Zechariah 4
1 The angel who talked with me came again, and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep.
Afei, ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔne me kasaeɛ no sanee nʼakyi bɛnyanee me, sɛdeɛ wɔnyane obi firi ne nna mu no.
2 He said to me, "What do you see?" I said, "I have seen, and look, a lampstand all of gold, with its bowl on the top of it, and its seven lamps thereon; there are seven pipes to each of the lamps, which are on the top of it;
Ɔbisaa me sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wohunu yi?” Mebuaa sɛ, “Mehunu kaneadua a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ayɛ a kuruwa si so, na nkanea nson a ebiara wɔ ne dorobɛn sisi so.
3 and two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl, and the other on the left side of it."
Bio, ngo nnua mmienu sisi ho, baako wɔ kuruwa no nifa so, ɛna baako nso wɔ ne benkum so.”
4 I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, "What are these, my lord?"
Mebisaa ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔne me kasaeɛ no sɛ, “Yeinom yɛ ɛdeɛn, me wura?”
5 Then the angel who talked with me answered me, "Do you not know what these are?" I said, "No, my lord."
Ɔbuaa sɛ, “Wonnim deɛ yeinom yɛ anaa?” Mekaa sɛ, “Dabi, me wura.”
6 Then he answered and spoke to me, saying, "This is the word of Jehovah to Zerubbabel, saying, 'Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says Jehovah of hosts.
Enti ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Yei ne Awurade asɛm a ɔde rekɔma Serubabel: ‘Ɛnyɛ tumi so, na ɛnyɛ ahoɔden nso so, na mmom, ɛnam me Honhom so,’ sɛdeɛ Asafo Awurade seɛ nie.
7 Who are you, great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you are a plain; and he will bring out the capstone with shouts of 'Grace, grace, to it.'"
“Woyɛ ɛdeɛn, Ao bepɔ kɛseɛ? Wobɛyɛ asase tamaa wɔ Serubabel anim. Afei ɔde aboɔ fɛfɛ no bɛba abɛhyia osebɔ sɛ, ‘Onyankopɔn nhyira so! Onyankopɔn nhyira so!’”
8 Moreover the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Na Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ:
9 "The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house. His hands shall also finish it; and you will know that Jehovah of hosts has sent me to you.
“Ɛnam Serubabel nsa so na wɔtoo asɔredan yi fapem, na ɛnam ne nsa so na wɔbɛwie. Na mobɛhunu sɛ, Asafo Awurade na wasoma me mo nkyɛn.
10 Indeed, who despises the day of small things? For these seven shall rejoice, and shall see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. These are the eyes of Jehovah, which run back and forth through the whole earth."
“Hwan na ɔbu nneɛma nketenkete mfiaseɛ ɛda animtiaa? Sɛ nnipa hunu sɛ Serubabel kura kyirebenn susu ahoma no a, wɔn ani bɛgye. “(Saa ani nson yi yɛ Awurade ani a ɛhwɛ ewiase afanan nyinaa.)”
11 Then I asked him, "What are these two olive trees on the right side of the lampstand and on the left side of it?"
Na mebisaa ɔbɔfoɔ no sɛ, “Saa ngo nnua mmienu no a ɛsisi kanea dua no nifa ne benkum no yɛ ɛdeɛn?”
12 I asked him the second time, "What are these two olive branches, which are beside the two golden spouts, that pour the golden oil out of themselves?"
Na mebisaa no bio sɛ, “Ngodua mman mmienu a ɛhwie ngo a ani yɛ akokɔsradeɛ fa sikakɔkɔɔ dorobɛn mmienu no mu no yɛ ɛdeɛn?”
13 He answered me, "Do you not know what these are?" I said, "No, my lord."
Ɔbuaa sɛ, “Enti wonnim deɛ yeinom yɛ anaa?” Mebuaa sɛ, “Dabi, me wura.”
14 Then he said, "These are the two anointed ones who stand by the Lord of the whole earth."
Nti ɔkaa sɛ, “Yeinom ne mmienu a wɔasra wɔn ngo sɛ wɔnsom Awurade a ɔdi ewiase nyinaa so.”
