Zechariah 4

1 And the Angel that talked with mee, came againe and waked mee, as a man that is raysed out of his sleepe,

١ وَرَجَعَ مَلاكُ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي يُكَلِّمُنِي وَأَيْقَظَنِي كَمَا يُوْقَظُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ نَوْمِهِ،

2 And saide vnto me, What seest thou? And I said, I haue looked, and beholde, a candlesticke all of gold with a bowle vpon the toppe of it, and his seuen lampes therein, and seuen pipes to the lampes, which were vpon the toppe thereof.

٢ وَسَأَلَنِي: «مَاذَا تَرَى؟» فَأَجَبْتُ: «أَرَى مَنَارَةً مَصُوغَةً كُلُّهَا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، عَلَى رَأْسِهَا صَحْنٌ قَائِمٌ، عَلَيْهِ سَبْعَةُ سُرُجٍ، مُتَّصِلَةٍ بِسَبْعِ أَنَابِيبَ مِنْ أَعْلَى

3 And two oliue trees ouer it, one vpon the right side of the bowle, and the other vpon the left side thereof.

٣ يَنْتَصِبُ إِلَى جِوَارِهَا زَيْتُونَتَانِ إِحْدَاهُمَا عَنْ يَمِينِ الصَّحْنِ وَالأُخْرَى عَنْ يَسَارِهِ».

4 So I answered, and spake to the Angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my Lord?

٤ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُ الْمَلاكَ: «مَا هَذِهِ يَا سَيِّدِي؟»

5 Then the Angel that talked with mee, answered and said vnto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my Lord.

٥ فَأَجَابَنِي: «أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ مَا هَذِهِ؟» فَقُلْتُ: «لا يَا سَيِّدِي».

6 Then he answered and spake vnto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord vnto Zerubbabel, saying, Neither by an armie nor strength, but by my Spirit, saith the Lord of hostes.

٦ فَقَالَ: «هَذِهِ رِسَالَةُ الرَّبِّ إِلَى زَرُبَّابِلَ: لَا بِالْقُدْرَةِ وَلا بِالْقُوَّةِ، وَلَكِنْ بِرُوحِي تُفْلِحُونَ يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ.

7 Who art thou, O great mountaine, before Zerubbabel? thou shalt be a plaine, and he shall bring foorth the head stone thereof, with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace vnto it.

٧ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا الْجَبَلُ الْعَظِيمُ؟ أَنْتَ سَهْلٌ أَمَامَ زَرُبَّابِلَ، وَسَيَضَعُ زَرُبَّابِلُ حَجَرَ الزَّاوِيَةِ فِي خِضَمِّ هُتَافِ الْقَائِلِينَ: لِيُبَارِكْهُ، لِيُبَارِكْهُ الرَّبُّ».

8 Moreouer, the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

٨ ثُمَّ أَوْحَى الرَّبُّ إِلَيَّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً:

9 The handes of Zerubbabel haue layde the foundation of this house: his handes shall also finish it, and thou shalt knowe that the Lord of hostes hath sent me vnto you.

٩ «قَدْ أَسَّسَتْ يَدَا زَرُبَّابِلَ هَذَا الْهَيْكَلَ، وَيَدَاهُ تُكَمِّلانِ بِنَاءَهُ، فَتُدْرِكُ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكُمْ.

10 For who hath despised the day of the small thinges? but they shall reioyce, and shall see the stone of tinne in the hand of Zerubbabel: these seuen are the eyes of the Lord, which go thorow the whole world.

١٠ مَنْ يَزْدَرِي بِيَوْمِ الإِنْجَازَاتِ الصَّغِيرَةِ؟ يَفْرَحُ الرِّجَالُ حِينَ يُشَاهِدُونَ مِيزَانَ الْبِنَاءِ فِي يَدِ زَرُبَّابِلَ، وَهَذِهِ السَّبْعَةُ هِيَ أَعْيُنُ الرَّبِّ الْجَائِلَةُ فِي كُلِّ الأَرْضِ».

11 Then answered I, and said vnto him, What are these two oliue trees vpon the right and vpon the left side thereof?

١١ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُهُ: «مَا هَاتَانِ الزَّيْتُونَتَانِ الْقَائِمَتَانِ عَنْ يَمِينِ الْمَنَارَةِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهَا؟

12 And I spake moreouer, and said vnto him, What bee these two oliue branches, which thorowe the two golden pipes emptie themselues into the golde?

١٢ وَمَا غُصْنَا الزَّيْتُونِ هَذَانِ الْمُنْتَصِبَانِ إِلَى جُوَارِ أُنْبُوبَتَيِ الذَّهَبِ، اللَّتَيْنِ تَصُبَّانِ الزَّيْتَ الذَّهَبِيَّ؟»

13 And hee answered me, and saide, Knowest thou not what these bee? And I sayde, No, my Lord.

١٣ فَأَجَابَنِي: «أَلا تَعْلَمُ مَا هَاتَانِ؟» فَقُلْتُ: «لا يَا سَيِّدِي».

14 Then said he, These are the two oliue branches, that stand with the ruler of the whole earth.

١٤ فَقَالَ: «هَاتَانِ تُمَثِّلانِ الْمَمْسُوحَيْنِ بِالزَّيْتِ اللَّذَيْنِ يَمْثُلانِ لَدَى رَبِّ الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا».
