Zechariah 4:4-7

4I asked the angel who was speaking with me, “What do these things mean, sir?”

5Then the angel asked me, “Don’t you know what they mean?” “No, sir,” I answered.

6Then he replied, “This is the word the Lord spoke to Zerubbabel: You won’t ⌞succeed⌟ by might or by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of Armies.

7What a high mountain you are! In front of Zerubbabel you will become a plain. He will bring out the topmost stone with shouts of ‘Blessings, blessings on it!’ ”
