New Living Translation (NLT)

Zechariah 5
⁹ Then I looked up and saw two women flying toward us, gliding on the wind. They had wings like a stork, and they picked up the basket and flew into the sky.
¹⁰ “Where are they taking the basket?” I asked the angel.
¹¹ He replied, “To the land of Babylonia, where they will build a temple for the basket. And when the temple is ready, they will set the basket there on its pedestal.”
Zechariah 6
¹ Then I looked up again and saw four chariots coming from between two bronze mountains.
² The first chariot was pulled by red horses, the second by black horses,
³ the third by white horses, and the fourth by powerful dappled-gray horses.
⁴ “And what are these, my lord?” I asked the angel who was talking with me.
⁵ The angel replied, “These are the four spirits of heaven who stand before the Lord of all the earth. They are going out to do his work.
⁶ The chariot with black horses is going north, the chariot with white horses is going west, and the chariot with dappled-gray horses is going south.”
⁷ The powerful horses were eager to set out to patrol the earth. And the LORD said, “Go and patrol the earth!” So they left at once on their patrol.
⁸ Then the LORD summoned me and said, “Look, those who went north have vented the anger of my Spirit there in the land of the north.”
