< Zechariah 6 >

1 Again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, four chariots came out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of bronze.
E outra vez levantei os meus olhos, e olhei, e eis que vi quatro carros que sairam dentre dois montes, e estes montes eram montes de metal.
2 In the first chariot were red horses. In the second chariot were black horses.
No primeiro carro eram cavalos vermelhos, e no segundo carro cavalos pretos,
3 In the third chariot were white horses. In the fourth chariot were dappled horses, all of them powerful.
E no terceiro carro cavalos brancos, e no quarto carro cavalos saraivados, que eram fortes.
4 Then I asked the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?”
E respondi, e disse ao anjo que falava comigo: Que é isto, Senhor meu?
5 The angel answered me, “These are the four winds of the sky, which go out from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
E o anjo respondeu, e me disse: Estes são os quatro ventos do céu, saindo de onde estavam perante o Senhor de toda a terra.
6 The one with the black horses goes out toward the north country; and the white went out after them; and the dappled went out toward the south country.”
O carro em que estão os cavalos pretos, sai para a terra do norte, e os brancos saem atráz deles, e os saraivados saem para a terra do sul.
7 The strong went out, and sought to go that they might walk back and forth through the earth. He said, “Go around and through the earth!” So they walked back and forth through the earth.
E os cavalos fortes saiam, e procuravam ir por diante, para andarem pela terra. E ele disse: Ide, andai pela terra. E andavam pela terra.
8 Then he called to me, and spoke to me, saying, “Behold, those who go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.”
E me chamou, e me falou, dizendo: Eis que aqueles que sairam para a terra do norte fizeram repousar o meu espírito na terra do norte.
9 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
E a palavra do Senhor veio a mim, dizendo:
10 “Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon.
Toma dos que foram levados cativos: de Heldai, de Tobias, e de Jedaia (e vem naquele dia, e entra na casa de Josias, filho de Sofonias), os quais vieram de Babilônia.
11 Yes, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
Toma, digo, prata e ouro, e faze corôas, e põe-as na cabeça de Josué, filho de Josadac, sumo sacerdote.
12 and speak to him, saying, ‘The LORD of Hosts says, “Behold, the man whose name is the Branch! He will grow up out of his place; and he will build the LORD’s temple.
E fala-lhe, dizendo: Assim fala o Senhor dos exércitos, dizendo: Eis aqui o homem cujo nome é o Renovo que brotará do seu lugar, e edificará o templo do Senhor.
13 He will build the LORD’s temple. He will bear the glory, and will sit and rule on his throne. He will be a priest on his throne. The counsel of peace will be between them both.
Ele mesmo edificará o templo do Senhor, e levará ele a glória, e assentar-se-á, e dominará no seu trono, e será sacerdote no seu trono, e conselho de paz haverá entre eles ambos.
14 The crowns shall be to Helem, to Tobijah, to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the LORD’s temple.
E estas corôas serão de Helem, e de Tobias, e de Jedaia, e de Chen, filho de Sofonias, por memorial no templo do Senhor.
15 Those who are far off shall come and build in the LORD’s temple; and you shall know that the LORD of Hosts has sent me to you. This will happen, if you will diligently obey the LORD your God’s voice.”’”
E aqueles que estão longe virão, e edificarão no templo do Senhor, e vós sabereis que o Senhor dos exércitos me tem enviado a vós; e isto acontecerá assim, se ouvirdes mui atentos a voz do Senhor vosso Deus.
