1 Again I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold, four chariots came out from between two mountains. And the mountains were mountains of ^mbronze. 2 The first chariot had ⁿred horses, the second ^oblack horses, 3 the third ^pwhite horses, and the fourth chariot dappled horses—all of them strong.¹ 4 Then I answered and said to ^qthe angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?” 5 And the angel answered and said to me, ^r“These are going out to the four winds of heaven, after ^spresenting themselves before ^tthe Lord of all the earth. 6 The chariot with the black horses goes toward ^uthe north country, the white ones go after them, and the dappled ones go toward ^vthe south country.” 7 When the strong horses came out, they were impatient to go and ^wpatrol the earth. And he said, “Go, ^wpatrol the earth.” ^wSo they patrolled the earth. 8 Then he cried to me, “Behold, those who go toward ^uthe north country have set my Spirit at rest in ^uthe north country.”
