Zechariah 4
1 And the angel that spoke with me came back again, and waked me up, as a man that is wakened up 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 art thou seeing? And I said, I have looked, and behold, there is a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon its top, and its seven lamps are thereupon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon its top:
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 are by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.
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 commenced and said unto the angel that spoke 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 Then the angel that spoke 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 Then answered he and spoke 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.
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 wilt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone with shoutings of, 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 the Lord 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 complete it: and thou shalt know that the Lord 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 whoever even despised the day of [its] small beginning: yet will they rejoice when they see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel, with those seven; they are the eyes of the Lord, which hold a survey through all the 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 began, and said unto him, What are these two olive-trees upon the right side of the candle-stick and upon 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 began a second time, and said unto him, What are these two olive-branches, which are close by the two golden pipes which empty out of themselves the gold-colored oil?
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 said to me as followeth, Knowest thou not what these things 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 Then said he, These are the two sons of the clear oil, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
他說：「這是兩個受膏者站在普天下主的旁邊。」
