I said, “What are you up to?”

“I’m on my way,” he said, “to survey Jerusalem,

to measure its width and length.”

Then I said, “Where are you going?” And he said to me, “To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its width and what is its length.”

I asked, “Where are you going?”

He answered me, “To measure Jerusalem, to find out how wide and how long it is.”

I asked, “Where are you going?”

He answered me, “To measure Jerusalem to determine its width and length.”

“Where are you going?” I asked.

He replied, “I am going to measure Jerusalem, to see how wide and how long it is.”

And I asked, “Where are you going?” And he answered me, “To measure Jerusalem to see what is its width and what is its length.”

Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof.
