Zakarias 6
1 Atter løftede jeg mine Øjne og skuede, og se, fire Vogne kom frem mellem de to Bjerge, og Bjergene var af Kobber.
And I turn back, and lift up mine eyes, and look, and lo, four chariots are coming forth from between two of the mountains, and the mountains [are] mountains of brass.
2 For den første Vogn var der røde Heste, for den anden sorte,
In the first chariot [are] red horses, and in the second chariot brown horses,
3 for den tredje hvide og for den fjerde brogede.
and in the third chariot white horses, and in the fourth chariot strong grisled horses.
4 Jeg spurgte Engelen, som talte med mig: »Hvad betyder disse, Herre?«
And I answer and say unto the messenger who is speaking with me, 'What [are] these, my lord?'
5 Og Engelen svarede: »Det er Himmelens fire Vinde, som drager ud efter at have fremstillet sig for al Jordens Herre.
And the messenger answereth and saith unto me, 'These [are] four spirits of the heavens coming forth from presenting themselves before the Lord of the whole earth.
6 Vognen med de sorte Heste for drager ud til Nordlandet, de hvide til Østlandet og de brogede til Sydlandet;
The brown horses that [are] therein, are coming forth unto the land of the north; and the white have come forth unto their hinder part; and the grisled have come forth unto the land of the south;
7 de røde drager mod Vest.« Og de var ivrige efter at komme af Sted for at drage ud over Jorden. Da sagde han: »Af Sted; drag ud over Jorden!« Og de drog ud over Jorden.
and the strong ones have come forth, and they seek to go to walk up and down in the earth;' and he saith, 'Go, walk up and down in the earth;' and they walk up and down in the earth.
8 Saa kaldte han paa mig og talte saaledes til mig: »Se, de, som drager ud til Nordlandet, lader min Aand dale ned over Nordens Land.«
And he calleth me, and speaketh unto me, saying, 'See, those coming forth unto the land of the north have caused My Spirit to rest in the land of the north.'
9 HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
10 Tag imod Gaver fra de landflygtige, fra Heldaj, Tobija og Jedaja; endnu i Dag skal du gaa indtil Josjija, Zefanjas Søn, som er kommet fra Babel,
to take of the captivity (who came from Babylon) from Heldai, from Tobijah, and from Jedaiah, 'and thou hast come in — thou, in that day, yea, thou hast come into the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah,
11 og modtage Sølv og Guld. Lad saa lave en Krone og sæt den paa Josuas Hoved
and thou hast taken silver and gold, and hast made a crown, and hast placed on the head of Joshua son of Josedech, the high priest,
12 med de Ord: »Saa siger Hærskarers HERRE: Se, der kommer en Mand, hvis Navn er Zemak; under ham skal det spire, og han skal bygge HERRENS Helligdom.
and hast spoken unto him, saying: Thus spake Jehovah of Hosts, saying: Lo, a man! A Shoot — [is] his name, And from his place he doth shoot up, And he hath built the temple of Jehovah.
13 Han skal bygge HERRENS Helligdom, og han skal vinde Højhed og sidde som Hersker paa sin Trone; og han skal være Præst ved hans højre Side, og der skal være fuld Enighed mellem de to.
Yea, he doth build the temple of Jehovah, And he doth bear away honour, And he hath sat and ruled on His throne, And hath been a priest on His throne, And a counsel of peace is between both.
14 Men Kronen skal blive i HERRENS Helligdom til Minde om Heldaj, Tobija, Jedaja og Hen, Zefanjas Søn.
And the crown is to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of Jehovah.
15 Langvejsfra skal man komme og bygge paa HERRENS Helligdom; og I skal kende, at Hærskarers HERRE har sendt mig til eder. Og dersom I adlyder HERREN eders Gud — — —
And the far-off come in, and they have built in the temple of Jehovah, and ye have known that Jehovah of Hosts hath sent me unto you, yea, it hath come to pass, if ye do certainly hearken to the voice of Jehovah your God.'
