Prophetia Zachariae

Zachariae, chapter 6, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 6 Vulgate

   1 Et rursus levavi oculos meos et vidi: et ecce quattuor quadrigae egredientes de medio duorum montium; et montes, montes aerei.
   2 In quadriga prima equi rufi, et in quadriga secunda equi nigri,
   3 et in quadriga tertia equi albi, et in quadriga quarta equi varii.
   4 Et respondi et dixi ad angelum, qui loquebatur in me: "Quid sunt haec, domine mi?".
   5 Et respondit angelus et ait ad me: "Isti sunt quattuor venti caeli, qui egrediuntur, postquam steterunt coram Dominatore omnis terrae".
   6 In qua erant equi nigri, egrediebantur in terram aquilonis, et albi egressi sunt post eos, et varii egressi sunt ad terram austri.
   7 Et equi fortes exierunt et quaerebant ire et discurrere per terram. Et dixit: "Ite, perambulate terram". Et perambulaverunt terram.
   8 Et vocavit me et locutus est ad me dicens: "Ecce, qui egrediuntur in terram aquilonis requiescere fecerunt spiritum meum in terra aquilonis".
   9 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me dicens:
   10 "Sume ab his, qui de captivitate sunt, ab Holdai et a Thobia et ab Iedaia, et venies tu in die illa et intrabis domum Iosiae filii Sophoniae, qui venerunt de Babylone.
   11 Et sumes argentum et aurum et facies coronam et pones in capite Iesua filii Iosedec, sacerdotis magni,
   12 et loqueris ad eum dicens: Haec ait Dominus exercituum dicens: Ecce vir, Germen nomen eius; et in loco suo aliquid germinabit et aedificabit templum Domini.
   13 Et ipse exstruet templum Domini; et ipse portabit gloriam et sedebit et dominabitur super solio suo; et erit sacerdos ad dexteram eius, et consilium pacis erit inter illos duos.
   14 Et corona erit Helem et Thobiae et Iedaiae et Hen filio Sophoniae memoriale in templo Domini.
   15 Et qui procul sunt, venient et aedificabunt in templo Domini; et scietis quia Dominus exercituum misit me ad vos. Erit autem hoc, si oboedieritis voci Domini Dei vestri" ".

King James Version

   1 And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.
   2 In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
   3 And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses.
   4 Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?
   5 And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
   6 The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grisled go forth toward the south country.
   7 And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.
   8 Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.
   9 ¶ And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
   10 Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, which are come from Babylon, and come thou the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah;
   11 Then take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest;
   12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:
   13 Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
   14 And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of the LORD.
   15 And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the LORD, and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.
