Zakaria 4

1 Ary niverina ilay anjely niresaka tamiko ka namoha ahy toy ny olona fohazina amin-tory.

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

2 Dia hoy izy tamiko: Inona no hitanao? Ary hoy izaho: Hitako fa, indro, misy fanaovan-jiro tena volamena, ary ny fitoeran-diloilony dia eo an-tampony, ary ny lela fanaovan-jirony fito kosa dia eo aminy, ary misy fantsona fito avy amin’ ny isan’ ny lela fanaovan-jiro izay eo an-tampony;

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 ary misy hazo oliva roa eo anilany, ny anankiray eo ankavanan’ ny fitoeran-diloilo, ary ny anankiray eo an-kaviany.

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

4 Dia niteny tamin’ ilay anjely niresaka tamiko aho nanao hoe: Inona moa ireo, tompoko?

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

5 Ary ilay anjely niresaka tamiko dia namaly ka nanao tamiko hoe: Tsy fantatrao va ireo? Fa hoy izaho: Tsia, tompoko.

Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.

6 Dia namaly izy ka nanao tamiko hoe: Izao no tenin’ i Jehovah amin’ i Zerobabela: Tsy amin-kery na amim-pahatanjahana, fa amin’ ny Fanahiko, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro.

Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.

7 Iza moa ianao, ry tendrombohitra lehibe? Ho tonga tany lemaka eo anoloan’ i Zerobabela ianao; ary ho entiny mivoaka ny vato hatao tendrony sady hisy fiantsoana hoe: Fahasoavana, fahasoavana anie ho aminy!

Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.

8 Dia tonga tamiko indray ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:

Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

9 Ny tànan’ i Zerobabela no nanao ny fanorenan’ ity trano ity, ary ny tànany koa no hamita azy; ka dia ho fantatrao fa Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no naniraka ahy ho aminao.

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 unto you.

10 Fa iza no nanamavo ny andron’ ny zava-madinika? Ho faly mahita ny pilao eny an-tànan’ i Zerobabela ireo fito ireo, dia ny mason’ i Jehovah, izay mijery eny tontolo eny eran’ ny tany rehetra

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 Dia namaly aho ka nanao taminy hoe: Inona moa ireo hazo oliva roa eo ankavanan’ ny fanaovan-jiro sy eo an-kaviany ireo?

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 Ary namaly koa aho ka nanao taminy hoe: Inona moa ireo sampahon’ oliva roa eo amin’ ny fantsona volamena izay mampijononoka ny diloilo volamena avy ao aminy ireo?

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 Dia namaly izy hoe: Tsy fantatrao va ireo? Ary hoy izaho: Tsia, tompoko.

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

14 Dia hoy izy: Ireo no zana-diloilo roa, izay mitsangana eo anoloan’ ny Tompon’ ny tany rehetra.

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