The LORD’s word to make crowns for the head of Joshua the high priest
면류관을 만들어 대제사장 여호수아의 머리에 씌우라는 여호와의 말씀
Zechariah 6:9–15: the LORD’s word comes to the speaker (“I”), saying, “Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon. Yes, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest; and speak to him, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies says, “Behold, the man whose name is the Branch! He will grow up out of his place; and he will build the LORD’s temple. He will build the LORD’s temple. He will bear the glory, and will sit and rule on his throne. He will be a priest on his throne. The counsel of peace will be between them both. The crowns shall be to Helem, to Tobijah, to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the LORD’s temple. Those who are far off shall come and build in the LORD’s temple; and you shall know that the LORD of Armies has sent me to you. This will happen, if you will diligently obey the LORD your God’s voice.”’” WEB closes the quotations it opens at 6:10 and 6:12 only at the end of 6:15. The text does not say that the crowns were made or set, or who the man whose name is the Branch is. The Korean Revised Version has Heldai, Tobijah and Jedaiah, who returned from Babylon among the captives, come into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah (들었나니), and tells the speaker to go into that house the same day and take of them (6:10); it reads 면류관 with no mark of number, where WEB reads “crowns” (6:11, 6:14); it names no one to be spoken to at 6:12 (고하여 이르기를), where WEB reads “speak to him”; at 6:13 it reads 또 제사장이 자기 위에 있으리니 이 두 사이에 평화의 의논이 있으리라, where WEB reads “He will be a priest on his throne. The counsel of peace will be between them both.” It closes the words to be spoken at 6:13 (하셨다 하고) and the LORD’s word at the end of 6:14 (하시니라), and gives 6:15 after it.

Both editions name at 6:10 Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah and Josiah the son of Zephaniah, and at 6:14 Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah and Hen the son of Zephaniah. The text does not say whether Heldai and Helem, or Josiah and Hen, are the same men. This collection records the two runs as lists (zec-6-10, zec-6-14), links no name to an entry, and does not decide it.
