'Responded' in the Bible

Then the Angel of the Lord responded, “How long, Lord of Hosts, will You withhold mercy from Jerusalem and the cities of Judah that You have been angry with these 70 years?”

I asked, "Where are you going?" He responded, "To measure Jerusalem in order to determine its width and length."

The angel who had been speaking with me answered by asking, "You don't know what these mean, do you?" So I responded, "No, sir."

The angel replied, "You don't know what these are, do you?" I responded to him, "No, sir."

He responded to me, "This is the curse that is going out over the surface of the whole earth, because, according to this side of the scroll, all thieves will be ejected, and according to the other side of the scroll, all liars will be ejected."

So I asked, “What is it?”He responded, “It’s a measuring basket that is approaching.” And he continued, “This is their iniquity in all the land.”
