"I stared into the night, and there was a man mounted on a red horse! The horse was standing among the myrtle trees in a ravine. Behind him there were red, brown, and white horses."

So the angel continued to tell those who were standing in his presence, "Remove his filthy clothes." And he told Joshua, "Look how I've removed your iniquity. Now I'm clothing you with fine garments."

Then I looked up and saw four chariots coming out from between two mountains! And the mountains were made of brass!

Attached to the first chariot were red horses. Attached to the second chariot were black horses.

Attached to the third chariot were white horses. Attached to the fourth chariot were speckled horses and gray horses.

Then the gray horses went out. They were eager to go out on patrol throughout the earth, so the angel said, "Go patrol the earth." So they went out on patrol throughout the earth.

The people of Bethel were sending Sharezer, Regem-melech, and their men to pray in the LORD's presence

"Talk to everyone in the land, as well as to the priests. Ask them, "When you were fasting and mourning during the fifth and seventh months for the past seventy years, were you really fasting for me?

Isn't this what the LORD proclaimed through the former prophets, when a prosperous Jerusalem was inhabited, as were its surrounding cities, the Negev, and the Shephelah?'"

For I have bent Judah as if it were my bow, loading it with Ephraim. I raised up your sons, Zion, against your sons, Greece, wielding you like a mighty warrior's sword."

I will whistle for them, gathering them together, because I have redeemed them, and they will multiply as they were before.

It was broken at that time so the oppressed of the flock who were observing me would know that it had been a message from the LORD.
