Zechariah 6

1 And again I lifted up my eyes and saw four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze.

1 我又举目观看，见有四辆马车从两座铜山之间出来。

2 The first chariot had red horses, the second black horses,

2 第一辆车套着红马，第二辆车套着黑马，

3 the third white horses, and the fourth dappled horses—all of them strong.

3 第三辆车套着白马，第四辆车套着斑点马，马都很雄壮。

4 So I inquired of the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these, my lord?”

4 我问与我说话的天使：“主啊，这些马车是做什么的？”

5 And the angel told me, “These are the four spirits of heaven, going forth from their station before the Lord of all the earth.

5 天使说：“他们是侍立在天下之主面前的四灵 ，正在出发。”

6 The one with the black horses is going toward the land of the north, the one with the white horses toward the west, and the one with the dappled horses toward the south.”

6 套着黑马的车前往北方，套着白马的车前往西方 ，套着斑点马的车前往南方。

7 As the strong horses went out, they were eager to go and patrol the earth; and the LORD said, “Go and patrol the earth.” So they patrolled the earth.

7 这些雄壮的马出来，迫不及待地要巡察大地。天使说：“你们去巡察大地吧！”它们便遵命而行。

8 Then the LORD summoned me and said, “Behold, those going to the land of the north have given rest to My Spirit in the land of the north.”

8 他又高声对我说：“看啊，那些到北方去的已在那里使我的心得到安慰。”

9 The word of the LORD also came to me, saying,

9 耶和华对我说：

10 “Take an offering from the exiles—from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon—and go that same day to the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah.

10 “被掳到巴比伦的黑玳、多比雅和耶大雅已经回来了，你要收集他们奉献的金银，并在当天去西番雅的儿子约西亚家。

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

11 你要用这些金银制作冠冕，戴在约撒答的儿子约书亚大祭司头上，

12 And you are to tell him that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Here is a man whose name is the Branch, and He will branch out from His place and build the temple of the LORD.

12 告诉他，万军之耶和华说，‘看啊，那被称为大卫苗裔的要从自己的地方兴起，建造耶和华的殿。

13 Yes, He will build the temple of the LORD; He will be clothed in splendor and will sit on His throne and rule. And He will be a priest on His throne, and there will be peaceful counsel between the two.’

13 祂必建造耶和华的殿，带着威荣坐在宝座上掌权，也必有祭司坐在宝座上 ，两者和谐共存。’

14 The crown will reside in the temple of the LORD as a memorial to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and the gracious son of Zephaniah.

14 这冠冕要留在耶和华的殿中，作为对黑玳 、多比雅、耶大雅和西番雅的儿子约西亚 的纪念。”

15 Even those far away will come and build the temple of the LORD, and you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent Me to you. This will happen if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.”

15 远方的人也要来建造耶和华的殿。那时你们便知道，是万军之耶和华差遣我到你们这里来的。你们若全心遵从你们上帝耶和华的话，这事就必成就。
