RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

1 And again I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.

1 Y TORNÉME, y alcé mis ojos y miré, y he aquí cuatro carros que salían de entre dos montes; y aquellos montes eran de metal.

2 In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;

2 En el primer carro había caballos bermejos, y en el segundo carro caballos negros,

3 and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grizzled strong horses.

3 Y en el tercer carro caballos blancos, y en el cuarto carro caballos overos ruciorodados.

4 Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?

4 Respondí entonces, y dije al ángel que conmigo hablaba: Señor mío, ¿qué es esto?

5 And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four winds of heaven, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.

5 Y el ángel me respondió, y díjome: Estos son los cuatro vientos de los cielos, que salen de donde están delante del Señor de toda la tierra.

6 [The chariot] wherein are the black horses goeth forth toward the north country; and the white went forth after them; and the grizzled went forth toward the south country.

6 En el que estaban los caballos negros, salieron hacia la tierra del aquilón; y los blancos salieron tras ellos; y lo overos salieron hacia la tierra del mediodía.

7 And the strong went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.

7 Y los rucios salieron, y se afanaron por ir á recorrer la tierra. Y dijo: Id, recorred la tierra. Y recorrieron la tierra.

8 Then cried he to me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, they that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.

8 Luego me llamó, y hablóme diciendo: Mira, los que salieron hacia la tierra del aquilón hicieron reposar mi espíritu en la tierra del aquilón.

9 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

9 Y fué á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

10 Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come thou the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, whither they are come from Babylon;

10 Toma de los del cautiverio, de Heldai, y de Tobías, y de Jedaía, los cuales volvieron de Babilonia; y vendrás tú en aquel día, y entrarás en casa de Josías hijo de Sefanías;

11 yea, take [of them] silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;

11 Tomarás pues plata y oro, y harás coronas, y las pondrás en la cabeza del gran sacerdote Josué, hijo de Josadac;

12 and speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, saying, Behold, the man whose name is the Branch: and he shall grow up out of his place; and he shall build the temple of Jehovah;

12 Y le hablarás, diciendo: Así ha hablado Jehová de los ejércitos, diciendo: He aquí el varón cuyo nombre es Pimpollo, el cual germinará de su lugar, y edificará el templo de Jehová:

13 even he shall build the temple of Jehovah; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.

13 El edificará el templo de Jehová, y él llevará gloria, y se sentará y dominará en su trono, y será sacerdote en su solio; y consejo de paz será entre ambos á dos.

14 And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of Jehovah.

14 Y Helem, y Tobías, y Jedaía, y Hen, hijo de Sefanías, tendrán coronas por memorial en el templo de Jehová.

15 And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of Jehovah; and ye shall know that Jehovah of hosts hath sent me unto you. And [this] shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of Jehovah your God.

15 Y los que están lejos vendrán y edificarán en el templo de Jehová, y conoceréis que Jehová de los ejércitos me ha enviado á vosotros. Y será [esto], si oyereis obedientes la voz de Jehová vuestro Dios.
