The VI. Chapter.

MOrouer I turned me, liftynge vp [ A] myne eyes, & loked: & beholde, there came iiij. charettes out frō betwixte two hilles, which hilles were of brasse: In the first charet were reade horse, In the secō∣de charet were blacke horse, In ye thirde cha¦ret were whyte horse, In ye fourth charet we¦re horses of dyuerse colours, & stronge. Then spake I, and sayde vnto the angel that tal∣ked with me: O lorde, what are these▪ The an¦gel answered, & sayde vnto me: These are the iiij. wyndes of the heauen, which be come forth to stōde before the ruler of all ye earth. That with the blacke horse wente in to the londe of the north, & the whyte folowed thē, and the sprekled horses wente forth towarde the south. These horses were very stronge, & wente out: and sought to go and take their iourney ouer the whole earth. And he sayde: get you hence, and go thorow the worlde. So they wēte thorow out the worlde. Then cried he vpon me, and spake vnto me, sayen∣ge: Beholde, these that go towarde ye north, shal still my wrath in the north countre.

[ B] And the worde of the LORDE came vnto me, sayenge: Take of the presoners that are come from Babilon: namely, Heldai, Tobi∣as and Idaia: & come thou the same daye, and go in to the house of Iosias the sonne of Sophony. Then take golde and syluer, and make crownes therof, and set them vpon the heade of Iesua the sonne of Iosedec, the hie prest, and speake vnto him: Thus saieth the LORDE of hoostes: Beholde, the man who¦se name is the braunch: & he that shall sprin∣ge vp after him, shal buylde vp the temple of the LORDE: yee euen he shall buylde vp the temple of the LORDE. He shal beare the pray¦se, he shall syt vpon the LORDES trone, and haue the dominacion.

A prest shall he be also vpon his trone, & a peaceable councell shalbe betwixte them both. And the crownes shal be in the temple of the LORDE, for a remembraunce vnto He¦lem, Tobias, Idaia and Hen the sonne of Sophony. And soch as be farre of, shal co∣me and buylde the temple of the LORDE: that ye maye knowe, how that the LORDE of hoostes hath sent me vnto you. And this shal come to passe, yf ye wil herken diligent¦ly vnto the voyce of the LORDE youre God.
