Zechariah 4
1 And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.
那與我說話的天使又來叫醒我，好像人睡覺被喚醒一樣。
2 And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I see, and behold, a lamp-stand all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps thereon, seven [lamps] and seven pipes to the lamps, which are upon the top thereof;
他問我說：「你看見了甚麼？」我說：「我看見了一個純金的燈臺，頂上有燈盞，燈臺上有七盞燈，每盞有七個管子。
3 and two olive-trees beside it, one on the right of the bowl, and the other on the left of it.
旁邊有兩棵橄欖樹，一棵在燈盞的右邊，一棵在燈盞的左邊。」
4 And I answered and spoke to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?
我問與我說話的天使說：「主啊，這是甚麼意思？」
5 And the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these are? And I said, No, my lord.
與我說話的天使回答我說：「你不知道這是甚麼意思嗎？」我說：「主啊，我不知道。」
6 And he answered and spoke unto me, saying, This is the word of Jehovah unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith Jehovah of hosts.
他對我說：「這是耶和華指示所羅巴伯的。萬軍之耶和華說：不是倚靠勢力，不是倚靠才能，乃是倚靠我的靈方能成事。
7 Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel [thou dost become] a plain; and he shall bring forth the head-stone with shoutings: Grace, grace unto it!
大山哪，你算甚麼呢？在所羅巴伯面前，你必成為平地。他必搬出一塊石頭，安在殿頂上。人且大聲歡呼說：『願恩惠恩惠歸與這殿！』」
8 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
耶和華的話又臨到我說：
9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; and his hands shall finish it: and thou shalt know that Jehovah of hosts hath sent me unto you.
「所羅巴伯的手立了這殿的根基，他的手也必完成這工，你就知道萬軍之耶和華差遣我到你們這裏來了。
10 For who hath despised the day of small things? Yea, they shall rejoice [even] those seven — and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel: these are the eyes of Jehovah, which run to and fro in the whole earth.
誰藐視這日的事為小呢？這七眼乃是耶和華的眼睛，遍察全地，見所羅巴伯手拿線鉈就歡喜。」
11 And I answered and said unto him, What are these two olive-trees on the right of the lamp-stand and on its left?
我又問天使說：「這燈臺左右的兩棵橄欖樹是甚麼意思？」
12 And I answered the second time and said unto him, What are the two olive-branches which are beside the two golden tubes that empty the gold out of themselves?
我二次問他說：「這兩根橄欖枝在兩個流出金色油的金嘴旁邊是甚麼意思？」
13 And he spoke to me, saying, Knowest thou not what these are? And I said, No, my lord.
他對我說：「你不知道這是甚麼意思嗎？」我說：「主啊，我不知道。」
14 And he said, These are the two sons of oil, that stand before the Lord of the whole earth.
他說：「這是兩個受膏者站在普天下主的旁邊。」
