< 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 said unto 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 his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven 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 by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.
4 Isu a kinasaritak manen ti anghel a nakisarsarita kaniak. Kinunak, “Apok ania ti kaipapanan dagitoy a banbanag?”
So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my master?
5 Simmungbat ti anghel a nakisarsarita kaniak a kunana, “Apay saanmo pay nga ammo ti kaipapanan dagitoy a banbanag?” Kinunak, “Saan apok,”.
Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my master.
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.
Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of YHWH unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith YHWH 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 shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Favour, favour unto it.
8 Immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh:
Moreover the word of YHWH 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; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that YHWH 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? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of YHWH, which run to and fro through 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?”
Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?
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 again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?
13 “Apay saanmo pay nga ammo no ania dagitoy?” Ket kinunak, “Saan, apok.”
And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my master.
14 Isu a kinunana, “Ibagbagi dagitoy dua a kayo nga olibo ti dua a lallaki nga agserserbi iti Apo iti entero a daga.”
Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Master of the whole earth.
