Sacharja 4

1And the angel that spoke in me came again: and he waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.

2And he said to me: What seest thou? And I said: I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, and its lamp upon the top of it: and the seven lights thereof upon it: and seven funnels for the lights that were upon the top thereof.

3And two olive trees over it: one upon the right side of the lamp, and the other upon the left side thereof.

4And I answered, and said to the angel that spoke in me, saying: What are these things, my lord?

5And the angel that spoke in me answered, and said to me: Knowest thou not what these things are? And I said: No, my lord.

6And he answered, and spoke to me, saying: This is the word of the Lord to Zorobabel, saying: Not with an army, nor by might, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.

7Who art thou, O great mountain, before Zorobabel? thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring out the chief stone, and shall give equal grace to the grace thereof.

8And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

9The hands of Zorobabel have laid the foundations of this house, and his hands shall finish it: and you shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me to you.

10For who hath despised little days? and they shall rejoice, and shall see the tin plummet in the hand of Zorobabel. These are the seven eyes of the Lord, that run to and fro through the whole earth.

11And I answered, and said to him: What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick, and upon the left side thereof?

12And I answered again, and said to him: What are the two olive branches, that are by the two golden beaks, in which are the funnels of gold?

13And he spoke to me, saying: Knowest thou not what these are? And I said: No, my lord.

14And he said: These are two sons of oil who stand before the Lord of the whole earth.

1Et reversus est angelus qui loquebatur in me, et suscitavit me quasi virum qui suscitatur de somno suo.

2Et dixit ad me: Quid tu vides? Et dixi: Vidi, et ecce candelabrum aureum totum, et lampas ejus super caput ipsius, et septem lucernæ ejus super illud, et septem infusoria lucernis quæ erant super caput ejus.

3Et duæ olivæ super illud: una a dextris lampadis, et una a sinistris ejus.

4Et respondi, et aio ad angelum qui loquebatur in me, dicens: Quid sunt hæc, domine mi?

5Et respondit angelus qui loquebatur in me, et dixit ad me: Numquid nescis quid sunt hæc? Et dixi: Non, domine mi.

6Et respondit, et ait ad me, dicens: Hoc est verbum Domini ad Zorobabel, dicens: Non in exercitu, nec in robore, sed in spiritu meo, dicit Dominus exercituum.

7Quis tu, mons magne, coram Zorobabel? In planum: et educet lapidem primarium, et exæquabit gratiam gratiæ ejus.

8Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:

9Manus Zorobabel fundaverunt domum istam, et manus ejus perficient eam: et scietis quia Dominus exercituum misit me ad vos.

10Quis enim despexit dies parvos? Et lætabuntur, et videbunt lapidem stanneum in manu Zorobabel. Septem isti oculi sunt Domini, qui discurrunt in universam terram.

11Et respondi, et dixi ad eum: Quid sunt duæ olivæ istæ, ad dexteram candelabri, et ad sinistram ejus?

12Et respondi secundo, et dixi ad eum: Quid sunt duæ spicæ olivarum quæ sunt juxta duo rostra aurea in quibus sunt suffusoria ex auro?

13Et ait ad me, dicens: Numquid nescis quid sunt hæc? Et dixi: Non, domine mi.

14Et dixit: Isti sunt duo filii olei, qui assistunt Dominatori universæ terræ.

1And the angel who had been speaking with me returned, and he awakened me, like a man who is awakened from his sleep.

2And he said to me, “What do you see?” And I said, “I looked, and behold, a candlestick entirely in gold, and its lamp was at its top, and seven oil lamps of it were upon it, and there were seven funnels for the oil lamps that were at its top.

3And there were two olive trees upon it: one to the right of the lamp, and one to its left.”

4And I answered and spoke to the angel who was speaking with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”

5And the angel who was speaking with me answered, and he said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.”

6And he answered and spoke to me, saying: This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying: Not by an army, nor by might, but in my spirit, says the Lord of hosts.

7What are you, great mountain, in the sight of Zerubbabel? You are among the plains. And he will lead out the primary stone, and he will give equal grace to its grace.

8And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

9The hand of Zerubbabel has founded this house, and his hands will complete it. And you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you.

10For who has despised the little days? And they will rejoice and will see the silver and lead stone in the hand of Zerubbabel. These are the seven eyes of the Lord, which roam quickly through all the earth.

11And I responded and said to him, “What are these two olive trees to the right of the candlestick, and to its left?”

12And I responded a second time and said to him, “What are the two olive branches, which are next to the two golden ridges, in which are the pouring spouts of gold?”

13And he spoke to me, saying, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.”

14And he said, “These are the two sons of oil, who attend before the Sovereign of all the earth.”
