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,
Kisha malaika aliyezungumza nami akarudi na kuniamsha, kama mtu aamshwavyo kutoka usingizi wake.
2 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:
Akaniuliza, “Unaona nini?” Nikajibu, “Ninaona kinara cha taa cha dhahabu tupu, nacho kina bakuli juu yake na taa zake saba juu yake, tena iko mirija saba ya kuleta mafuta, kwenye taa zote zilizo juu yake.
3 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.
Pia kuna mizeituni miwili karibu yake, mmoja upande wa kuume wa bakuli na mwingine upande wa kushoto.”
4 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my master?
Nikamuuliza malaika aliyezungumza nami, “Hivi ni vitu gani, bwana wangu?”
5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my master.
Akanijibu, “Hujui kuwa hivi ni vitu gani?” Nikajibu, “Hapana, bwana wangu.”
6 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.
Kisha akaniambia, “Hili ni neno la Bwana kwa Zerubabeli: ‘Si kwa uwezo, wala si kwa nguvu, bali ni kwa Roho yangu,’ asema Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote.
7 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.
“Wewe ni kitu gani, ee mlima mkubwa sana? Mbele ya Zerubabeli wewe utakuwa ardhi tambarare. Kisha ataweka jiwe la juu kabisa la mwisho na watu wakipiga kelele wakisema, ‘Mungu libariki! Mungu libariki!’”
8 Moreover the word of YHWH came unto me, saying,
Kisha neno la Bwana likanijia:
9 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.
“Mikono ya Zerubabeli iliweka msingi wa Hekalu hili, mikono yake pia italimalizia. Kisha mtajua ya kuwa Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote amenituma mimi kwenu.
10 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.
“Ni nani anayeidharau siku ya mambo madogo? Watu watashangilia watakapoona timazi mkononi mwa Zerubabeli. “(Hizi saba ni macho ya Bwana ambayo huzunguka duniani kote.)”
11 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?
Kisha nikamuuliza yule malaika, “Hii mizeituni miwili iliyoko upande wa kuume na wa kushoto wa kinara cha taa ni nini?”
12 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?
Tena nikamuuliza, “Haya matawi mawili ya mizeituni karibu na hiyo mirija miwili ya dhahabu inayomimina mafuta ya dhahabu ni nini?”
13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my master.
Akajibu, “Hujui kuwa haya ni nini?” Nikamjibu, “Hapana, bwana wangu.”
14 Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Master of the whole earth.
Kwa hiyo akasema, “Hawa ni wawili ambao wamepakwa mafuta ili kumtumikia Bwana wa dunia yote.”
