RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

1 And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, four chariots coming out from between two mountains; and the mountains were brazen mountains.

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 piebald [and] ash-coloured horses.

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

4 And I answered and said to 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 that talked with me answered and said, These are the four winds of heaven, [and] they are going forth to stand 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 [As for the chariot] in which were the black horses, they went out to the land of the north; and the white went out after them; and the piebald went out to the land of the south.

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 ash-coloured went out, and looked to go and compass the earth: and he said, Go, and compass the earth. And they compassed 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 And he cried out and spoke to me, saying, Behold, these go out to the land of the north, and they have quieted mine anger in the land of the north.

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 the Lord came to me, saying,

9 Y fué á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

10 Take the things of the captivity from the chief men, and from the useful men of it, and from them that have understood it; and thou shalt enter in that day into the house of Josias the son of Sophonias that came out of 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 And thou shalt take silver and gold, and make crowns, and thou shalt put [them] upon the head of Jesus the son of Josedec 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 thou shalt say to him, Thus saith the Lord Almighty; Behold the man whose name is The Branch; and he shall spring up from his stem, and build the house of the Lord.

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 And he shall receive power, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and there shall be a priest on his right hand, and a peaceable counsel 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 crown shall be to them that wait patiently, and to the useful men of the captivity, and to them that have known it, and for the favour of the son of Sophonias, and for a psalm in the house of the Lord.

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 from them shall come and build in the house of the Lord, and ye shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you: and [this] shall come to pass, if ye will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord 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.
