1Et conversus sum,And I turned,et levavi oculos meos,and I lifted up my eyeset vidi:and I saw.et ecce quatuor quadrigæ egredientes de medio duorum montium:And behold,et montes,four four-horse chariots went out from the middle of two mountains.montes ærei.And the mountains were mountains of brass.

2In quadriga prima equi rufi,In the first chariot were red horses,et in quadriga secunda equi nigri,and in the second chariot were black horses,

3et in quadriga tertia equi albi,and in the third chariot were white horses,et in quadriga quarta equi variiand in the fourth chariot were speckled horses,et fortes.and they were strong.

4Et respondi,And I respondedet dixi ad angelum qui loquebatur in me:and said to the angel who was speaking with me,Quid sunt hæc,“What are these,domine mi?my lord?”

5Et respondit angelus,And the angel answeredet ait ad me:and said to me,Isti sunt quatuor venti cæli,“These are the four winds of heaven,qui egrediuntur ut stent coram Dominatore omnis terræ.which go forth to stand in the presence of the Sovereign of all the earth.”

6In qua erant equi nigri, egrediebantur in terram aquilonis:The one with the black horses was departing into the land of the North,et albi egressi sunt post eos,and the white went forth after them,et varii egressi sunt ad terram austri.and the speckled went forth towards the land of the South.

7Qui autem erant robustissimi,Yet those who were the most strong,exierunt,went out,et quærebant ire et discurrere per omnem terram.and sought to go and to roam quickly through all the earth.Et dixit:And he said,Ite,“Go,perambulate terram:walk throughout the earth.”et perambulaverunt terram.And they walked throughout the earth.

8Et vocavit me,And he called me and spoke with me,et locutus est ad me,saying,dicens:“Behold,Ecce qui egrediuntur in terram aquilonis,those who go forth to the land of the North,requiescere fecerunt spiritum meum in terra aquilonis.have quieted my spirit in the land of the North.”

9Et factum est verbum Domini ad me,And the word of the Lord came to me,dicens:saying:

Erit autem hoc,And you will know that the Lord of hosts sent me to you. Yet this shall be only if,si auditu audieritis vocem Domini Dei vestri.when hearing, you will have heeded the voice of the Lord your God.
