Zechariah 6:1-7 ▼

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

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

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

4 In response, I asked the angel who had been talking with me, |Sir, what are these?|

5 The angel told me, |These are four heavenly spirits that are going out on patrol after having presented themselves to the Lord of the whole earth.

6 The black horses are headed into the north country, and the white ones are headed out after them. The speckled horses are headed toward the south country.|

7 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.
