Zacarías 6
1 Alcé de nuevo mis ojos y miré, y he aquí cuatro carros que salían de entre dos montes, y los montes eran montes de bronce.
And I turned, and I lifted up my eyes and I saw. And behold, four four-horse chariots went out from the middle of two mountains. And the mountains were mountains of brass.
2 En el primer carro había caballos bermejos; en el segundo, caballos negros;
In the first chariot were red horses, and in the second chariot were black horses,
3 en el tercero, caballos blancos, y en el cuarto, caballos manchados, vigorosos.
and in the third chariot were white horses, and in the fourth chariot were speckled horses, and they were strong.
4 Entonces tomé la palabra y dije al ángel que hablaba conmigo: «¿Qué son estos, señor mío?»
And I responded and said to the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these, my lord?”
5 A lo que respondiendo el ángel me dijo: «Estos son los cuatro vientos del cielo que vienen de la presencia del Señor de toda la tierra».
And the angel answered and said to me, “These are the four winds of heaven, which go forth to stand in the presence of the Sovereign of all the earth.”
6 El (carro) de los caballos negros se dirige hacia la tierra del Norte; el de los blancos va tras ellos; y el de los manchados sale hacia la tierra del Mediodía.
The one with the black horses was departing into the land of the North, and the white went forth after them, and the speckled went forth towards the land of the South.
7 Y salieron los vigorosos que anhelaban ponerse en marcha para recorrer la tierra. (El ángel les) dijo: «¡Id, recorred la tierra!» Y ellos recorrieron la tierra.
Yet those who were the most strong, went out, and sought to go and to roam quickly through all the earth. And he said, “Go, walk throughout the earth.” And they walked throughout the earth.
8 Entonces me llamó, y me habló, diciendo: «Mira, los que van hacia la tierra del Norte han aplacado mi espíritu en la tierra septentrional».
And he called me and spoke with me, saying, “Behold, those who go forth to the land of the North, have quieted my spirit in the land of the North.”
9 Y me llegó la palabra de Yahvé en estos términos:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
10 “Toma (las ofrendas) de los del cautiverio: de Holdai, de Tobías y de Idaías que han venido de Babilonia. En aquel mismo día irás y entrarás en la casa de Josías, hijo de Sofonías.
From those of the captivity, take from Heldai, and from Tobijah, and from Jedaiah. You will approach in that day, and you will go into the house of Josiah, the son of Zephaniah, who came from Babylon.
11 Tomarás la plata y el oro, y harás una corona que pondrás sobre la cabeza del Sumo Sacerdote Jesús, hijo de Josedec;
And you will take gold and silver; and you will make crowns, and you will set them on the head of Jesus the son of Jehozadak, the high priest.
12 y le hablarás en estos términos: Así dice Yahvé de los ejércitos: He aquí el hombre cuyo nombre es Pimpollo, el cual germinará en su lugar y edificará el Templo de Yahvé.
And you will speak to him, saying: Thus says the Lord of hosts, saying: Behold, a man; the Rising is his name. And under him, he will rise up, and he will build a temple to the Lord.
13 Él edificará el Templo de Yahvé, y será revestido de gloria; y se sentará para reinar sobre su trono. Él será sacerdote sobre su solio, y habrá espíritu de paz entre ambos.
And he will raise a temple to the Lord. And he will carry the glory, and he will sit and rule upon his throne. And he will be a priest upon his throne, and a counsel of peace will be between the two of them.
14 Y para Hélem, Tobías, Idaías y Hen, hijo de Sofonías, las coronas servirán de recuerdo (y quedarán) en el Templo de Yahvé.
And the crowns will be to Heldai, and Tobijah, and Jedaiah, as well as to Hem, the son of Zephaniah, as a memorial in the temple of the Lord.
15 Vendrán los que están en lugares remotos y edificarán el Templo de Yahvé; y conoceréis que Yahvé de los ejércitos me ha enviado a vosotros. Esto sucederá si obedeciereis fielmente la voz de Yahvé, vuestro Dios».”
And those who are far away, will approach, and will build in the temple of the Lord. And you will know that the Lord of hosts sent me to you. Yet this shall be only if, when hearing, you will have heeded the voice of the Lord your God.
