New American Standard Bible NAS
New International Version NIV
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
I looked up again, and there before me were four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze.
2 With the first chariot were red horses, with the second chariot black horses,
2
The first chariot had red horses, the second black,
3 with the third chariot white horses, and with the fourth chariot strong dappled horses.
3
the third white, and the fourth dappled—all of them powerful.
4 Then I spoke and said to the angel who was speaking with me, "What are these, my lord ?"
4
I asked the angel who was speaking to 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
The angel answered me, “These are the four spirits of heaven, going out from standing in the presence of the Lord of the whole world.
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 one with the black horses is going toward the north country, the one with the white horses toward the west, and the one with the dappled horses toward the south.”
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
When the powerful horses went out, they were straining to go throughout the earth. And he said, “Go throughout the earth!” So they went throughout 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 he called to me, “Look, those going toward the north country have given my Spirit rest in the land of the north.”
