< Zacarias 6 >

1 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.
And I turn back, and lift up mine eyes, and look, and lo, four chariots are coming forth from between two of the mountains, and the mountains [are] mountains of brass.
2 No primeiro carro eram cavalos vermelhos, e no segundo carro cavalos pretos,
In the first chariot [are] red horses, and in the second chariot brown horses,
3 E no terceiro carro cavalos brancos, e no quarto carro cavalos saraivados, que eram fortes.
and in the third chariot white horses, and in the fourth chariot strong grisled horses.
4 E respondi, e disse ao anjo que falava comigo: Que é isto, Senhor meu?
And I answer and say unto the messenger who is speaking with me, 'What [are] these, my lord?'
5 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.
And the messenger answereth and saith unto me, 'These [are] four spirits of the heavens coming forth from presenting themselves before the Lord of the whole earth.
6 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.
The brown horses that [are] therein, are coming forth unto the land of the north; and the white have come forth unto their hinder part; and the grisled have come forth unto the land of the south;
7 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.
and the strong ones have come forth, and they seek to go to walk up and down in the earth;' and he saith, 'Go, walk up and down in the earth;' and they walk up and down in the earth.
8 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.
And he calleth me, and speaketh unto me, saying, 'See, those coming forth unto the land of the north have caused My Spirit to rest in the land of the north.'
9 E a palavra do Senhor veio a mim, dizendo:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
10 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.
to take of the captivity (who came from Babylon) from Heldai, from Tobijah, and from Jedaiah, 'and thou hast come in — thou, in that day, yea, thou hast come into the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah,
11 Toma, digo, prata e ouro, e faze corôas, e põe-as na cabeça de Josué, filho de Josadac, sumo sacerdote.
and thou hast taken silver and gold, and hast made a crown, and hast placed on the head of Joshua son of Josedech, the high priest,
12 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.
and hast spoken unto him, saying: Thus spake Jehovah of Hosts, saying: Lo, a man! A Shoot — [is] his name, And from his place he doth shoot up, And he hath built the temple of Jehovah.
13 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.
Yea, he doth build the temple of Jehovah, And he doth bear away honour, And he hath sat and ruled on His throne, And hath been a priest on His throne, And a counsel of peace is between both.
14 E estas corôas serão de Helem, e de Tobias, e de Jedaia, e de Chen, filho de Sofonias, por memorial no templo do Senhor.
And the crown is to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of Jehovah.
15 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.
And the far-off come in, and they have built in the temple of Jehovah, and ye have known that Jehovah of Hosts hath sent me unto you, yea, it hath come to pass, if ye do certainly hearken to the voice of Jehovah your God.'
