< Zacarias 4 >

1 Kalpasanna, nagsubli ti anghel a nakisarsarita kaniak ket riniingnak a kas iti maysa a tao a nagriing iti pannaturogna.
And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.
2 Kinunana kaniak, “Ania ti makitkitam? Kinunak, “Makitkitak ti maysa a kandelero a pasig a balitok, nga adda malukong iti rabawna. Addaan daytoy iti pito a pagsilawan ken addaan iti pito a pabelo iti rabaw ti tunggal pagsilawan.
And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I see, and behold, a lamp-stand all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps thereon, seven [lamps] and seven pipes to the lamps, which are upon the top thereof;
3 Adda dua a kayo nga olibo iti abay daytoy, maysa iti makannawan ti malukong ken maysa iti makannigid.”
and two olive-trees beside it, one on the right of the bowl, and the other on the left of it.
4 Isu a kinasaritak manen ti anghel a nakisarsarita kaniak. Kinunak, “Apok ania ti kaipapanan dagitoy a banbanag?”
And I answered and spoke to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?
5 Simmungbat ti anghel a nakisarsarita kaniak a kunana, “Apay saanmo pay nga ammo ti kaipapanan dagitoy a banbanag?” Kinunak, “Saan apok,”.
And the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these are? And I said, No, my lord.
6 Isu a kinunana kaniak, “Daytoy ti sao ni Yahweh a para kenni Zerubbabel: 'Saan a babaen iti pigsa wenno pannakabalin, ngem babaen iti Espirituk,' kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
And he answered and spoke unto me, saying, This is the word of Jehovah unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith Jehovah of hosts.
7 'Aniaka koma, dakkel a bantay? Iti sangoanan ni Zerubbabel, agbalinkanto a patad, ket iruarna ti kangrunaan a bato a mangipukkaw, “Parabur! Parabur!””
Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel [thou dost become] a plain; and he shall bring forth the head-stone with shoutings: Grace, grace unto it!
8 Immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh:
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
9 “Impasdek ni Zerubabel ti pundasion daytoy a balay ket leppasennanto daytoy. Ket maammoanyonto nga imbaonnak ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin kadakayo.
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 unto you.
10 Siasino ti nangumsi kadagiti aldaw dagiti babassit a banbanag a nagappuanan? Agrag-onto dagitoy a tattao ket makitadanto ti bato a pangrukod iti kalinteg ti pasdek iti ima ni Zerubbabel. (Ibagbagi dagitoy pito a pagsilawan dagiti mata ni Yahweh a mangwanwanawan iti entero a daga.)”
For who hath despised the day of small things? Yea, they shall rejoice [even] those seven — and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel: these are the eyes of Jehovah, which run to and fro in the whole earth.
11 Ket sinaludsodko ti anghel, “Ania dagitoy dua a kayo nga olibo a nakatakder iti makannigid ken makannawan a sikigan ti kandelero?”
And I answered and said unto him, What are these two olive-trees on the right of the lamp-stand and on its left?
12 Sinaludsodko pay kenkuana iti maminsan, “Ania dagitoy a dua a sanga ti olibo iti abay dagiti dua a balitok a tubo a pagay-ayusan ti maris balitok a lana?
And I answered the second time and said unto him, What are the two olive-branches which are beside the two golden tubes that empty the gold out of themselves?
13 “Apay saanmo pay nga ammo no ania dagitoy?” Ket kinunak, “Saan, apok.”
And he spoke to me, saying, Knowest thou not what these are? And I said, No, my lord.
14 Isu a kinunana, “Ibagbagi dagitoy dua a kayo nga olibo ti dua a lallaki nga agserserbi iti Apo iti entero a daga.”
And he said, These are the two sons of oil, that stand before the Lord of the whole earth.
