Zechariah 6:1-7
The Four Chariots
1 Now I lifted up my eyes again and looked, and behold, (A)four chariots were coming forth from between the two mountains; and the mountains were bronze mountains.
2 With the first chariot were (B)red horses, with the second chariot (C)black horses,
3 with the third chariot (D)white horses, and with the fourth chariot strong (E)dappled horses.
4 Then I spoke and said to the angel who was speaking with me, “(F)What are these, my lord?”
5 The angel replied to me, “These are the (G)four spirits of heaven, going forth after standing before the Lord of all the earth,
6 with one of which the black horses are going forth to the (H)north country; and the white ones go forth after them, while the dappled ones go forth to the (I)south country.
7 When the strong ones went out, they (a)were eager to go to (b)(J)patrol the earth.” And He said, “Go, (c)patrol the earth.” So they (d)patrolled the earth.
