Zaccharias Propheta 4

1 Et reversus est angelus, qui loquebatur in me, et suscitavit me, quasi virum, qui suscitatur de somno suo.

And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.

2 Et dixit ad me: Quid tu vides? Et dixi: Vidi, et ecce candelabrum aureum totum, et lampas eius super caput ipsius, et septem lucernae eius super illud: et septem infusoria lucernis, quae erant super caput eius.

And said to me, What see you? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl on the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are on the top thereof:

3 Et duae olivae super illud: una a dextris lampadis, et una a sinistris eius.

And two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl, and the other on the left side thereof.

4 Et respondi, et aio ad angelum, qui loquebatur in me, dicens: Quid sunt haec, domine mi?

So I answered and spoke to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?

5 Et respondit angelus, qui loquebatur in me, et dixit ad me: Numquid nescis quid sunt haec? Et dixi: Non, domine mi.

Then the angel that talked with me answered and said to me, Know you not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.

6 Et respondit, et ait ad me, dicens: Hoc est verbum Domini ad Zorobabel, dicens: Non in exercitu, nec in robore, sed in spiritu meo, dicit Dominus exercituum.

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, says the LORD of hosts.

7 Quis tu mons magne coram Zorobabel? in planum: et educet lapidem primarium, et exaequabit gratiam gratiae eius.

Who are you, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace to it.

8 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:

Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

9 Manus Zorobabel fundaverunt domum istam, et manus eius perficient eam: et scietis quia Dominus exercituum misit me ad vos.

The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and you shall know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you.

10 Quis enim despexit dies parvos? et laetabuntur, et videbunt lapidem stanneum in manu Zorobabel. Septem isti oculi sunt Domini, qui discurrunt in universam terram.

For who has 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 Et respondi, et dixi ad eum: Quid sunt duae olivae istae ad dexteram candelabri, et ad sinistram eius?

Then answered I, and said to him, What are these two olive trees on the right side of the candlestick and on the left side thereof?

12 Et respondi secundo, et dixi ad eum: Quid sunt duae spicae olivarum, quae sunt iuxta duo rostra aurea, in quibus sunt suffusoria ex auro?

And I answered again, and said to him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?

13 Et ait ad me, dicens: Numquid nescis quid sunt haec? Et dixi: Non, domine mi.

And he answered me and said, Know you not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.

14 Et dixit: Isti sunt duo filii olei, qui assistunt Dominatori universae terrae.

Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the LORD of the whole earth.
