New Testament

Zechariah 6:7-14 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

7. As 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.

8. Then He summoned me saying, “See, those going to the land of the north have pacified My Spirit in the northern land.”

9. The word of the Lord came to me:

10. “Take an offering from the exiles, from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon, and go that same day to the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah.

11. Take silver and gold, make crowns and place them on the head of Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest.

12. You are to tell him: This is what the Lord of Hosts says: Here is a man whose name is Branch; He will branch out from His place and build the Lord’s temple.

13. Yes, He will build the Lord’s temple; He will be clothed in splendor and will sit on His throne and rule. There will also be a priest on His throne, and there will be peaceful counsel between the two of them.

14. The crown will reside in the Lord’s temple as a memorial to Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and Hen son of Zephaniah.
