Книга пророка Захарии 6
1 И обратихся и возведох очи мои и видех, и се, четыри колесницы исходящыя из средины двоих гор, горы же те беша горы медяны:
And again lifting up my eyes I saw four war-carriages coming out from between the two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.
2 в колеснице первей кони рыжы, и в колеснице вторей кони врани,
In the first war-carriage were red horses; and in the second, black horses;
3 и в колеснице третией кони бели, и в колеснице четвертей кони пестри скори.
And in the third, white horses; and in the fourth, horses of mixed colour.
4 И отвещах и рех ко Ангелу глаголющему во мне: что суть сия, господи?
And I made answer and said to the angel who was talking to me, What are these, my lord?
5 И отвеща Ангел глаголяй во мне и рече: сия суть четыри ветри небеснии, иже исходят предстати Господу всея земли.
And the angel, answering, said to me, These go out to the four winds of heaven from their place before the Lord of all the earth.
6 В нейже беху кони врани, исхождаху на землю северскую, и белии исхождаху вслед их, и пестрии исхождаху на землю южную,
The carriage in which are the black horses goes in the direction of the north country; the white go to the west; and those of mixed colour go in the direction of the south country.
7 и скории исхождаху и озираху еже оыти землю. И рече: идите, обыдите землю. И обыдоша землю.
And the red ones go to the east; and they made request that they might go up and down through the earth: and he said, Go up and down through the earth. So they went up and down through the earth.
8 И возопи и рече ко мне глаголя: се, исходящии на землю северскую упокоиша ярость Мою на земли северстей.
Then crying out to me, he said, See, those who are going to the north country have given rest to the spirit of the Lord in the north country.
9 И бысть слово Господне ко мне глаголя:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
10 приими, яже от плена от князей и от ключимых его и от разумевших его, и внидеши ты в день он в дом Иосии Софониина, грядущаго от Вавилона,
Take the offerings of those who went away as prisoners, from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, and from the family of Josiah, the son of Zephaniah, who have come from Babylon;
11 и приимеши сребро и злато, и сотвориши венцы, и возложиши на главу Иисусу Иоседекову, иерею великому,
And take silver and gold and make a crown and put it on the head of Zerubbabel;
12 и речеши к нему: сице глаголет Господь Вседержитель: се, Муж, Восток имя Ему, и под Ним возсияет, и созиждет храм Господень:
And say to him, These are the words of the Lord of armies: See, the man whose name is the Branch, under whom there will be fertile growth.
13 и той приимет добродетель, и сядет и возобладает на престоле Своем, и будет иерей одесную Его, и совет мирен будет между обема,
And he will be the builder of the Temple of the Lord; and the glory will be his, and he will take his place as ruler on the seat of power; and Joshua will be a priest at his right hand, and between them there will be a design of peace.
14 а венец будет терпящым и ключимым Ему и разумевшым Его, и в благодать сыну Софониину, и в псалом во храме Господни:
And the crown will be for grace to Heldai and Tobijah and Jedaiah and the son of Zephaniah, to keep their memory living in the house of the Lord.
15 и издалеча от сих приидут и созиждут во храме Господни, и уразумеете, яко Господь Вседержитель посла мя к вам: и будет, аще слушающе послушаете гласа Господа Бога вашего.
And those who are far away will come and be builders in the Temple of the Lord, and it will be clear to you that the Lord of armies has sent me to you.
