CHAP. VI.
The vision of the four chariots.
Crowns are ordered
for Jesus the high
priest, as a type of Christ.
1 And I turned, and lifted
up my eyes, and
saw: and behold four note chariots
came out from the midst
of 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 horses, and
strong ones.
4 And I answered, and
said to the Angel, that spoke
in me: What are these, my
lord?
5 And the Angel answered,
and said to me: These are the
four winds of the heaven,
which go forth to stand before
the Lord of all the earth.
6 That, in which were
the black horses, went forth
into note the land of the north,
and the white went forth after
them: and the grisled went
forth to note the land of the
south.
7 And they that were most
-- --
strong, went out, and sought
to go, and to run to and fro
through all the earth. And
he said: Go walk throughout
the earth: and they walked
throughout the earth.
8 And he called me, and
spoke to me, saying: Behold
they that go forth into
the land of the north, have
quieted my spirit in the land
of the north.
9 And the word of the
Lord came to me, saying:
10 Take of them of the
captivity, of Holdai, and of
Tobias, and of Idaias: and
thou shalt come in that day,
and shalt go into the house of
Josias, the son of Sophonias,
who came out of Babylon.
11 And thou shalt take
gold and silver: and shalt
make crowns, and thou shalt
set them on the head of Jesus
the son of Josedec the
high priest.
12 And thou shalt speak
to him, saying: Thus saith
the Lord of hosts, saying:
Behold A MAN THE Orient
IS HIS NAME: and under
him shall he spring up,
and shall build a temple to
the Lord.
13 Yea, he shall build a
temple to 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, and the counsel
of peace shall be note between
them both.
14 And the crowns shall
be to Helem, and Tobias, and
Idaias, and to Hem, the son
of Sophonias, a memorial in
the temple of the Lord.
15 And they that are far
off, shall come, and shall build
in the temple of the Lord:
and you shall know that the
Lord of hosts sent me to you.
But this shall come to pass,
if hearing you will hear the
voice of the Lord your God.
