 NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
| 1 Now I lifted up my eyes again and looked, and behold, four chariots were coming forth from between the two mountains; and the mountains were bronze mountains. | 1 And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass. | 1 I looked up again and saw four chariots going out from between the two mountains. They were mountains of bronze. | 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 brass. | 1 And I lifted up mine eyes again, and saw, and behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass. | 2 With the first chariot were red horses, with the second chariot black horses, | 2 In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses; | 2 The first chariot had red horses. The second had black horses. | 2 In the first chariot were red horses; in the second chariot black horses; | 2 In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses; | 3 with the third chariot white horses, and with the fourth chariot strong dappled horses. | 3 And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses. | 3 The third had white horses. And the fourth had strong, spotted horses. | 3 in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot dappled horses, all of them powerful. | 3 and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled, strong horses. | 4 Then I spoke and said to the angel who was speaking with me, "What are these, my lord?" | 4 Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord? | 4 I asked the angel who was speaking with me, "What do these horses mean, sir?" | 4 Then I asked the angel who talked with me, "What are these, my lord?" | 4 And I spoke and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord? | 5 The angel replied to me, "These are the four spirits of heaven, going forth after standing before the Lord of all the earth, | 5 And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the LORD of all the earth. | 5 The angel answered, "They are the four spirits of heaven. They are going out after standing in the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. | 5 The angel answered me, "These are the four winds of the sky, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth. | 5 And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth. | NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
| 6 with one of which the black horses are going forth to the north country; and the white ones go forth after them, while the dappled ones go forth to the south country. | 6 The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grisled go forth toward the south country. | 6 The chariot with the black horses is going toward the north, and the white horses are following them. The spotted ones are going toward the south." | 6 The one with the black horses goes out toward the north country; and the white went out after them; and the dappled went forth toward the south country." | 6 That in which are the black horses goeth forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grisled go forth towards the south country; | 7 "When the strong ones went out, they were eager to go to patrol the earth." And He said, "Go, patrol the earth." So they patrolled the earth. | 7 And the bay 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 When these strong horses went out, they were eager to patrol the earth. He said, "Go, patrol the earth!" And they patrolled the earth. | 7 The strong went out, and sought to go that they might walk back and forth through the earth: and he said, "Go around and through the earth!" So they walked back and forth through the earth. | 7 and the strong go forth, and seek to go that they may walk to and fro through the earth. And he said, Go, walk to and fro through the earth. And they walked to and fro through the earth. | 8 Then He cried out to me and spoke to me saying, "See, those who are going to the land of the north have appeased My wrath in the land of the north." | 8 Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country. | 8 Then he called out to me, "Look! Those who went to the north have made my Spirit rest in the north." | 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." | 8 And he cried unto me, and spoke unto me, saying, See, these that go forth towards the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country. | 9 The word of the LORD also came to me, saying, | 9 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, | 9 The LORD spoke his word to me. He said, | 9 The word of Yahweh came to me, saying, | 9 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, | 10 "Take an offering from the exiles, from Heldai, Tobijah and Jedaiah; and you go the same day and enter the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have arrived from Babylon. | 10 Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, which are come from Babylon, and come thou the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah; | 10 "Take an offering from the exiles Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon. This same day go to the house of Josiah, son of Zephaniah. | 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. | 10 Take gifts of them of the captivity, of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, and come thou the same day, and enter into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, whither they are come from Babylon; | The Symbolic Crowns |

He will branch out from where he is, and he will rebuild the LORD's temple. | 12 and speak to him, saying, 'Thus says Yahweh of Armies, "Behold, the man whose name is the Branch: and he shall grow up out of his place; and he shall build the temple of Yahweh; | 12 and speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, saying, Behold a man whose name is the Branch; and he shall grow up from his own place, and he shall build the temple of Jehovah: | 13 "Yes, it is He who will build the temple of the LORD, and He who will bear the honor and sit and rule on His throne. Thus, He will be a priest on His throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two offices."' | 13 Even he shall build the temple of 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 the counsel of peace shall be between them both. | 13 He will rebuild the LORD's temple and receive royal honor. He will sit and rule from his throne. He will be a priest on his throne.

Then you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you. And it will take place if you completely obey the LORD your God. | 15 And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the LORD, and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God. | 15 Those who are far away will come and rebuild the LORD's temple. Then you will know the LORD of Armies has sent me to you. This will happen if you obey the LORD your God completely.'" | 15 Those who are far off shall come and build in the temple of Yahweh; and you shall know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me to you. This will happen, if you will diligently obey the voice of Yahweh your God."'" | 15 And they that are far off shall come and build at 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 hearken to the voice of Jehovah your God. |
