1 T hen I turned and raised my eyes and looked, and behold, four chariots were coming from between two mountains, and the mountains were mountains of bronze.

De novo levantei os meus olhos, e olhei, e eis quatro carros que saíam dentre dois montes, e estes montes eram montes de bronze.

2 W ith the first chariot were red horses, with the second chariot black horses,

No primeiro carro eram cavalos vermelhos, no segundo carro cavalos pretos,

3 w ith the third chariot white horses, and with the fourth chariot dappled horses—strong steeds.

no terceiro carro cavalos brancos, e no quarto carro cavalos baios com malhas.

4 T hen I answered and said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?”

Então, dirigindo-me ao anjo que falava comigo, perguntei: Que são estes, meu senhor?

5 A nd the angel answered and said to me, “These are four spirits of heaven, who go out from their station before the Lord of all the earth.

Respondeu-me o anjo: Estes estão saindo aos quatro ventos do céu, depois de se apresentarem perante o Senhor de toda a terra.

6 T he one with the black horses is going to the north country, the white are going after them, and the dappled are going toward the south country.”

O carro em que estão os cavalos pretos sai para a terra do norte, os brancos são para o oeste, e os malhados para a terra do sul;

7 T hen the strong steeds went out, eager to go, that they might walk to and fro throughout the earth. And He said, “Go, walk to and fro throughout the earth.” So they walked to and fro throughout the earth.

e os cavalos baios saíam, e procuravam ir por diante, para percorrerem a terra. E ele disse: Ide, percorrei a terra. E eles a percorriam.

8 A nd He called to me, and spoke to me, saying, “See, those who go toward the north country have given rest to My Spirit in the north country.” The Command to Crown Joshua

Então clamou para mim, dizendo: Eis que aqueles que saíram para a terra do norte fazem repousar na terra do norte o meu Espírito.

9 T hen the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

Ainda me veio a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:

10 “ Receive the gift from the captives—from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have come from Babylon—and go the same day and enter the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah.

Recebe dos que foram levados cativos, a saber, de Heldai, de Tobias, e de Jedaías, e vem tu no mesmo dia, e entra na casa de Josias, filho de Sofonias, para a qual vieram de Babilônia;

11 T ake the silver and gold, make an elaborate crown, and set it on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest.

recebe, digo, prata e ouro, e faze coroas, e põe-nas na cabeça do sumo sacerdote Josué, filho de Jeozadaque;

12 T hen speak to him, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, saying: “Behold, the Man whose name is the BRANCH! From His place He shall branch out, And He shall build the temple of the Lord;

e fala-lhe, dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor dos exércitos: Eis aqui o homem cujo nome é Renovo; ele brotará do seu lugar, e edificará o templo do Senhor.

13 Y es, He shall build the temple of the Lord. He shall bear the glory, And shall sit and rule on His throne; So He shall be a priest on His throne, And the counsel of peace shall be between them both.”’

Ele mesmo edificará o templo do Senhor; receberá a honra real, assentar-se-á no seu trono, e dominará. E Josué, o sacerdote, ficará ã sua direita; e haverá entre os dois o conselho de paz.

14 “ Now the elaborate crown shall be for a memorial in the temple of the Lord for Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and Hen the son of Zephaniah.

Essas coroas servirão a Helem, e a Tobias, e a Jedaías, e a Hem, filho de Sofonias, de memorial no templo do Senhor.

15 E ven those from afar shall come and build the temple of the Lord. Then you shall know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you. And this shall come to pass if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God.”

E aqueles que estão longe virão, e ajudarão a edificar o templo do Senhor; e vós sabereis que o Senhor dos exercitos me tem enviado a vós; e isso sucederá, se diligentemente obedecerdes a voz do Senhor vosso Deus.
