Zechariah 6
1 And I turned, and lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold four chariots came out from the midst of two mountains: and the mountains were mountains of brass.
Og jeg opløftede atter mine Øjne og saa, og se, fire Vogne, som gik frem imellem de to Bjerge, og Bjergene vare Kobberbjerge.
2 In the first chariot were red horses, and in the second chariot black horses.
For den første Vogn var der røde Heste, og for den anden Vogn sorte Heste,
3 And in the third chariot white horses, and in the fourth chariot grisled horses, and strong ones.
og for den tredje Vogn hvide Heste, og for den fjerde Vogn spraglede, stærke Heste.
4 And I answered, and said to the angel that spoke in me: What are these, my lord?
Og jeg svarede og sagde til Engelen, som talte med mig: Hvad betyde disse, min Herre?
5 And the angel answered, and said to me: These are the four winds of the heaven, which go forth to stand before the Lord of all the earth.
Og Engelen svarede og sagde til mig: Disse ere de fire Vejr under Himmelen, som gaa ud, efter at de have stillet sig frem for al Jordens Herre.
6 That in which were the black horses went forth into the land of the north, and the white went forth after them: and the grisled went forth to the land of the south.
Hvad angaar Vognen med de sorte Heste for, da gaa de ud imod Nordens Land og de hvide ere gangne ud bag efter dem, og de spraglede ere gangne ud imod Sydens Land.
7 And they that were most strong, went out, and sought to go, and to run to and fro through all the earth. And he said: Go, walk throughout the earth: and they walked throughout the earth.
Og de stærke ere gangne ud, men de begærede at gaa hen for at vandre Jorden rundt, og han sagde: Gaar, vandrer Jorden rundt; saa vandrede de Jorden rundt.
8 And he called me, and spoke to me, saying: Behold they that go forth into the land of the north, have quieted my spirit in the land of the north.
Da raabte han til mig og talte til mig og sagde: Se, de, som udgaa imod Nordens Land, bringe min Aand til at hvile i Nordens Land.
9 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
10 Take of them of the captivity, of Holdai, and of Tobias, and of Idaias; thou shalt come in that day, and shalt go into the house of Josias, the son of Sophonias, who came out of Babylon.
Tag af de bortførte, nemlig af Keldaj, af Tobias og Jedaja, og gaa du paa denne Dag, ja, gaa ind i Josias's, Zefanias's Søns, Hus, hvorhen de ere komne fra Babel:
11 And thou shalt take gold and silver: and shalt make crowns, and thou shalt set them on the head of Jesus the son of Josedec, the high priest.
Ja, tag Sølv og Guld, og gør Kroner, og sæt dem paa Ypperstepræsten Josuas, Jozadaks Søns, Hoved;
12 And thou shalt speak to him, saying: Thus saith the Lord of hosts, saying: BEHOLD A MAN, THE ORIENT IS HIS NAME: and under him shall he spring up, and shall build a temple to the Lord.
og sig til ham: Saa siger den Herre Zebaoth: Se, en Mand, Zemak er hans Navn; og fra sit Sted skal han skyde frem, og han skal bygge Herrens Tempel.
13 Yea, he shall build a temple to 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.
Ja, han skal bygge Herrens Tempel, og han skal bære Kongeherlighed, og han skal sidde og herske paa sin Trone, og han skal være Præst paa sin Trone, og der skal være Freds Raad imellem dem begge.
14 And the crowns shall be to Helem, and Tobias, and Idaias, and to Hem, the son of Sophonias, a memorial in the temple of the Lord.
Og Kronerne skulle være for Kelem og for Tobias og for Jedaja og for Hen, Zefanias's Søn, til en Ihukommelse i Herrens Tempel.
15 And they that are far off, shall come and shall build in the temple of the Lord: and you shall know that the Lord of hosts sent me to you. But this shall come to pass, if hearing you will hear the voice of the Lord your God.
Og fjerne Folk skulle komme og bygge paa Herrens Tempel, og I skulle fornemme, at den Herre Zebaoth har sendt mig til eder; og dette skal ske, dersom I flittigt ville høre Herren eders Guds Røst.
