< Zaccharias Propheta 6 >
1 Et conversus sum, et levavi oculos meos, et vidi: et ecce quattuor quadrigæ egredientes de medio duorum montium: et montes, montes ærei.
And again I lifted up my eyes, and looked. And, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains, and the mountains were mountains of brass.
2 In quadriga prima equi rufi, et in quadriga secunda equi nigri,
In the first chariot were red horses, and in the second chariot black horses,
3 et in quadriga tertia equi albi, et in quadriga quarta equi varii, et fortes.
and in the third chariot white horses, and in the fourth chariot strong grizzled horses.
4 Et respondi, et dixi ad angelum, qui loquebatur in me: Quid sunt hæc, domine mi?
Then I answered and said to the agent who talked with me, What are these, my lord?
5 Et respondit angelus, et ait ad me: Isti sunt quattuor venti cæli, qui egrediuntur ut stent coram Dominatore omnis terræ.
And the agent answered and said to me, These are the four winds of heaven, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
6 In qua erant equi nigri, egrediebantur in terram Aquilonis: et albi egressi sunt post eos: et varii egressi sunt ad terram Austri.
The chariot in which are the black horses goes forth toward the north country, and the white went forth after them, and the grizzled went forth toward the south country.
7 Qui autem erant robustissimi, exierunt, et quærebant ire, et discurrere per omnem terram. Et dixit: Ite, perambulate terram. et perambulaverunt terram.
And the strong ones went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth. And he said, Get you from here. Walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.
8 Et vocavit me, et locutus est ad me, dicens: Ecce qui egrediuntur in terram Aquilonis, requiescere fecerunt spiritum meum in terra Aquilonis.
Then he cried to me, and spoke to me, saying, Behold, those who go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.
9 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
10 Sume a transmigratione ab Holdai, et a Tobia, et ab Idaia; et venies tu in die illa, et intrabis domum Iosiæ, filii Sophoniæ, qui venerunt de Babylone.
Take from those of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, and come thou the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon.
11 Et sumes aurum, et argentum: et facies coronas, et pones in capite Iesu filii Iosedec sacerdotis magni,
Yea, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest.
12 et loqueris ad eum, dicens: Hæc ait Dominus exercituum, dicens: ECCE VIR ORIENS NOMEN EIUS: et subter eum orietur, et ædificabit templum Domino.
And speak to him, saying, Thus speaks Jehovah of hosts, saying, Behold, the man whose name is the Branch. And he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of Jehovah,
13 Et ipse extruet templum Domino: et ipse portabit gloriam, et sedebit, et dominabitur super solio suo: et erit sacerdos super solio suo, et consilium pacis erit inter illos duos.
even he shall build the temple of Jehovah. 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.
14 Et coronæ erunt Helem, et Tobiæ, et Idaiæ, et Hem, filio Sophoniæ, memoriale in templo Domini.
And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of Jehovah.
15 Et qui procul sunt, venient, et ædificabunt in templo Domini: et scietis quia Dominus exercituum misit me ad vos. Erit autem hoc, si auditu audieritis vocem Domini Dei vestri.
And those who are far off shall come and build in the temple of Jehovah. And ye shall know that Jehovah of hosts has sent me to you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of Jehovah your God.
