Zechariah 6:2-4
New English Translation
2 Harnessed to the first chariot were red horses, to the second black horses, 3 to the third white horses, and to the fourth spotted horses, all of them strong.[a] 4 Then I asked the angelic messenger[b] who was speaking with me, “What are these, sir?”

- Zechariah 6:3 tc For the MT reading אֲמֻצִּים (ʾamutsim, “strong”) Aquila and Syriac presuppose אֲדֻמִּים (ʾadummim, “red”), thus giving the red horse an assignment and eliminating the problem of a fifth, “spotted” horse. The fourth would be a mottled red horse according to this view. There is, however, no manuscript support for this interpretation.
- Zechariah 6:4 tn See the note on the expression “angelic messenger” in 1:9.
