Zechariah 4
1 Then the angel who was talking with me turned and roused me like a man roused from his sleep.
Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi ahụ nke na-agwa m okwu lọghachiri kpọtee m, dịka e si akpọte onye nọ nʼụra.
2 He said to me, “What do you see?” I said, “I see a lampstand made entirely of gold, with a bowl on its top. It has seven lamps on it and seven lamp wicks at the top of each lamp.
Ọ sịrị m, “Gịnị ka ị na-ahụ?” Asịrị m, “Ana m ahụ ihe ịdọba oriọna e ji ọlaedo mee. O nwere ọkwa nʼisi ya, nweekwa oriọna asaa, nke na-enwu nʼelu ya. Oriọna asaa ndị a nwekwara okporo asaa e si agbanye mmanụ nʼime ha.
3 Two olive trees are by it, one on the right side of the bowl and the other on the left side.”
Ahụkwara m osisi oliv abụọ nke dị nʼakụkụ ihe ịdọba oriọna ahụ. Otu dị nʼotu akụkụ ya, nke ọzọ, nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ.”
4 So I spoke again to the angel who was talking with me. I said, “What do these things mean, my master?”
A sịrị m mmụọ ozi ahụ na-ekwuru m okwu, “Nna m ukwu, gịnị ka nke a pụtara?”
5 The angel who was talking with me answered and said to me, “Do you not know what these things mean?” I said, “No, my master.”
Mmụọ ozi ahụ na-agwa m okwu sịrị m, “Ị na-ekwu na ị maghị ihe ha bụ?” Azara m sị, “Ee, nna m ukwu, amaghị m.”
6 So he said to me, “This is the word of Yahweh to Zerubbabel: Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit, says Yahweh of hosts.
Ọ sịrị m, “Nke a bụ okwu nke Onyenwe anyị nye Zerubabel. ‘Ọ bụghị site nʼike, maọbụ site nʼume, kama ọ bụ site na Mmụọ m,’ ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru.
7 What are you, great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain, and he will bring out the top stone to shouts of 'Grace! Grace to it!'”
“Gịnị ka ị bụ, gị ugwu dị ukwuu? Ị ga-aghọ ala dị larịị nʼihu Zerubabel. Mgbe ahụ, ọ ga-awapụta isi nkume ahụ site nʼiti oke mkpu ọṅụ, ‘Amara! Amara dịrị ya!’”
8 The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Mgbe ahụ, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị sị,
9 “The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house and his hands will bring it to completion.” Then you will know that Yahweh of hosts has sent me to you.
“Zerubabel wara ntọala ụlọnsọ ukwu a, ọ bụ ya ga-ewuchakwa ya. Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-amata na ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile zitere m ịbịakwute unu.
10 Who has despised the day of small things? These people will rejoice and will see the plumb stone in the hand of Zerubbabel. (These seven lamps are the eyes of Yahweh that roam over the whole earth.)
“Onye na-eleda ụbọchị ihe nta anya ebe ọ bụ nʼanya asaa nke Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile na-ejegharị na-elezu ụwa dum, ga-aṅụ ọṅụ mgbe ha hụrụ nkume eji atụ mgbidi nʼaka Zerubabel?”
11 Then I asked the angel, “What are these two olive trees that stand on the left and the right of the lampstand?”
Mgbe ahụ, a sịrị m ya, “Gịnị bụ osisi oliv abụọ ahụ dị nʼaka nri na nʼaka ekpe ihe ịdọba oriọna ahụ?”
12 Once more I asked him, “What are these two olive branches beside the two gold pipes that have golden oil pouring out of them?”
A sịkwara m ya nke ugboro abụọ, “Gịnị bụ alaka osisi oliv abụọ ndị a dị nʼakụkụ okporo ọlaedo abụọ ahụ, nke e si na ha na-awụpụta mmanụ ọlaedo?”
13 Then he said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” I said, “No, my master.”
Ọ sịrị m, “Ọ pụtara na ị maghị ihe ha bụ?” Asịrị m, “Mba, nna m ukwu.”
14 So he said, “These are the sons of fresh olive oil who stand before the Lord of all the earth.”
Mgbe ahụ, ọ sịrị m, “Ndị a bụ mmadụ abụọ a họpụtara tee mmanụ, ife ya ofufe bụ Onyenwe ụwa niile.”
