Zechariah 6:2-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 6
2With the first chariot were red horses, with the second chariot black horses, 3with the third chariot white horses, and with the fourth chariot strong spotted horses. 4So I responded and said to the angel who was speaking with me, 'What are these, my lord?' 5The angel replied to me, 'These are the four spirits of heaven, going out after taking their stand before the Lord of all the earth, 6with one of which the black horses are going out to the north country; and the white ones are to go out after them, while the spotted ones are to go out to the south country.' 7When 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. 8Then He called 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.'King James Version
Chapter 6
2In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses; 3And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses. 4Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord? 5And 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. 6The 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. 7And 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. 8Then 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. 9And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 6
2The first chariot had chestnut horses, the second chariot black horses, 3the third chariot white horses, and the fourth chariot dappled horses—all strong horses. 4So I inquired of the angel who was speaking with me, "What are these, my lord?"
5The angel told me, "These are the four spirits of heaven going out after presenting themselves to the Lord of the whole earth.
6The one with the black horses is going to the land of the north, the white horses are going after them, but the dappled horses are going to the land of the south."
7As the strong horses went out, they wanted to go patrol the earth, and the Lord said, "Go, patrol the earth." So they patrolled the earth.
8Then he summoned me saying, "See, those going to the land of the north have pacified my Spirit in the northern land."

2With the first chariot were red horses, with the second chariot black horses, 3with the third chariot white horses, and with the fourth chariot dappled horses—strong steeds. 4Then I answered and said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?”

6The one with the black horses is going to the north country, the white are going after them, and the dappled are going toward the south country.”
7Then the strong steeds went out, eager to go, that they might walk to and fro throughout the earth. And He said, “Go, walk to and fro throughout the earth.” So they walked to and fro throughout the earth.
8And He called to me, and spoke to me, saying, “See, those who go toward the north country have given rest to My Spirit in the north country.”
