3 And behold, the Angel that talked with me, went forth, and another Angel went out to meet him,
4 And said unto him, Run, speak to this [a]young man, and say, [b]Jerusalem shall be inhabited without walls, for the multitude of men and cattle therein.
5 For I, saith the Lord, will be unto her a wall of [c]fire round about, and will [d]be the glory in the midst of her.
