And
again I lifted up my eyes and saw four chariots coming
out from between two mountains —
mountains of bronze
.
Again I lifted up my eyes ,
and saw ,
and,
behold,
four chariots came
out from between two mountains ;
and
the
mountains were
mountains
of brass
.
The first chariot had
red horses ,
the second black horses ,
In
the first chariot were
red horses ;
in
the second chariot
black horses ;
the third white horses ,
and the fourth dappled horses —
all of them strong
.
in
the third chariot
white horses ;
and in
the fourth chariot
dappled horses ,
all of them powerful
.
So
I inquired
of
the angel who was
speaking
with me, “
What are these, my lord? ”
Then
I asked
the angel who talked
with me, "
What are these, my lord? "
And
the angel told
me, “
These are the four spirits
of heaven
, going
forth from their
station
before the Lord of all the earth.
The angel answered
me, "
These are the four winds
of the
sky
, which
go
forth from standing
before the Lord of all the earth.
The one with the black horses is
going
toward the land
of
the
north ,
the
one
with
the white horses
toward
the
west,
and the one
with
the
dappled horses
toward the south. ”
The one with the black horses goes
out
toward the north country;
and
the white went
out
after
them;
and the dappled went
forth
toward the south country
. "
As
the strong horses
went out, they
were
eager
to go and patrol
the earth ;
and the
LORD
said, “
Go and patrol
the earth .”
So they patrolled
the earth.
The strong went out, and
sought
to go that
they
might
walk
back
and forth
through
the earth :
and he
said, "
Go around
and through
the earth !"
So they walked
back
and
forth
through
the earth.
Then the
LORD
summoned
me and said
, “
Behold, those going
to
the
land
of
the north have given
rest
to
My Spirit in the land
of
the
north. ”
Then he
called
to
me ,
and spoke
to
me
, saying,
"
Behold, those who
go
toward
the north country
have quieted
my spirit in the north country
. "
The word of the
LORD
also
came to me, saying,
The word of Yahweh
came to me, saying,
“
Take an
offering
from
the exiles—from
Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah ,
who
have
arrived
from
Babylon—
and go
that
same day to
the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah.
"
Take of
them
of
the captivity,
even
of
Heldai, of
Tobijah, and of
Jedaiah ;
and come
the
same day ,
and
go
into
the house of Josiah the
son of Zephaniah ,
where
they
have
come
from
Babylon
.
Take silver and gold, make an
ornate
crown
, and set it
on the head of the
high
priest,
Joshua son of Jehozadak .
Yes,
take silver and gold, and
make crowns
, and set them
on the head of Joshua the
son of Jehozadak ,
the
high
priest;
And you
are
to tell
him that
this
is
what
the
LORD
of Hosts says:
‘Here
is
a
man whose name is the Branch ,
and He will
branch
out from
His place and build the temple of the
LORD.
and speak
to him ,
saying,
'Thus
says
Yahweh
of Hosts ,
"Behold,
the
man whose name is the Branch :
and he shall
grow
up
out of
his place ;
and he
shall
build the temple of Yahweh;
Yes,
He will
build the temple of the
LORD
; He will
be
clothed
in
splendor
and will
sit on His throne and
rule.
And He will
be a priest on His throne ,
and there
will
be
peaceful
counsel between the
two
. ’
even
he shall
build the temple of Yahweh
; and
he shall
bear
the
glory,
and shall
sit and
rule
on his throne ;
and he shall
be a priest on his throne ;
and the
counsel of
peace
shall
be
between them
both
.
The crown
will
reside
in
the
temple
of
the
LORD
as
a
memorial
to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and the gracious
son of Zephaniah.
The crowns
shall
be
to Helem, and
to
Tobijah, and
to
Jedaiah, and to
Hen
the son of Zephaniah ,
for
a
memorial
in
the
temple
of
Yahweh
.
Even
those far away
will
come and build the temple of the
LORD,
and you will
know that the
LORD
of Hosts has sent Me to you. This will happen if you diligently obey the voice of the
LORD
your God. ”
Those who
are
far off
shall
come and build in
the temple of Yahweh;
and you shall
know that Yahweh
of hosts has sent me to you. This will happen ,
if you will
diligently obey the voice of Yahweh
your God. "'"
