< Zacharias 4 >

1 And the angel that talked with me returned, and awakened me, as when a man is awakened out of his sleep.
Lipufan se ma sramsram nu sik ah sifilpa tuku ac okasyuyak, oana in mu nga motul.
2 And he said to me, What see you? And I said, I have seen, and behold a candlestick all of gold, and its bowl upon it, and seven lamps upon it, and seven oil funnels to the lamps upon it:
Ac el siyuk, “Oasr ma kom liye?” Ac nga fahk, “Nga liye soko sukan lam orekla ke gold, ac pol in neinyuk oil se oan oelucng. Oasr lam itkosr oan fin sukan lam soko ah, kais sie oasr acn sin wik itkosr kac.
3 and two olive-trees above it, one on the right of the bowl, and one on the left.
Oasr sak olive lukwa sisken sukan lam sac, soko oan lac ac soko oan layen ngia.”
4 And I enquired, and spoke to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these things, [my] lord?
Na nga siyuk sin lipufan sac, “Leum luk, mea kalmen ma inge?”
5 And the angel that talked with me answered, and spoke to me, saying, Know you not what these things are? And I said, No, [my] lord.
Na el siyuk sik, “Mea, kom nikin?” Ac nga fahk, “Nga nikinna.”
6 And he answered and spoke to me, saying, This is the word of the Lord to Zorobabel, saying, Not by mighty power, nor by strength, but by my Spirit, says the Lord Almighty.
Lipufan sac fahk nu sik nga in sang nu sel Zerubbabel kas sin LEUM GOD inge: “Ma nukewa kom oru ac fah fahla wo, tia ke ku lun mwet mweun ku ke ku lom sifacna, a ke ku lun ngunik.
7 Who are you, the great mountain before Zorobabel, that you should prosper? whereas I will bring out the stone of the inheritance, the grace of it the equal of [my ] grace.
Mwe kutong na yohk ac fulat oana fineol, fah wanginla ye motom. Kom ac fah sifil musaela Tempul uh, ac ke kom ac oakiya eot se ma safla uh, mwet uh fah sala ac fahk, “Arulana wo! Arulana wo!”
8 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Sie pac kas sin LEUM GOD tuku nu sik.
9 The hands of Zorobabel have laid the foundation of this house, and his hands shall finish it: and you shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you.
El fahk, “Zerubbabel el oakiya tari pwelung lun Tempul, ac el ac aksafyela musa kac uh. Pacl se ma inge ac orekla uh, na mwet luk uh ac fah etu lah nga pa supwekom nu selos uh.
10 For who has despised the small days? surely they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet of tin in the hand of Zorobabel: these are the seven eyes that look upon all the earth.
Elos ac toasrla mweyen tia yohk ma orekla uh. Tusruktu ke elos ac liyal Zerubbabel lah el srakna musai Tempul, na elos ac fah engan.” Na lipufan sac fahk nu sik, “Lam itkosr inge pa muta itkosr lun LEUM GOD, su liye faclu nufon.”
11 And I answered, and said to him, What are these two olive-trees, which are on the right and left hand of the candlestick?
Na nga siyuk sel, “Mea kalmen sak olive lukwa ma oan lac lac ke sukan lam uh?
12 And I asked the second time, and said to him, What are the two branches of the olive-trees that are by the side of the two golden pipes that pour into and communicate with the golden oil funnels?
Ac mea kalmen lesak olive luo sisken paip gold lukwa ma oil in olive uh soror kac uh?”
13 And he said to me, Know you not what these are? and I said, No, [my] lord.
Ac el siyuk sik, “Mea, kom nikin?” Ac nga fahk, “Leum luk, nga tiana etu.”
14 And he said, These are the two anointed ones [that] stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
Na el fahk, “Mwet luo inge pa God El sulela ac mosrwela in kulansupu Leum God lun faclu nufon.”
