< Zechariah 4 >
1 And he returned the angel who was speaking with me and he roused me like a person who he is roused from sleep his.
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.
2 And he said to me what? [are] you seeing (and I said *Q(K)*) I see - and there! a lampstand of gold all of it and a bowl [is] on top its and seven lamps its [are] on it seven and seven pipes [belong] to the lamps which [are] on top its.
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;
3 And two olive trees [were] at it one from [the] right [side] of the bowl and one at left [side] its.
and, Two Olive-trees, by it, —one upon the right hand of the bowl, and one upon the left hand thereof.
4 And I answered and I said to the angel who was speaking with me saying what? [are] these O lord my.
Then responded I, and said unto the messenger who was speaking with me, saying, —What are these, my lord?
5 And he answered the angel who was speaking with me and he said to me ¿ not do you know what? they [are] these and I said no O lord my.
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.
6 And he answered and he said to me saying this [is] [the] word of Yahweh to Zerubbabel saying not by strength and not by power that except by spirit my he says Yahweh of hosts.
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.
7 Who? [are] you O mountain great before Zerubbabel level ground and he will bring forth the stone top shouting grace grace to it.
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.
8 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Then came the word of Yahweh unto me, saying:
9 [the] hands of Zerubbabel they have founded the house this and hands his they will finish [it] and you will know that Yahweh of hosts he has sent me to you.
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.
10 For who? has he despised a day of small [things] and they will rejoice and they will see the stone tin in [the] hand of Zerubbabel seven these [the] eyes of Yahweh they [are] roving about in all the earth.
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.
11 And I answered and I said to him what? [are] [the] two the olive trees these at [the] right [side] of the lampstand and at left [side] its.
Then responded I, and said unto him, —What are these two olive-trees, upon the right of the lampstand, and upon the left thereof?
12 And I answered a second [time] and I said to him what? [are] [the] two [the] clusters of the olive trees which [are] at [the] hand of [the] two [the] pipes of gold which are pouring out from on them the gold.
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?
13 And he said to me saying ¿ not do you know what? [are] these and I said no O lord my.
And he spake unto me, saying, Knowest thou not what these are? And I said, No, my lord.
14 And he said these [are] [the] two [the] sons of the fresh oil who stand at [the] lord of all the earth.
Then said he, These, are the two Anointed Ones, —who stand near the Lord of all the earth.
