RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 And again I lifted up my eyes and saw four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze.
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.
1 Again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, four chariots came out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of bronze.
2 The first chariot had red horses, the second black horses,
2 En el primer carro había caballos bermejos, y en el segundo carro caballos negros,
2 In the first chariot were red horses. In the second chariot were black horses.
3 the third white horses, and the fourth dappled horses—all of them strong.
3 Y en el tercer carro caballos blancos, y en el cuarto carro caballos overos ruciorodados.
3 In the third chariot were white horses. In the fourth chariot were dappled horses, all of them powerful.
4 So I inquired of the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these, my lord?”
4 Respondí entonces, y dije al ángel que conmigo hablaba: Señor mío, ¿qué es esto?
4 Then I asked the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?”
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 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.
5 The angel answered me, “These are the four winds of the sky, which go out from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
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 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.
6 The one with the black horses goes out toward the north country; and the white went out after them; and the dappled went out toward the south country.”
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 Y los rucios salieron, y se afanaron por ir á recorrer la tierra. Y dijo: Id, recorred la tierra. Y recorrieron la tierra.
7 The strong went out, and sought to go that they might walk back and forth through the earth. He said, “Go around and through the earth!” So they walked back and forth through the earth.
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 Luego me llamó, y hablóme diciendo: Mira, los que salieron hacia la tierra del aquilón hicieron reposar mi espíritu en la tierra del aquilón.
8 Then he called to me, and spoke to me, saying, “Behold, those who go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.”
9 The word of the LORD also came to me, saying,
9 Y fué á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:
9 Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
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 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;
10 “Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon.
11 Take silver and gold, make an ornate crown, and set it on the head of the high priest, Joshua son of Jehozadak.
11 Tomarás pues plata y oro, y harás coronas, y las pondrás en la cabeza del gran sacerdote Josué, hijo de Josadac;
11 Yes, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
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 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:
12 and speak to him, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies says, “Behold, the man whose name is the Branch! He will grow up out of his place; and he will build Yahweh’s temple.
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 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.
13 He will build Yahweh’s temple. He will bear the glory, and will sit and rule on his throne. He will be a priest on his throne. The counsel of peace will be between them both.
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 Y Helem, y Tobías, y Jedaía, y Hen, hijo de Sefanías, tendrán coronas por memorial en el templo de Jehová.
14 The crowns shall be to Helem, to Tobijah, to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in Yahweh’s temple.
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 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.
15 Those who are far off shall come and build in Yahweh’s temple; and you shall know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me to you. This will happen, if you will diligently obey Yahweh your God’s voice.”’”
