Then I said, "My lord, what [are] these?" So the angel who talked with me said to me, "I will show you what they [are."]

And the LORD answered the angel who talked to me, [with] good [and] comforting words.

So the angel who spoke with me said to me, "Proclaim, saying, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts: "I am zealous for Jerusalem And for Zion with great zeal.

And I said to the angel who talked with me, "What [are] these?" So he answered me, "These [are] the horns that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem."

Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, "Do you not know what these are?" And I said, "No, my lord."

Then the angel who talked with me came out and said to me, "Lift your eyes now, and see what this [is] that goes forth."

I saw by night, and behold, a man riding on a red horse, and it stood among the myrtle trees in the hollow; and behind him [were] horses: red, sorrel, and white.

And the man who stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, "These [are the ones] whom the LORD has sent to walk to and fro throughout the earth."

So they answered the Angel of the LORD, who stood among the myrtle trees, and said, "We have walked to and fro throughout the earth, and behold, all the earth is resting quietly."
