< Zechariah 4 >

1 The angel who talked with me came again and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep.
Anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom vrati se tad i probudi me kao čovjeka koji se oda sna budi.
2 He said to me, “What do you see?” I said, “I have seen, and behold, a lamp stand all of gold, with its bowl on the top of it, and its seven lamps on it; there are seven pipes to each of the lamps which are on the top of it;
“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 by it, one on the right side of the bowl, and the other on the left side of it.”
Dvije su masline kraj njega, jedna njemu zdesna, druga slijeva.”
4 I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
Obratih se anđelu koji je govorio sa mnom i upitah ga: “Što je to, gospodaru?”
5 Then the angel who talked with me answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.”
Anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom odgovori mi: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Ja rekoh: “Ne, gospodaru.”
6 Then he answered and spoke to me, saying, “This is Yahweh’s word to Zerubbabel, saying, ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says Yahweh of Armies.
[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, great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you are a plain; and he will bring out the capstone with shouts of ‘Grace, grace, to it!’”
Što si ti, goro velika? Pred Zreubabelom postaješ ravnica! On će izvući krunišni kamen uz poklike: “Hvala! Hvala za njega!”
8 Moreover Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
Dođe mi potom riječ Jahvina:
9 “The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house. His hands shall also finish it; and you will know that Yahweh of Armies 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 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 Yahweh’s eyes, which run back and forth through the whole earth.”
[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 Then I asked him, “What are these two olive trees on the right side of the lamp stand and on the left side of it?”
Tad progovorih i zapitah ga: “Što su one dvije masline desno i lijevo od svijećnjaka?”
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?”
Progovorih opet i upitah ga: “Što su one dvije maslinove grančice koje kroz dvije zlatne cijevi dolijevaju ulje?”
13 He answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.”
On mi odgovori: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Odvratih: “Ne, gospodaru!”
14 Then he said, “These are the two anointed ones who stand by the Lord of the whole earth.”
On reče: “To su dva Pomazanika koji stoje pred Gospodarem sve zemlje.”
