12Then the angelH4397 of YhwhH3068 answeredH6030 and saidH559, O YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635, how long wilt thou not have mercyH7355 on JerusalemH3389 and on the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, against which thou hast had indignationH2194 these threescore and tenH7657 yearsH8141? 13And YhwhH3068 answeredH6030 the angelH4397 that talkedH1696 with me with goodH2896 wordsH1697 and comfortableH5150 wordsH1697. 14So the angelH4397 that communedH1696 with me saidH559 unto me, CryH7121 thou, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635; I am jealousH7065 for JerusalemH3389 and for ZionH6726 with a greatH1419 jealousyH7068. 15And I am veryH1419 soreH7110 displeasedH7107 with the heathenH1471 that are at easeH7600: for I was but a littleH4592 displeasedH7107, and they helpedH5826 forward the afflictionH7451. 16Therefore thus saithH559 YhwhH3068; I am returnedH7725 to JerusalemH3389 with merciesH7356: my houseH1004 shall be builtH1129 in it, saithH5002 YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635, and a lineH6961H6957 shall be stretched forthH5186 upon JerusalemH3389. 17CryH7121 yet, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635; My citiesH5892 through prosperityH2896 shall yet be spread abroadH6327; And YhwhH3068 shall yet comfortH5162 ZionH6726, and shall yet chooseH977 JerusalemH3389.1
