< Zaccharias Propheta 6 >

1 et conversus sum et levavi oculos meos et vidi et ecce quattuor quadrigae egredientes de medio duorum montium et montes montes aerei
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 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 haec 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 caeli qui egrediuntur ut stent coram Dominatore omnis terrae
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 quo erant equi nigri egrediebantur in terra 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 quaerebant 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 Oldai et a Tobia et ab Idaia et venies tu in die illa et intrabis domum Iosiae filii Sofoniae 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 argentum et aurum et facies coronas et pones in capite Iesu filii Iosedech 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 haec ait Dominus exercituum dicens ecce vir Oriens nomen eius et subter eum orietur et aedificabit 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 duos illos
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 coronae erunt Helem et Tobiae et Idaiae et Hen filio Sofoniae 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 aedificabunt 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.
