Zechariah 2:8 in Context — Zechariah 2
6 Fuyez, fuyez du pays du septentrion! Dit l’Éternel. Car je vous ai dispersés aux quatre vents des cieux, Dit l’Éternel.
7 Sauve-toi, Sion, Toi qui habites chez la fille de Babylone!
8 Car ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées: Après cela, viendra la gloire! Il m’a envoyé vers les nations qui vous ont dépouillés; Car celui qui vous touche touche la prunelle de son œil.
9 Voici, je lève ma main contre elles, Et elles seront la proie de ceux qui leur étaient asservis. Et vous saurez que l’Éternel des armées m’a envoyé.
10 Pousse des cris d’allégresse et réjouis-toi, Fille de Sion! Car voici, je viens, et j’habiterai au milieu de toi, Dit l’Éternel.
