Zakari 4
1 Konsa, zanj ki t ap pale avè m nan te retounen. E te Li te fè m Leve tankou yon nonm yo te leve soti nan dòmi.
And the angel that talked with me came again, and awaked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep,
2 Li te di m: “Kisa ou wè?” Mwen te di: “Mwen te wè e vwala, yon chandelye ki fèt nèt an lò, avèk bòl li sou tèt li, ak sèt lanp li yo. Gen sèt bobèch pou chak lanp ki sou li yo.
and said to me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold, a chandelier all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps upon it, and seven pipes to the seven lamps which are upon the top of it;
3 Anplis, gen de bwa doliv yo sou kote li, youn sou kote dwat bòl la, e lòt la sou kote goch la.”
and two olive-trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side of it.
4 Mwen te di a zanj ki t ap pale avè m nan. Mwen te di: “Kisa sa yo ye mèt mwen?”
And I spake, and said to the angel that talked with me, What mean these, my lord?
5 Konsa, zanj ki t ap pale avè m nan te reponn. Li te di m: “Èske ou pa konnen kisa sa yo ye?” Mwen te reponn: “Non, mèt mwen.”
Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, Knowest thou not what these mean? And I said, No, my lord.
6 Epi li te di m: “Sa se pawòl SENYÈ a Zorobabel la ki di: ‘Se pa pa lafòs, ni pa pwisans, men pa Lespri Mwen,’ pale SENYÈ dèzame yo.
Then he answered and spake to me, saying, This is the word of Jehovah to Zerubbabel, saying: — Not by might, nor by power, But by my spirit, Saith Jehovah of hosts.
7 ‘Se kilès ou ye, O gran montay la? Devan Zorobabel, ou va vin tounen tè pla. Konsa, li va fè vin parèt ak wòch prensipal la, ak gwo kri k ap di: “Gras, gras a li!”’”
What art thou, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain! And he shall bring forth the corner-stone amid shoutings, [[The people crying, ]] “Grace, grace be to it!”
8 Anplis, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
Moreover, the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
9 “Men a Zorobabel te poze fondasyon kay sa. Se men l k ap fin fè l. Konsa, ou va konnen ke se SENYÈ dèzame yo ki te voye mwen kote ou.
The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house, and his hands shall finish it. And thou shalt know that Jehovah of hosts hath sent me to you.
10 Paske se kilès ki te meprize jou a ti bagay yo? Men sèt sila yo va rejwi lè yo wè liy a plòn an nan men Zorobabel. Sa yo se zye SENYÈ a k ap veye toupatou sou tout tè a.”
For who hath despised the day of small things? With joy shall the plummet be seen in the hand of Zerubbabel by those seven; they are the eyes of Jehovah, which run to and fro through the whole earth.
11 Mwen te di li: “Se kisa de bwa doliv sila yo ki sou kote dwat ak sou kote goch a chandelye yo ye?”
Then I spake and said to him, What mean these two olive-trees, upon the right side of the chandelier and upon the left side thereof?
12 Mwen te mande l yon dezyèm fwa. Mwen te di li: “Se kisa de branch doliv sila yo ki sou kote de tij an lò k ap vide lwil an lò k ap soti nan yo a?”
And I spake the second time, and said to him, What mean these two olive-branches, which are by the side of the two golden tubes which empty the golden oil out of themselves?
13 Li te reponn mwen, e te di: “Èske ou pa konnen kisa yo ye?” Mwen te di: “Non mèt mwen.”
And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these mean? And I said, No, my lord.
14 Li te di: “Sa yo se de moun onksyone yo ki kanpe akote Mèt a tout tè a.”
And he said, These are the two anointed ones that stand before the Lord of all the earth.
