< Zacarías 6 >

1 Volví a levantar mis ojos. Miré y vi cuatro carrozas de bronce que salían de entre dos montañas.
And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, four chariots coming out from between two mountains; and the mountains were brazen mountains.
2 En la primera carroza los caballos eran bermejos, en la segunda carroza, caballos negros,
In the first chariot [were] red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
3 en la tercera carroza, caballos blancos, y en la cuarta carroza eran caballos overos grisáceos.
and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot piebald [and] ash-colored horses.
4 Y dije al ángel que hablaba conmigo: ʼadón mío, ¿qué es esto?
And I answered and said to the angel that talked with me, What are these, my Lord?
5 Y el ángel me respondió: Estos son los cuatro vientos de los cielos, que salen después de presentarse delante del ʼAdón de toda la tierra.
And the angel that talked with me answered and said, These are the four winds of heaven, [and] they are going forth to stand before the Lord of all the earth.
6 El de los caballos negros sale hacia la tierra del Norte, el de los blancos sale tras ellos y el de los overos sale hacia la tierra del Sur.
[As for the chariot] in which were the black horses, they went out to the land of the north; and the white went out after them; and the piebald went out to the land of the south.
7 Los overos que salían estaban impacientes por recorrer la tierra. Y [ʼAdonay] dijo: ¡Vayan, recorran la tierra! Y en efecto, ellos recorrieron la tierra de un lado a otro.
And the ash-colored went out, and looked to go and compass the earth: and he said, Go, and compass the earth. And they compassed the earth.
8 Luego me habló: Aquí están los que van hacia la tierra del Norte quienes hicieron reposar mi Espíritu en la tierra del Norte.
And he cried out and spoke to me, saying, Behold, these go out to the land of the north, and they have quieted mine anger in the land of the north.
9 Otra vez tuve revelación de Yavé que decía:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
10 Toma ofrenda de los del cautiverio que regresaron de Babilonia: de Heldai, de Tobías y de Jedaías. El mismo día vé y entra en casa de Josías, hijo de Sofonías.
Take the things of the captivity from the chief men, and from the useful men of it, and from them that have understood it; and you shall enter in that day into the house of Josias the son of Sophonias that came out of Babylon.
11 Toma la plata y el oro y haz una gran corona. La pondrás en la cabeza de Josué, hijo de Josadac, el sumo sacerdote.
And you shall take silver and gold, and make crowns, and you shall put [them] upon the head of Jesus the son of Josedec the high priest;
12 Hablarás de él, y dirás: Yavé de las huestes dice: Aquí está el varón cuyo Nombre es El Renuevo. Brotará de sus raíces y edificará la Casa de Yavé.
and you shall say to him, Thus says the Lord Almighty; Behold the man whose name is The Branch; and he shall spring up from his stem, and build the house of the Lord.
13 Sí, edificará la Casa de Yavé y tendrá la gloria. Se sentará y reinará sobre su trono. Es Sacerdote sobre su trono, y habrá consejo de paz entre ambos.
And he shall receive power, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and there shall be a priest on his right hand, and a peaceful counsel shall be between [them] both.
14 La gran corona le será un recuerdo a Helem, Tobías, Jedaías y Hen, hijo de Sofonías en la Casa de Yavé.
And the crown shall be to them that wait patiently, and to the useful men of the captivity, and to them that have known it, and for the favor of the son of Sophonias, and for a psalm in the house of the Lord.
15 Los que están lejos vendrán y edificarán la Casa de Yavé, y sabrán que Yavé de las huestes me envió a ustedes. Así será si diligentemente obedecen la voz de Yavé su ʼElohim.
And they [that are] far from them shall come and build in the house of the Lord, and you shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you: and [this] shall come to pass, if you will diligently listen to the voice of the Lord your God.
