< Zacarias 4 >

1 Kalpasanna, nagsubli ti anghel a nakisarsarita kaniak ket riniingnak a kas iti maysa a tao a nagriing iti pannaturogna.
The angel who talked with me came again and wakened me, as a man who 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.
He said to me, “What do you see?” I said, “I have seen, and behold, a lamp stand all of gold, with its bowl on the top of it, and its seven lamps on it; there are seven pipes to each of the lamps which are on the top of it;
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 on the right side of the bowl, and the other on the left side of it.”
4 Isu a kinasaritak manen ti anghel a nakisarsarita kaniak. Kinunak, “Apok ania ti kaipapanan dagitoy a banbanag?”
I answered and spoke to the angel who 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,”.
Then the angel who talked with me answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” 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.
Then he answered and spoke to me, saying, “This is the LORD’s word to Zerubbabel, saying, ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD of Armies.
7 'Aniaka koma, dakkel a bantay? Iti sangoanan ni Zerubbabel, agbalinkanto a patad, ket iruarna ti kangrunaan a bato a mangipukkaw, “Parabur! Parabur!””
Who are you, great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you are a plain; and he will bring out the capstone with shouts of ‘Grace, grace, to it!’”
8 Immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh:
Moreover the LORD’s word came to 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 you will know that the LORD of Armies has sent me to 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.)”
Indeed, who despises the day of small things? For these seven shall rejoice, and shall see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. These are the LORD’s eyes, which run back and forth 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 I asked him, “What are these two olive trees on the right side of the lamp stand and on the left side of it?”
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?
I asked him the second time, “What are these two olive branches, which are beside the two golden spouts that pour the golden oil out of themselves?”
13 “Apay saanmo pay nga ammo no ania dagitoy?” Ket kinunak, “Saan, apok.”
He answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” 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.”
Then he said, “These are the two anointed ones who stand by the Lord of the whole earth.”
