| 4:1 |
And the messenger who is speaking with me doth turn back, and stir me up as one who is stirred up out of his sleep,
|
| 4:2 |
and he saith unto me, `What art thou seeing?' And I say, `I have looked, and lo, a candlestick of gold -- all of it, and its bowl [is] on its top, and its seven lamps [are] upon it, and twice seven pipes [are] to the lights that [are] on its top,
|
| 4:3 |
and two olive-trees [are] by it, one on the right of the bowl, and one on its left.'
|
| 4:4 |
And I answer and speak unto the messenger who is speaking with me, saying, `What [are] these, my lord?'
|
| 4:5 |
And the messenger who is speaking with me answereth and saith unto me, `Hast thou not known what these [are]?' And I say, `No, my lord.'
|
| 4:6 |
And he answereth and speaketh unto me, saying: `This [is] a word of Jehovah unto Zerubbabel, saying: Not by a force, nor by power, But -- by My Spirit, said Jehovah of Hosts.
|
| 4:7 |
Who [art] thou, O great mountain Before Zerubbabel -- for a plain! And he hath brought forth the top-stone, Cries of Grace, grace -- [are] to it.'
|
| 4:8 |
And there is a word of Jehovah to me, saying,
|
| 4:9 |
Hands of Zerubbabel did found this house, And his hands do finish it, And thou hast known that Jehovah of Hosts Hath sent me unto you.
|
| 4:10 |
For who trampled on the day of small things, They have rejoiced, And seen the tin weight in the hand of Zerubbabel, These seven [are] the eyes of Jehovah, They are going to and fro in all the land.'
|
| 4:11 |
And I answer and say unto him, `What [are] these two olive-trees, on the right of the candlestick, and on its left?'
|
| 4:12 |
And I answer a second time, and say unto him, `What [are] the two branches of the olive trees that, by means of the two golden pipes, are emptying out of themselves the oil?'
|
| 4:13 |
And he speaketh unto me, saying, `Hast thou not known what these [are]?' And I say, `No, my lord.'
|
| 4:14 |
And he saith, `These [are] the two sons of the oil, who are standing by the Lord of the whole earth.'
