1 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.1 Levanté los ojos de nuevo y vi cuatro carros que salían de entre dos montañas. Las montañas eran de bronce.
2 In the first chariot were red horses, and in the second chariot were black horses,2 El primer carro iba tirado por caballos rojos; el segundo, por caballos negros;
3 and in the third chariot were white horses, and in the fourth chariot were speckled horses, and they were strong.3 el tercero, por caballos blancos, y el cuarto, por caballos pardos, robustos.
4 And I responded and said to the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these, my lord?”4 Pregunté al mensajero que hablaba conmigo: —¿Qué es todo esto, señor?—¿Adónde llevan el recipiente?
5 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.”5 Me respondió: —Los que salen son los cuatro vientos celestes, los que asisten al Señor de toda la tierra.
6 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.6 Los caballos negros salen hacia el país del norte; los blancos, hacia el oeste; los pardos, hacia el sur.
7 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.7 Se adelantaron los caballos robustos, impacientes por recorrer la tierra. El mensajero les dijo: «¡Salid a recorrer la tierra!». Y recorrieron la tierra.
8 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.”8 El mensajero me gritó así: «Mira, los que han salido hacia el país del norte desfogarán mi cólera contra el país del norte».
9 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:9 Me llegó la palabra del Señor en estos términos:
10 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.10 «Toma ofrendas de los exiliados, de Jelday, de Tobías y de Yedaías, y vete ese día a casa de Josías, hijo de Sofonías, pues acaban de llegar de Babilonia.
11 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.11 Toma plata y oro, haz una corona y ponla en la cabeza de Josué, hijo de Josadac, el sumo sacerdote.
12 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.12 Y le dirás: «Esto dice el Señor del universo: Este es el hombre llamado Germen; | germinará de sus raíces | y construirá el santuario del Señor.
13 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.13 Él construirá el santuario del Señor; asumirá la dignidad real, se sentará en su trono y reinará. En su trono también estará un sacerdote, y la concordia reinará entre ambos.
14 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.14 La corona será un memorial en el santuario del Señor para Jelday, Tobías y Yedaías, así como para la generosidad del hijo de Sofonías.
15 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.15 Y los que vengan de lejos construirán el santuario del Señor y sabrán que el Señor del universo me envió a ellos, y escucharán atentamente al Señor su Dios».
