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 waked 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 candlestick: all [of] gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which [were] 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].
4 Mwen te di a zanj ki t ap pale avè m nan. Mwen te di: “Kisa sa yo ye mèt mwen?”
So I answered and spoke to the angel that talked with me, saying, What [are] 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 that talked with me answered and said to me, Knowest thou not what these are? 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 spoke to me, saying, This [is] the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD 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!”’”
Who [art] thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel [thou shalt become] a plain: and he shall bring forth [its] head-stone [with] shoutings, [crying], Grace, grace, to it.
8 Anplis, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote mwen. Li te di:
Moreover the word of the LORD 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; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD 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? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel [with] those seven; they [are] the eyes of the LORD, 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 answered, and said to him, What [are] these two olive-trees upon the right [side] of the candlestick and upon its left [side]?
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 answered again, and said to him, What [are these] two olive branches which through the two golden pipes 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 [are]? 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.”
Then said he, These [are] the two anointed ones, that stand by the LORD of the whole earth.
