sent me.

38:002:010 Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion:  for, lo, I come, and I
           will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the lord.
