Zechariah 4
1 And the angel who had been speaking with me returned, and he awakened me, like a man who is awakened from his sleep.
我に語へる天の使また來りて我を呼醒せり我は睡れる人の呼醒されしごとくなりき
2 And 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.
彼我にむかひて汝何を見るやと言ければ我いへり我觀に惣金の燈臺一箇ありてその頂に油を容る噐ありまた燈臺の上に七箇の燭盞ありその燭盞は燈臺の頂にありて之に各七本づつの管あり
3 And there were two olive trees upon it: one to the right of the lamp, and one to its left.”
また燈臺の側に橄欖の樹二本ありて一は油を容る噐の右にあり一はその左にあり
4 And I answered and spoke to the angel who was speaking with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
我答へて我と語ふ天の使の問言けるは我主よ是等は何ぞやと
5 And 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.”
我と語ふ天の使我に答へて汝是等の何なるを知ざるかと言しにより我主よ知ずとわれ言り
6 And 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.
彼また答へて我に言けるはゼルバベルにヱホバの告たまふ言は是のごとし萬軍のヱホバ宣ふ是は權勢に由らず能力に由らず我靈に由るなり
7 What 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.
ゼルバベルの前にあたれる大山よ汝は何者ぞ汝は平地とならん彼は恩惠あれ之に恩惠あれと呼はる聲をたてて頭石を曳いださん
8 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
ヱホバの言われに臨めり云く
9 The 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.
ゼルバベルの手この室の石礎を置たり彼の手これを成終ん汝しらん萬軍のヱホバ我を汝等に遣したまひしと
10 For 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.
誰か小き事の日を藐視むる者ぞ夫の七の者は遍く全地に往來するヱホバの目なり準繩のゼルバベルの手にあるを見て喜ばん
11 And I responded and said to him, “What are these two olive trees to the right of the candlestick, and to its left?”
我また彼に問て燈臺の右左にある此二本の橄欖の樹は何なるやと言ひ
12 And 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?”
重ねてまた彼に問て此二本の金の管によりて金の油をその中より斟ぎ出す二枝の橄欖は何ぞやと言しに
13 And he spoke to me, saying, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.”
彼われに答へて汝是等の何なるを知ざるかと言ければ我主よ知ずと言けるに
14 And he said, “These are the two sons of oil, who attend before the Sovereign of all the earth.”
彼言らく是等は油の二箇の子にして全地の主の前に立つ者なり
