Zechariah 2:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 [a]Save thyself, O Zion, that dwellest with the daughter of Babel.
8 For thus saith the Lord of hosts, After this [b]glory hath he sent me unto the nations, which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you, toucheth the [c]apple of his eye.
9 For behold, I will lift up mine hand [d]upon them: and [e]they shall be a spoil to those that served them, and ye shall know that the Lord of hosts hath [f]sent me.
