New International Version
12 Then the angel of the Lord said, “Lord Almighty, how long(A) will you withhold mercy(B) from Jerusalem and from the towns of Judah,(C) which you have been angry with these seventy(D) years?” 13 So the Lord spoke(E) kind and comforting words(F) to the angel who talked with me.(G)
14 Then the angel who was speaking to me said, “Proclaim this word: This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘I am very jealous(H) for Jerusalem and Zion, 15 and I am very angry with the nations that feel secure.(I) I was only a little angry,(J) but they went too far with the punishment.’(K)
16 “Therefore this is what the Lord says: ‘I will return(L) to Jerusalem with mercy, and there my house will be rebuilt. And the measuring line(M) will be stretched out over Jerusalem,’ declares the Lord Almighty.(N)

12 Then the angel of the Lord answered and said, O Lord of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years?
13 And the Lord answered the angel that talked with me with good words and comfortable words.
14 So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
15 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.
16 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.

The Lord Will Comfort Zion
12 Then the Angel of the Lord answered and said, “O Lord of hosts, (A)how long will You not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which You were angry (B)these seventy years?”
13 And the Lord answered the angel who talked to me, with (C)good and comforting words. 14 So the angel who spoke with me said to me, [a]“Proclaim, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts:
“I am (D)zealous[b] for Jerusalem
And for Zion with great [c]zeal.
15 I am exceedingly angry with the nations at ease;
For (E)I was a little angry,
And they helped—but with evil intent.”
16 ‘Therefore thus says the Lord:
(F)“I am returning to Jerusalem with mercy;
My (G)house (H)shall be built in it,” says the Lord of hosts,
“And (I)a surveyor’s line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.” ’
