18 Then I looked up and I saw four horns.
19 So I asked the angel who was talking with me, “What do these horns mean?” He said, “These are the horns that forced the people of Israel, Judah, and Jerusalem to go to foreign countries.”
20 The Lord showed me four workers.
21 I asked him, “What are these four workers coming to do?” He said, “The horns represent the nations that attacked the people of Judah and forced them to go to foreign countries. The horns ‘threw’ the people of Judah to the foreign countries. The horns didn’t show mercy to anyone. But these four workers have come to frighten the horns and throw them away.”
