This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
2:6 Yahweh commands the exiles to go home
6 Yahweh declares: Get up and get moving. Flee from that land in the north, because I had scattered you into the four winds. 7 Now run you people who live in Babylon—escape to Tsiyyon (Zion). 8 Army commander Yahweh said that, after he honoured and sent me against the nations that plundered you—
because whoever touches you, is messing with God’s favourite.
9 He said, “I myself will punish them, and they’ll be looted by their own slaves.”
When you see that, then you’ll know that army commander Yahweh sent me.
10 Yahweh declares: “Sing and be glad, daughter of Tsiyyon, because I myself will come and settle among you.”
11 Then powerful nations will join Yahweh at that time, and they will become his people. He will settle among you, and you will know that army commander Yahweh has sent me to you. 12 Then Yahweh will inherit Yehudah as his rightful possession in that sacred region, and will once again choose Yerushalem.
13 All people everywhere, be silent before Yahweh, because from his sacred place, he’s been driven into action.
