< 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;
And the Angel that talked with mee, came againe and waked mee, as a man that is raysed out of his sleepe,
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:
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.
3 And two olive-trees are by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.
And two oliue trees ouer it, one vpon the right side of the bowle, and the other vpon the left side thereof.
4 And I commenced and said unto the angel that spoke with me, saying, What are these, my lord?
So I answered, and spake to the Angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my Lord?
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.
Then the Angel that talked with mee, answered and said vnto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my Lord.
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.
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.
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.
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.
8 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
Moreouer, the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
Then answered I, and said vnto him, What are these two oliue trees vpon the right and vpon the left side thereof?
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?
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?
13 And he said to me as followeth, Knowest thou not what these things are? And I said, No, my lord.
And hee answered me, and saide, Knowest thou not what these bee? And I sayde, No, my Lord.
14 Then said he, These are the two sons of the clear oil, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
Then said he, These are the two oliue branches, that stand with the ruler of the whole earth.
