زَكَريَّا 4

١ 1 فَرَجَعَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَنِي وَأَيْقَظَنِي كَرَجُلٍ أُوقِظَ مِنْ نَوْمِهِ.

And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep,

٢ 2 وَقَالَ لِي: «مَاذَا تَرَى؟» فَقُلْتُ: «قَدْ نَظَرْتُ وَإِذَا بِمَنَارَةٍ كُلُّهَا ذَهَبٌ، وَكُوزُهَا عَلَى رَأْسِهَا، وَسَبْعَةُ سُرُجٍ عَلَيْهَا، وَسَبْعُ أَنَابِيبَ لِلسُّرْجِ ٱلَّتِي عَلَى رَأْسِهَا.

And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof:

٣ 3 وَعِنْدَهَا زَيْتُونَتَانِ، إِحْدَاهُمَا عَنْ يَمِينِ ٱلْكُوزِ، وَٱلْأُخْرَى عَنْ يَسَارِهِ».

And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.

٤ 4 فَأَجَبْتُ وَقُلْتُ لِلْمَلَاكِ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَنِي قَائِلًا: «مَا هَذِهِ يَا سَيِّدِي؟»

So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my master?

٥ 5 فَأَجَابَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَنِي وَقَالَ لِي: «أَمَا تَعْلَمُ مَا هَذِهِ؟» فَقُلْتُ: «لَا يَا سَيِّدِي».

Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my master.

٦ 6 فَأَجَابَ وَكَلَّمَنِي قَائِلًا: «هَذِهِ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى زَرُبَّابِلَ قَائِلًا: لَا بِٱلْقُدْرَةِ وَلَا بِٱلْقُوَّةِ، بَلْ بِرُوحِي قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ.

Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of YHWH unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith YHWH of hosts.

٧ 7 مَنْ أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْجَبَلُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ؟ أَمَامَ زَرُبَّابِلَ تَصِيرُ سَهْلًا! فَيُخْرِجُ حَجَرَ ٱلزَّاوِيَةِ بَيْنَ ٱلْهَاتِفِينَ: كَرَامَةً، كَرَامَةً لَهُ».

Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Favour, favour unto it.

٨ 8 وَكَانَتْ إِلَيَّ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

Moreover the word of YHWH came unto me, saying,

٩ 9 «إِنَّ يَدَيْ زَرُبَّابِلَ قَدْ أَسَّسَتَا هَذَا ٱلْبَيْتَ، فَيَدَاهُ تُتَمِّمَانِهِ، فَتَعْلَمُ أَنَّ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكُمْ».

The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that YHWH of hosts hath sent me unto you.

١٠ 10 لِأَنَّهُ مَنِ ٱزْدَرَى بِيَوْمِ ٱلْأُمُورِ ٱلصَّغِيرَةِ. فَتَفْرَحُ أُولَئِكَ ٱلسَّبْعُ، وَيَرَوْنَ ٱلزِّيجَ بِيَدِ زَرُبَّابِلَ. إِنَّمَا هِيَ أَعْيُنُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْجَائِلَةُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا.

For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of YHWH, which run to and fro through the whole earth.

١١ 11 فَأَجَبْتُ وَقُلْتُ لَهُ: «مَا هَاتَانِ ٱلزَّيْتُونَتَانِ عَنْ يَمِينِ ٱلْمَنَارَةِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهَا؟»

Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?

١٢ 12 وَأَجَبْتُ ثَانِيَةً وَقُلْتُ لَهُ: «مَا فَرْعَا ٱلزَّيْتُونِ ٱللَّذَانِ بِجَانِبِ ٱلْأَنَابِيبِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، ٱلْمُفْرِغَانِ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمَا ٱلذَّهَبِيَّ؟»

And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?

١٣ 13 فَأَجَابَنِي قَائِلًا: «أَمَا تَعْلَمُ مَا هَاتَانِ؟» فَقُلْتُ: «لَا يَا سَيِّدِي».

And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my master.

١٤ 14 فَقَالَ: «هَاتَانِ هُمَا ٱبْنَا ٱلزَّيْتِ ٱلْوَاقِفَانِ عِنْدَ سَيِّدِ ٱلْأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا».

Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Master of the whole earth.
