Zechariah 2:6-13

“Hear this! Flee from [Babylon] the land of the north [which shall come under judgment],” declares the LORD, “for I have scattered you like the four winds of the heavens,” declares the LORD. “Hear, Zion (Jerusalem)! Escape, you who are living with the daughter of Babylon!” For thus says the LORD of hosts, “After glory He has sent Me against the nations which plunder you—for he who touches you, touches the apple of His eye. Behold, I will wave my hand over them and they shall become plunder for their own slaves. Then you shall know (recognize, understand fully) that the LORD of hosts has sent Me. Sing for joy and rejoice, O Daughter of Zion; for behold, I am coming, and I will dwell in your midst,” declares the LORD. “Many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day and shall be My people. And I will dwell in your midst, and you shall know (recognize, understand fully) that the LORD of hosts has sent Me to you. [Is 2:3; Mic 4:2] The LORD will take possession of Judah as His portion in the holy land and will again choose Jerusalem. “Be still before the LORD, all mankind; for He is roused (raised up) from His holy habitation [in response to His persecuted people].” [Hab 2:20; Zeph 1:7]
