Zacarias 6

SAGRADA BIBLIA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Levantando de novo os olhos, olhei e vi quatro carros que saíam dentre duas montanhas: estas eram montanhas de bronze.	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.
2 No primeiro carro havia cavalos vermelhos; no segundo cavalos negros;	2 In the first chariot were red horses, and in the second chariot were black horses,
3 no terceiro, cavalos brancos e, no quarto, cavalos baios.	3 and in the third chariot were white horses, and in the fourth chariot were speckled horses, and they were strong.
4 Tomando então a palavra, perguntei ao anjo que falava comigo: Que carros são esses, meu Senhor?	4 And I responded and said to the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these, my lord?”
5 Ele respondeu-me: Eles vão para os quatro ventos do céu e deixam o lugar onde se apresentaram diante do Senhor de toda a terra.	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.”
6 Os cavalos negros dirigem-se para o norte, os brancos para o ocidente, os baios para o sul.	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.
7 Partiram fogosos e procuraram lançar-se para percorrer a terra. O Senhor disse-lhes: Ide, percorrei a terra! E eles puseram-se a percorrer a terra.	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.
8 Ele chamou-me e disse: Olha: os que se dirigem para o norte vão saciar a minha cólera contra a terra do norte.	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.”
9 A palavra do Senhor foi-me dirigida nestes termos:	9 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
10 Vai e recebe a oferta da comunidade, os dons de Heldai, Tobias e Jedaia; vai hoje mesmo à casa de Josias, filho de Sofonias, pois se dirigiram para lá de volta de Babilônia.	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.
11 Tomarás prata e ouro e farás uma coroa, que porás sobre a cabeça do sumo sacerdote Josué, filho de Josedec,	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.
12 e lhe dirás: Assim fala o Senhor dos exércitos: Eis o homem, cujo nome é Gérmen; alguma coisa vai germinar de sua linhagem.	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.
13 Ele é que reconstruirá o templo do Senhor: usará insígnias reais e sentar-se-á como rei sobre o seu trono; terá um sacerdote à sua direita, e reinará a perfeita paz entre eles,	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.
14 A coroa será conservada no templo do Senhor em memória de Heldai, Tobias e Jedaia, como também de Josias, filho de Sofonias.	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.
15 Virão então aqueles que se acham distantes para trabalhar na construção do templo do Senhor, e sabereis que fui enviado a vós pelo Senhor dos exércitos. Tudo isso há de realizar-se, se fordes dóceis à voz do Senhor, vosso Deus.	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.
