Chapter 6

1


 

  Again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.  

 

 

-

2


 

  In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;  

 

 

-

3


 

  and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grizzled strong horses.  

 

 

-

4


 

  Then I answered the angel who talked with me, What are these, my lord?  

 

 

-

5


 

  The angel answered me, These are the four winds of the sky, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.  

 

 

-

6


 

  [The chariot] in which are the black horses goes forth toward the north country; and the white went forth after them; and the grizzled went forth toward the south country.  

 

 

-

7


 

  The strong went forth, and sought to go that they might walk back and forth through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk back and forth through the earth. So they walked back and forth through the earth.

8


 

  Then cried he to me, and spoke to me, saying, Behold, those who go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.

9


 

  The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,  

 

 

-

10


 

  Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come you the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they are come from Babylon;  

 

 

-

11


 

  yes, take [of them] silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;  

 

 

-

12


 

  and speak to him, saying, Thus speaks Yahweh 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 Yahweh;  

 

 

-

13


 

  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.  

 

 

-

14


 

  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.  

 

 

-

15


 

  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] shall happen, if you will diligently obey the voice of Yahweh your God.
