Zacharie 4
1 L'ange qui parlait avec moi revint, et il me réveilla comme un homme qui se réveille de son sommeil.
And the angel who had been speaking with me returned, and he awakened me, like a man who is awakened from his sleep.
2 Et il me dit: " Que vois-tu? " Je répondis: " J'ai vu, et voici un candélabre tout en or, avec son bassin à son sommet, portant ses sept lampes avec sept conduits pour les lampes qui sont au sommet du candélabre.
And he said to me, “What do you see?” And I said, “I looked, and behold, a candlestick entirely in gold, and its lamp was at its top, and seven oil lamps of it were upon it, and there were seven funnels for the oil lamps that were at its top.
3 Et deux oliviers sont à côté de lui, l'un à droite du bassin, et l'autre à sa gauche. "
And there were two olive trees upon it: one to the right of the lamp, and one to its left.”
4 Et je repris la parole et je dis à l'ange qui parlait avec moi: " Que sont ces choses, mon seigneur? "
And I answered and spoke to the angel who was speaking with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
5 L'ange qui parlait avec moi me répondit et me dit: " Ne sais-tu pas ce que sont ces choses? " Je répondis: " Non, mon seigneur. "
And the angel who was speaking with me answered, and he said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.”
6 Et il reprit et me dit: Ceci est la parole de Yahweh à Zorobabel, savoir: " Ni par une armée, ni par la force, mais par mon Esprit, dit Yahweh des armées.
And he answered and spoke to me, saying: This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying: Not by an army, nor by might, but in my spirit, says the Lord of hosts.
7 Qui es-tu, grande montagne, devant Zorobabel? Tu seras une plaine. Et il élèvera la pierre du sommet au milieu des acclamations: Grâce, grâce sur elle! "
What are you, great mountain, in the sight of Zerubbabel? You are among the plains. And he will lead out the primary stone, and he will give equal grace to its grace.
8 La parole de Yahweh me fut adressée en ces termes:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
9 " Les mains de Zorobabel ont fondé cette maison, et ses mains l'achèveront, et tu sauras que Yahweh des armées m'a envoyé vers vous.
The hand of Zerubbabel has founded this house, and his hands will complete it. And you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you.
10 Car qui mépriserait le temps des petites choses? Ils se réjouiront en voyant le fil à plomb dans la main de Zorobabel. " " Ces sept lampes sont les yeux de Yahweh, qui parcourent toute la terre. "
For who has despised the little days? And they will rejoice and will see the silver and lead stone in the hand of Zerubbabel. These are the seven eyes of the Lord, which roam quickly through all the earth.
11 Je repris la parole et je lui dis: " Que sont ces deux oliviers à la droite du candélabre et à sa gauche? "
And I responded and said to him, “What are these two olive trees to the right of the candlestick, and to its left?”
12 Je repris une seconde fois la parole et lui dis: " Que sont ces deux grappes d'olivier qui se trouvent auprès des deux entonnoirs d'or d'où l'or découle? "
And I responded a second time and said to him, “What are the two olive branches, which are next to the two golden ridges, in which are the pouring spouts of gold?”
13 Il me parla en ces termes: " Ne sais-tu pas ce que c'est? " Je répondis: " Non, mon seigneur. "
And he spoke to me, saying, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.”
14 Et il me dit: " Ce sont les deux fils de l'onction qui se tiennent prés du Seigneur de toute la terre. "
And he said, “These are the two sons of oil, who attend before the Sovereign of all the earth.”
