< Zechariah 6 >

1 And Y was conuertid, and reiside myn iyen, and siy, and lo! foure horsid cartis goynge out of the myddil of tweyne hillis, and the hillis weren hillis of bras.
我又举目观看,见有四辆车从两山中间出来;那山是铜山。
2 In the firste foure horsid carte weren reed horsis, and in the secounde foure horsid carte weren blac horsis;
第一辆车套着红马,第二辆车套着黑马。
3 and in the thridde foure horsid carte weren white horsis, and in the fourthe foure horsid carte weren dyuerse horsis, and stronge.
第三辆车套着白马,第四辆车套着有斑点的壮马。
4 And Y answeride, and seide to the aungel that spak in me, What ben these thingis, my lord?
我就问与我说话的天使说:“主啊,这是什么意思?”
5 And the aungel aunsweride, and seide to me, These ben foure wyndis of heuene, whiche goen out, that thei stonde bifor the lordschipere of al erthe.
天使回答我说:“这是天的四风,是从普天下的主面前出来的。”
6 In which weren blake horsis, wenten out in to the lond of the north; and the white wenten out aftir hem; and the dyuerse wenten out to the lond of the south.
套着黑马的车往北方去,白马跟随在后;有斑点的马往南方去。
7 Forsothe thei that weren strengeste wenten out, and souyten for to go, and renne aboute bi al erthe. And he seide, Go ye, and walke ye thorouy the erthe. And thei walkiden thorouy erthe.
壮马出来,要在遍地走来走去。天使说:“你们只管在遍地走来走去。”它们就照样行了。
8 And he clepide me, and spak to me, and seide, Lo! thei that goon out in to lond of north, maden my spirit for to reste in the lond of north.
他又呼叫我说:“看哪,往北方去的已在北方安慰我的心。”
9 And the word of the Lord was maad to me, and seide,
耶和华的话临到我说:
10 Take thou of the transmygracioun, ether caitiftee, of Oldai, and of Tobie, and of Idaye; and thou schalt come in that dai, and schalt entre in to the hous of Josie, sone of Sofonye, that camen fro Babiloyne.
“你要从被掳之人中取黑玳、多比雅、耶大雅的金银。这三人是从巴比伦来到西番雅的儿子约西亚的家里。当日你要进他的家,
11 And thou schalt take gold and siluer, and schalt make corouns, and putte on the heed of Jhesu, the greet preest, sone of Josedech;
取这金银做冠冕,戴在约撒答的儿子大祭司约书亚的头上,
12 and schalt speke to hym, and seie, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, seiynge, Lo! a man, Comynge forth, ether Borun, is his name, and vndir him it schal sprynge. And he schal bilde a temple to the Lord,
对他说,万军之耶和华如此说:看哪,那名称为大卫苗裔的,他要在本处长起来,并要建造耶和华的殿。
13 and he schal make a temple to the Lord; and he schal bere glorie, and schal sitte, and schal be lord on his seete; and the preest schal be on his seete, and counsel of pees schal be bitwixe hem tweyne.
他要建造耶和华的殿,并担负尊荣,坐在位上掌王权;又必在位上作祭司,使两职之间筹定和平。
14 And corouns schulen be to Helem, and to Tobie, and to Idaie, and to Hen, sone of Sofonye, a memorial in the temple of the Lord.
这冠冕要归希连、多比雅、耶大雅,和西番雅的儿子贤,放在耶和华的殿里为记念。”
15 And thei that ben fer, schulen come, and bilde in the temple of the Lord; and ye schulen wite, that the Lord of oostis sente me to you. Sotheli this thing schal be, if bi heryng ye schulen here the vois of youre Lord God.
远方的人也要来建造耶和华的殿,你们就知道万军之耶和华差遣我到你们这里来。你们若留意听从耶和华—你们 神的话,这事必然成就。
