GLORY Zechariah 2:5

" 'And I myself will be a wall of fire around it,' declares the LORD, 'and I will be its glory within.' " 

And I myself will be a wall 
Isaiah 26:1  In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: We have a strong city; God makes salvation its walls and ramparts.
Ezekiel 42:20  So he measured the area on all four sides. It had a wall around it, five hundred cubits* long and five hundred cubits* wide, to separate the holy from the common.

of fire around it 
Isaiah 10:17  The Light of Israel will become a fire, their Holy One a flame; in a single day it will burn and consume his (Assyria's) thorns and briers.

and I will be its glory 
Psalm 85:9  Surely his salvation is near those who fear him, that his glory may dwell in our land.
Isaiah 11:10  In that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples; the nations will rally to him, and his resting place will be glorious.
Isaiah 24:23  The moon will be dismayed, the sun ashamed; for the LORD Almighty will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, and before its elders--with great glory.
Revelation 21:23  The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp.

within 
Psalm 46:5  God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.
Psalm 125:2  As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people both now and forevermore.
Ezekiel 38:14-16  "Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: In that day, when my people Israel are living in safety, will you not take notice of it? You will come from your place in the far north, you and many nations with you, all of them riding on horses, a great horde, a mighty army. You will advance against my people Israel like a cloud that covers the land. In days to come, Gog, I will bring you against my land, so that the nations may know me when I am proved holy through you before their eyes.' "

* one long or royal cubit = a cubit and a handbreadth = about 21 inches or 53 cm
The length of the measuring rod was six long cubits.
