< Zacharias 6 >

1 And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, four chariots coming out from between two mountains; and the mountains were brazen mountains.
И обратихся и возведох очи мои и видех, и се, четыри колесницы исходящыя из средины двоих гор, горы же те беша горы медяны:
2 In the first chariot [were] red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
в колеснице первей кони рыжы, и в колеснице вторей кони врани,
3 and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot piebald [and] ash-coloured horses.
и в колеснице третией кони бели, и в колеснице четвертей кони пестри скори.
4 And I answered and said to the angel that talked with me, What are these, my Lord?
И отвещах и рех ко Ангелу глаголющему во мне: что суть сия, господи?
5 And the angel that talked with me answered and said, These are the four winds of heaven, [and] they are going forth to stand before the Lord of all the earth.
И отвеща Ангел глаголяй во мне и рече: сия суть четыри ветри небеснии, иже исходят предстати Господу всея земли.
6 [As for the chariot] in which were the black horses, they went out to the land of the north; and the white went out after them; and the piebald went out to the land of the south.
В нейже беху кони врани, исхождаху на землю северскую, и белии исхождаху вслед их, и пестрии исхождаху на землю южную,
7 And the ash-coloured went out, and looked to go and compass the earth: and he said, Go, and compass the earth. And they compassed the earth.
и скории исхождаху и озираху еже оыти землю. И рече: идите, обыдите землю. И обыдоша землю.
8 And he cried out and spoke to me, saying, Behold, these go out to the land of the north, and they have quieted mine anger in the land of the north.
И возопи и рече ко мне глаголя: се, исходящии на землю северскую упокоиша ярость Мою на земли северстей.
9 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
И бысть слово Господне ко мне глаголя:
10 Take the things of the captivity from the chief men, and from the useful men of it, and from them that have understood it; and you shall enter in that day into the house of Josias the son of Sophonias that came out of Babylon.
приими, яже от плена от князей и от ключимых его и от разумевших его, и внидеши ты в день он в дом Иосии Софониина, грядущаго от Вавилона,
11 And you shall take silver and gold, and make crowns, and you shall put [them] upon the head of Jesus the son of Josedec the high priest;
и приимеши сребро и злато, и сотвориши венцы, и возложиши на главу Иисусу Иоседекову, иерею великому,
12 and you shall say to him, Thus says the Lord Almighty; Behold the man whose name is The Branch; and he shall spring up from his stem, and build the house of the Lord.
и речеши к нему: сице глаголет Господь Вседержитель: се, Муж, Восток имя Ему, и под Ним возсияет, и созиждет храм Господень:
13 And he shall receive power, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and there shall be a priest on his right hand, and a peaceful counsel shall be between [them] both.
и той приимет добродетель, и сядет и возобладает на престоле Своем, и будет иерей одесную Его, и совет мирен будет между обема,
14 And the crown shall be to them that wait patiently, and to the useful men of the captivity, and to them that have known it, and for the favour of the son of Sophonias, and for a psalm in the house of the Lord.
а венец будет терпящым и ключимым Ему и разумевшым Его, и в благодать сыну Софониину, и в псалом во храме Господни:
15 And they [that are] far from them shall come and build in the house of the Lord, and you shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you: and [this] shall come to pass, if you will diligently listen to the voice of the Lord your God.
и издалеча от сих приидут и созиждут во храме Господни, и уразумеете, яко Господь Вседержитель посла мя к вам: и будет, аще слушающе послушаете гласа Господа Бога вашего.
