Zechariah 4
1 And once more the messenger who was speaking with me, roused me up, just as a man might be roused up out of his sleep.
Ary niverina ilay anjely niresaka tamiko ka namoha ahy toy ny olona fohazina amin-tory.
2 Then said he unto me, What canst thou see? And I said—I have looked, and lo! a Lampstand—all of gold, with the Bowl thereof upon the top thereof, and its Seven Lamps upon it, Seven Pipes each, to the lamps which are upon the top thereof;
Dia hoy izy tamiko: Inona no hitanao? Ary hoy izaho: Hitako fa, indro, misy fanaovan-jiro tena volamena, ary ny fitoeran-diloilony dia eo an-tampony, ary ny lela fanaovan-jirony fito kosa dia eo aminy, ary misy fantsona fito avy amin’ ny isan’ ny lela fanaovan-jiro izay eo an-tampony;
3 and, Two Olive-trees, by it, —one upon the right hand of the bowl, and one upon the left hand thereof.
ary misy hazo oliva roa eo anilany, ny anankiray eo ankavanan’ ny fitoeran-diloilo, ary ny anankiray eo an-kaviany.
4 Then responded I, and said unto the messenger who was speaking with me, saying, —What are these, my lord?
Dia niteny tamin’ ilay anjely niresaka tamiko aho nanao hoe: Inona moa ireo, tompoko?
5 Then answered the messenger who was speaking with me, and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these, are? And I said, No my lord.
Ary ilay anjely niresaka tamiko dia namaly ka nanao tamiko hoe: Tsy fantatrao va ireo? Fa hoy izaho: Tsia, tompoko.
6 Then responded he, and spake unto me, saying, This, is the word of Yahweh, unto Zerubbabel, saying, —Not by wealth, nor by strength, but by my spirit, saith Yahweh of hosts.
Dia namaly izy ka nanao tamiko hoe: Izao no tenin’ i Jehovah amin’ i Zerobabela: Tsy amin-kery na amim-pahatanjahana, fa amin’ ny Fanahiko, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro.
7 Who, art, thou, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel, [brought down] to a plain! So shall he bring forth the headstone, with thundering shouts Beautiful! Beautiful! thereunto.
Iza moa ianao, ry tendrombohitra lehibe? Ho tonga tany lemaka eo anoloan’ i Zerobabela ianao; ary ho entiny mivoaka ny vato hatao tendrony sady hisy fiantsoana hoe: Fahasoavana, fahasoavana anie ho aminy!
8 Then came the word of Yahweh unto me, saying:
Dia tonga tamiko indray ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
9 The hands of Zerubbabel, have founded this house, and, his hands, shall finish it, —So shalt thou know that, Yahweh of hosts, hath sent me unto you.
Ny tànan’ i Zerobabela no nanao ny fanorenan’ ity trano ity, ary ny tànany koa no hamita azy; ka dia ho fantatrao fa Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no naniraka ahy ho aminao.
10 For who hath despised the day of small things? Yet shall they rejoice, when they see the plummet-stone in the hand of Zerubbabel, —these seven! The eyes of Yahweh, they are—running to and fro throughout all the earth.
Fa iza no nanamavo ny andron’ ny zava-madinika? Ho faly mahita ny pilao eny an-tànan’ i Zerobabela ireo fito ireo, dia ny mason’ i Jehovah, izay mijery eny tontolo eny eran’ ny tany rehetra
11 Then responded I, and said unto him, —What are these two olive-trees, upon the right of the lampstand, and upon the left thereof?
Dia namaly aho ka nanao taminy hoe: Inona moa ireo hazo oliva roa eo ankavanan’ ny fanaovan-jiro sy eo an-kaviany ireo?
12 And I responded a second time, and said unto him, —What are the two branches of the olive- trees which join the two golden tubes, which empty out of them the golden oil?
Ary namaly koa aho ka nanao taminy hoe: Inona moa ireo sampahon’ oliva roa eo amin’ ny fantsona volamena izay mampijononoka ny diloilo volamena avy ao aminy ireo?
13 And he spake unto me, saying, Knowest thou not what these are? And I said, No, my lord.
Dia namaly izy hoe: Tsy fantatrao va ireo? Ary hoy izaho: Tsia, tompoko.
14 Then said he, These, are the two Anointed Ones, —who stand near the Lord of all the earth.
Dia hoy izy: Ireo no zana-diloilo roa, izay mitsangana eo anoloan’ ny Tompon’ ny tany rehetra.
