Zechariah 4

1 And the messenger who is speaking with me turns back, and stirs me up as one who is stirred up 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 he says to me, “What are you seeing?” And I say, “I have looked, and behold, a lampstand of gold—all of it, and its bowl [is] on its top, and its seven lamps [are] on it, and twice seven pipes [are] to the lights that [are] on its top,

“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 [are] by it, one on the right of the bowl and one on its left.”

Dvije su masline kraj njega, jedna njemu zdesna, druga slijeva.”

4 And I answer and speak to the messenger who is speaking with me, saying, “What [are] these, my lord?”

Obratih se anđelu koji je govorio sa mnom i upitah ga: “Što je to, gospodaru?”

5 And the messenger who is speaking with me answers and says to me, “Have you not known what these [are]?” And I say, “No, my lord.”

Anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom odgovori mi: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Ja rekoh: “Ne, gospodaru.”

6 And he answers and speaks to me, saying, “This [is] a word of YHWH to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by a force, nor by power, But—by My Spirit, said YHWH 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 [are] you, O great mountain Before Zerubbabel—for a plain! And he has brought forth the top-stone, Cries of Grace, grace—[are] to it.”

Što si ti, goro velika? Pred Zreubabelom postaješ ravnica! On će izvući krunišni kamen uz poklike: “Hvala! Hvala za njega!”

8 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,

Dođe mi potom riječ Jahvina:

9 “Hands of Zerubbabel founded this house, And his hands finish it, And you have known that YHWH of Hosts Has sent Me to 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 trampled on the day of small things, They have rejoiced, And seen the tin weight in the hand of Zerubbabel, These seven [are] the eyes of YHWH, They are going to and fro in all the land.”

[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 And I answer and say to him, “What [are] these two olive-trees, on the right of the lampstand, and on its left?”

Tad progovorih i zapitah ga: “Što su one dvije masline desno i lijevo od svijećnjaka?”

12 And I answer a second time, and say to him, “What [are] the two branches of the olive trees that, by means of the two golden pipes, are emptying out of themselves the oil?”

Progovorih opet i upitah ga: “Što su one dvije maslinove grančice koje kroz dvije zlatne cijevi dolijevaju ulje?”

13 And he speaks to me, saying, “Have you not known what these [are]?” And I say, “No, my lord.”

On mi odgovori: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Odvratih: “Ne, gospodaru!”

14 And he says, “These [are] the two sons of the oil, who are standing by the Lord of the whole earth.”

On reče: “To su dva Pomazanika koji stoje pred Gospodarem sve zemlje.”
