Zechariah 6
1 Then I turned and lifted my eyes and I saw four chariots coming out from between two mountains; and the two mountains were made of bronze.
我又舉目觀看，見有四輛車從兩山中間出來；那山是銅山。
2 The first chariot had red horses, the second chariot had black horses,
第一輛車套着紅馬，第二輛車套着黑馬。
3 the third chariot had white horses, and the fourth chariot had spotted gray horses.
第三輛車套着白馬，第四輛車套着有斑點的壯馬。
4 So I answered and said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my master?”
我就問與我說話的天使說：「主啊，這是甚麼意思？」
5 The angel answered and said to me, “These are the four winds of heaven that go out from the place where they were standing before the Lord of all the earth.
天使回答我說：「這是天的四風，是從普天下的主面前出來的。」
6 The one with the black horses is going out to the north country; the white horses are going out to the west country; and the spotted gray horses are going out to the south country.”
套着黑馬的車往北方去，白馬跟隨在後；有斑點的馬往南方去。
7 These strong horses went out and sought to go and roam over the earth, so the angel said, “Go and roam over the earth!” and they left for all the earth.
壯馬出來，要在遍地走來走去。天使說：「你們只管在遍地走來走去。」牠們就照樣行了。
8 Then he called out to me and spoke to me and said, “Look at the ones that are going out to the north country; they will appease my spirit concerning the north country.”
他又呼叫我說：「看哪，往北方去的已在北方安慰我的心。」
9 So the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
耶和華的話臨到我說：
10 “Take an offering from the exiles—from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah—and go this same day and take it into the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah, who has come from Babylon.
「你要從被擄之人中取黑玳、多比雅、耶大雅的金銀。這三人是從巴比倫來到西番雅的兒子約西亞的家裏。當日你要進他的家，
11 Then take the silver and gold, make a crown and set it upon the head of Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest.
取這金銀做冠冕，戴在約撒答的兒子大祭司約書亞的頭上，
12 Speak to him and say, 'Yahweh of hosts says this: This man, his name is Branch! He will grow up where he is and will then build the temple of Yahweh!
對他說，萬軍之耶和華如此說：看哪，那名稱為大衛苗裔的，他要在本處長起來，並要建造耶和華的殿。
13 It is he who builds the temple of Yahweh, and he will be clothed with royal splendor, and will sit and rule on his throne. He will be a priest on his throne, and he will bear a counsel of peace between the two.
他要建造耶和華的殿，並擔負尊榮，坐在位上掌王權；又必在位上作祭司，使兩職之間籌定和平。
14 The crown will given to Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and for Hen son of Zephaniah as a memorial in the temple of Yahweh.
這冠冕要歸希連、多比雅、耶大雅，和西番雅的兒子賢，放在耶和華的殿裏為記念。」
15 Then those who are far off will come and build the temple of Yahweh, so you will know that Yahweh of hosts has sent me to you; for this will happen if you truly listen to the voice of Yahweh your God!'”
遠方的人也要來建造耶和華的殿，你們就知道萬軍之耶和華差遣我到你們這裏來。你們若留意聽從耶和華－你們上帝的話，這事必然成就。
