Zechariah 6 — WEBC
6Verse 1Again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, four chariots came out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of bronze.Verse 2In the first chariot were red horses. In the second chariot were black horses.Verse 3In the third chariot were white horses. In the fourth chariot were dappled horses, all of them powerful.Verse 4Then I asked the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?”Verse 5The angel answered me, “These are the four winds of the sky, which go out from standing before the Lord of all the earth.Verse 6The one with the black horses goes out toward the north country; and the white went out after them; and the dappled went out toward the south country.”Verse 7The strong went out, and sought to go that they might walk back and forth through the earth. He said, “Go around and through the earth!” So they walked back and forth through the earth.Verse 8Then he called to me, and spoke to me, saying, “Behold, those who go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.”Verse 9Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,Verse 10“Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon.Verse 11Yes, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;Verse 12and speak to him, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies says, “Behold, the man whose name is the Branch! He will grow up out of his place; and he will build Yahweh’s temple.Verse 13He will build Yahweh’s temple. He will bear the glory, and will sit and rule on his throne. He will be a priest on his throne. The counsel of peace will be between them both.Verse 14The crowns shall be to Helem, to Tobijah, to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in Yahweh’s temple.Verse 15Those who are far off shall come and build in Yahweh’s temple; and you shall know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me to you. This will happen, if you will diligently obey Yahweh your God’s voice.”’”+
