< Zechariah 6 >

1 And again I lifted up my eyes and saw four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze.
et conversus sum et levavi oculos meos et vidi et ecce quattuor quadrigae egredientes de medio duorum montium et montes montes aerei
2 The first chariot had red horses, the second black horses,
in quadriga prima equi rufi et in quadriga secunda equi nigri
3 the third white horses, and the fourth dappled horses—all of them strong.
et in quadriga tertia equi albi et in quadriga quarta equi varii fortes
4 So I inquired of the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these, my lord?”
et respondi et dixi ad angelum qui loquebatur in me quid sunt haec domine mi
5 And the angel told me, “These are the four spirits of heaven, going forth from their station before the Lord of all the earth.
et respondit angelus et ait ad me isti sunt quattuor venti caeli qui egrediuntur ut stent coram Dominatore omnis terrae
6 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.”
in quo erant equi nigri egrediebantur in terra aquilonis et albi egressi sunt post eos et varii egressi sunt ad terram austri
7 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.
qui autem erant robustissimi exierunt et quaerebant ire et discurrere per omnem terram et dixit ite perambulate terram et perambulaverunt terram
8 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.”
et vocavit me et locutus est ad me dicens ecce qui egrediuntur in terram aquilonis requiescere fecerunt spiritum meum in terra aquilonis
9 The word of the LORD also came to me, saying,
et factum est verbum Domini ad me dicens
10 “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.
sume a transmigratione ab Oldai et a Tobia et ab Idaia et venies tu in die illa et intrabis domum Iosiae filii Sofoniae qui venerunt de Babylone
11 Take silver and gold, make an ornate crown, and set it on the head of the high priest, Joshua son of Jehozadak.
et sumes argentum et aurum et facies coronas et pones in capite Iesu filii Iosedech sacerdotis magni
12 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.
et loqueris ad eum dicens haec ait Dominus exercituum dicens ecce vir Oriens nomen eius et subter eum orietur et aedificabit templum Domino
13 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.’
et ipse extruet templum Domino et ipse portabit gloriam et sedebit et dominabitur super solio suo et erit sacerdos super solio suo et consilium pacis erit inter duos illos
14 The crown will reside in the temple of the LORD as a memorial to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and the gracious son of Zephaniah.
et coronae erunt Helem et Tobiae et Idaiae et Hen filio Sofoniae memoriale in templo Domini
15 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.”
et qui procul sunt venient et aedificabunt in templo Domini et scietis quia Dominus exercituum misit me ad vos erit autem hoc si auditu audieritis vocem Domini Dei vestri
