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.
Atter løftede jeg mine Øjne og skuede, og se, fire Vogne kom frem mellem de to Bjerge, og Bjergene var af Kobber.
2 In the first chariot were red horses, and in the second chariot black horses.
For den første Vogn var der røde Heste, for den anden sorte,
3 And in the third chariot white horses, and in the fourth chariot grisled horses, and strong ones.
for den tredje hvide og for den fjerde brogede.
4 And I answered, and said to the angel that spoke in me: What are these, my lord?
Jeg spurgte Engelen, som talte med mig: »Hvad betyder disse, 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: »Det er Himmelens fire Vinde, som drager ud efter at have fremstillet sig 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.
Vognen med de sorte Heste for drager ud til Nordlandet, de hvide til Østlandet og de brogede til Sydlandet;
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.
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.
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.
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.«
9 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
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 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,
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.
og modtage Sølv og Guld. Lad saa lave en Krone og sæt den paa Josuas 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Men Kronen skal blive i HERRENS Helligdom til Minde om Heldaj, Tobija, Jedaja og Hen, Zefanjas Søn.
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.
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 — — —
