Zaharija 6
1 Obrnil sem se, povzdignil svoje oči, pogledal in glej, prišli so štirje vozovi izmed dveh gora in gori sta bili gori iz brona.
I looked up again, and [in the vision] I saw four chariots coming toward me. [They were coming] between two mountains [that were made] of bronze.
2 Pri prvem vozu so bili rdeči konji, pri drugem vozu črni konji,
The first chariot [was pulled by] red horses, the second chariot [was pulled by] black horses,
3 pri tretjem vozu beli konji in pri četrtem vozu osiveli in rjavi konji.
the third chariot [was pulled by] white horses, and the fourth chariot [was pulled by] spotted gray horses. They were all very strong horses.
4 Potem sem odgovoril in rekel angelu, ki je govoril z menoj: »Kaj so ti, moj gospod?«
I asked the angel who had been speaking to me, “Sir, what do those chariots mean?”
5 Angel je odgovoril in mi rekel: »To so štirje nebeški duhovi, ki gredo naprej, [potem ko so stali] pred Gospodom vse zemlje.«
The angel replied, “They have come from standing in the presence of the Lord who controls/rules the entire earth. They will go across the sky in four directions.
6 Črni konji, ki so pri njem, gredo v severno deželo. Beli gredo za njimi in osiveli gredo proti južni deželi.
The chariot [pulled by] black horses will go north, the [one pulled by] white horses will go west, the one [pulled by] spotted gray horses will go south.”
7 Rjavci pa so šli naprej in iskali, da bi lahko hodili sem ter tja po zemlji. Rekel je: »Pojdite od tod, hodite sem ter tja po zemlji.« Tako so hodili sem ter tja po zemlji.
When those powerful horses left, their [chariot-drivers] were eager to go throughout the world. [As they were leaving, ] the angel said to them, “Go throughout the world [and see what is happening]!” So that is what they did.
8 Potem mi je zaklical in mi spregovoril, rekoč: »Poglej, ti, ki gredo proti severni deželi, so utišali mojega duha v severni deželi.«
Then the angel called to me [and said], “Look/Listen, the [drivers of the] chariots that have gone north will do what the Spirit [of Yahweh wants them to do] there.”
9 K meni je prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
Then Yahweh gave me [another] message.
10 »Vzemi od teh iz ujetništva, torej od Heldája, od Tobija in od Jedajája, ki so prišli iz Babilona in pridi isti dan in pojdi v hišo Cefanjájevega sina Jošíja.
He said, “Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah will be bringing some silver and gold from the people who were (exiled in/forced to go to) Babylon. As soon as they arrive, go to the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah.
11 Potem vzemi srebro in zlato in naredi krone in jih postavi na glavo Ješúa, Jocadákovega sina, vélikega duhovnika
Take [some of that] silver and gold from them and make a crown. Then put it on the head of Jehozadak’s son Joshua, the Supreme Priest.
12 in mu spregovori, rekoč: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, rekoč: ›Glej, mož, katerega ime je MLADIKA; in rastel bo iz svojega kraja in zgradil bo Gospodov tempelj.
Tell him that [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say that the man who is called the Branch will come. He will leave the place where he is now, and he will [supervise those who] build my temple.
13 Celo on bo zgradil Gospodov tempelj in nosil bo slavo in sedel bo in vladal na svojem prestolu in bo duhovnik na svojem prestolu in namera miru bo med obema.‹«
He is the one who [will tell those who] will build my temple [what to do]. He will wear royal clothing and he will sit on his throne and rule. There will also be a priest [sitting] next to his throne, and the two of them will work together harmoniously.
14 Krone bodo Helému, Tobiju, Jedajáju in Cefanjájevemu sinu Henu v spomin, v Gospodovem templju.
The crown must be [kept] in my temple to remind people of what Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and Josiah [did for them].
15 Tisti, ki so daleč proč, bodo prišli in gradili v Gospodovem templju in vedeli boste, da me je Gospod nad bojevniki poslal k vam. In to se bo zgodilo, če boste marljivo ubogali glas Gospoda, svojega Boga.
People who are [living] far away will come and [help to] build my temple. When that happens, the people will know that [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, have sent you to them. [That will happen] if they faithfully obey me, Yahweh, your/their God.”
