8I saw in the night a man on a red horse, between the mountains in the valley, and at his back were horses, red, black, white, and of mixed colours.
9Then I said, O my lord, what are these? And the angel who was talking to me said to me, I will make clear to you what they are.
10And the man who was between the mountains, answering me, said, These are those whom the Lord has sent to go up and down through the earth.
11And the man who was between the mountains, answering, said to the angel of the Lord, We have gone up and down through the earth, and all the earth is quiet and at rest.
12Then the angel of the Lord, answering, said, O Lord of armies, how long will it be before you have mercy on Jerusalem and on the towns of Judah against which your wrath has been burning for seventy years?
13And the Lord gave an answer in good and comforting words to the angel who was talking to me.
14And the angel who was talking to me said to me, Let your voice be loud and say, These are the words of the Lord of armies: I am greatly moved about the fate of Jerusalem and of Zion.
