Berean Standard Bible
And I turned,
and
lifted up mine
eyes ,
and looked,
and,
behold,
there
came
four chariots out from between two mountains ;
and
the
mountains
were
mountains of brass
.
And again
I lifted up my
eyes and saw
four chariots coming
out from between two mountains —
mountains of bronze
.
In
the first chariot were
red horses ;
and
in
the second chariot
black horses ;
The first chariot had
red horses ,
the second black horses ,
And
in
the third chariot
white horses ;
and in
the fourth chariot
grisled
and
bay
horses.
the third white horses ,
and the fourth dappled
horses —all
of
them
strong
.
Then
I answered
and
said
unto
the angel that
talked
with me, What are these, my lord?
So
I inquired
of
the angel who
was
speaking
with me, “
What are these, my lord? ”
And the angel answered
and
said
unto
me, These are the four spirits of the
heavens
, which
go
forth from standing
before the LORD of all the earth.
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 black horses which
are
therein
go
forth
into
the north country;
and
the white go
forth
after
them;
and the grisled
go
forth
toward the south country
.
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. ”
And
the bay
went forth
, and
sought
to
go
that
they might
walk
to and fro
through
the earth :
and he
said, Get
you
hence,
walk
to
and fro
through
the earth. So they walked
to
and
fro
through
the earth.
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.
Then cried
he
upon
me ,
and spake
unto
me,
saying
, Behold, these
that
go
toward
the north country
have quieted
my spirit in the north country
.
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. ”
And
the word of the LORD came unto
me, saying,
The word of the LORD also
came to
me, saying,
Take of
them
of
the captivity,
even
of
Heldai, of
Tobijah, and of
Jedaiah, which
are
come
from Babylon ,
and come
thou
the
same day ,
and
go
into
the house of Josiah the
son of Zephaniah ;
“
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 .
Then
take silver and gold, and
make crowns
, and set them
upon
the head of Joshua
the son
of
Josedech,
the
high priest ;
Take silver and gold, make an
ornate
crown
, and set it
on
the head of the high priest ,
Joshua
son
of
Jehozadak.
And speak
unto
him ,
saying,
Thus
speaketh
the LORD of hosts ,
saying,
Behold
the
man whose name is The BRANCH ;
and he shall
grow
up
out of
his place ,
and he
shall
build the temple of the LORD :
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 .
Even
he shall
build the temple of the LORD; and
he shall
bear
the
glory,
and shall
sit and
rule
upon
his throne ;
and he shall
be a priest upon
his throne :
and the
counsel
of
peace
shall
be between them
both
.
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
. ’
And
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
the
LORD
.
The crown
will
reside
in
the
temple
of
the
LORD
as
a
memorial
to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and the gracious
son of Zephaniah.
And
they
that
are
far off
shall
come and build in
the temple of the LORD, and ye
shall
know that the LORD of hosts hath
sent me unto
you. And
this shall
come
to
pass,
if
ye
will diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.
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. ”
