< 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,
Anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom vrati se tad i probudi me kao čovjeka koji se oda sna budi.
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:
“Što vidiš?” - upita. Ja odgovorih: “Vidim, evo, svijećnjak, sav od zlata, s posudom za ulje vrh njega; i sedam je žižaka na svijećnjaku, sa sedam lijevaka za sedam žižaka što su na njemu.
3 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right [side] of the bowl, and the other upon the left [side] thereof.
Dvije su masline kraj njega, jedna njemu zdesna, druga slijeva.”
4 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What [are] these, my lord?
Obratih se anđelu koji je govorio sa mnom i upitah ga: “Što je to, gospodaru?”
5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
Anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom odgovori mi: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Ja rekoh: “Ne, gospodaru.”
6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This [is] the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.
[6a] On mi tad odgovori ovako: [6b]Evo riječi Jahvine Zerubabelu: “Ne silom niti snagom, već duhom mojim!” - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama.
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], Grace, grace unto it.
Što si ti, goro velika? Pred Zreubabelom postaješ ravnica! On će izvući krunišni kamen uz poklike: “Hvala! Hvala za njega!”
8 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Dođe mi potom riječ Jahvina:
9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you.
Zerubabelove su ruke ovaj Dom utemeljile, njegove će ga ruke završiti. I vi ćete znati da me k vama poslao Jahve nad Vojskama.
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 the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.
[10a] Jer, tko je prezreo dan skromnih početaka? Radovat će se kad vide olovni visak u ruci Zerubabelovoj. [10b] “Ovih sedam oči su Jahvine što strijeljaju po svoj zemlji.”
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?
Tad progovorih i zapitah ga: “Što su one dvije masline desno i lijevo od svijećnjaka?”
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?
Progovorih opet i upitah ga: “Što su one dvije maslinove grančice koje kroz dvije zlatne cijevi dolijevaju ulje?”
13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these [be]? And I said, No, my lord.
On mi odgovori: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Odvratih: “Ne, gospodaru!”
14 Then said he, These [are] the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
On reče: “To su dva Pomazanika koji stoje pred Gospodarem sve zemlje.”
