¹⁵ I am fiercely angry with the nations that are at ease,^(A) for I was a little angry, but they made the destruction worse.^{[a] 16} Therefore, this is what the Lord says: In mercy, I have returned to Jerusalem; my house will be rebuilt within it – this is the declaration of the Lord of Armies – and a measuring line will be stretched out over Jerusalem.^(B)
