Zechariah 1:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 I [a]saw by night, and behold [b]a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in a bottom, and behind him were there [c]red horses speckled and white.
9 Then said I, O my Lord, what are these? And the Angel that talked with me, said unto me, I will show thee what these be.
10 And the man that stood among the myrtle trees, answered and said, These are they whom the Lord hath sent to go through the world.
