Zechariah 4

The Golden Lampstand and Olive Trees

1Then 1the angelH4397 who was speakingH1696 with me returnedH7725 and 2rousedH5782 me, as a manH376 whoH834 is awakenedH5782 from his sleepH8142. 2He saidH559 to me, “3WhatH4100 do you seeH7200?” And I saidH559, “I seeH7200, and beholdH2009, a 4lampstandH4501 allH3605 of goldH2091 with its bowlH1543 on the topH7218 of it, and its 5sevenH7651 lampsH5216 on it with sevenH7651 spoutsH4166 belonging to each of the lampsH5216 whichH834 are on the topH7218 of it; 3also 6twoH8147 oliveH2132 treesH2132 by it, oneH259 on the rightH3225 sideH3225 of the bowlH1543 and the otherH259 on its leftH8040 sideH8040.” 4Then I saidH559 to the angelH4397 who was speakingH1696 with me sayingH559, “WhatH4100 are theseH428, 7my lordH113?” 5So 8the angelH4397 who was speakingH1696 with me answeredH6030 and saidH559 to me, “9Do you not knowH3045 whatH4100 theseH428 are?” And I saidH559, “NoH3808, my lordH113.” 6Then he 10saidH559 to me, “ThisH2088 is the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 to 11ZerubbabelH2216 sayingH559, ‘12Not by mightH2428 norH3808 by powerH3581, but by My 13SpiritH7307,’ saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635. 7‘WhatH4310 are you, O greatH1419 14mountainH2022? BeforeH6440 ZerubbabelH2216 you will become a plainH4334; and he will bringH3318 forthH3318 the topH7222 stoneH68 with 15shoutsH8663 of “GraceH2580, graceH2580 to it!”’”

8Also the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, 9“The handsH3027 of ZerubbabelH2216 have 16laidH3245 the foundationH3245 of thisH2088 houseH1004, and his handsH3027 will 17finishH1214 it. Then you will knowH3045 that the LordH3068 of hostsH6635 has sentH7971 me to 18you. 10For whoH4310 has despisedH936 the dayH3117 of 19smallH6996 thingsH6996? 20But theseH428 21sevenH7651 will be gladH8055 when they seeH7200 the 2223plumbH913H68 lineH68H913 in the handH3027 of ZerubbabelH2216--these are the 24eyesH5869 of the LordH3068 whichH1992 25rangeH7751 to and froH7751 throughoutH3605 the earthH776.”

11Then I saidH559 to him, “WhatH4100 are theseH428 26twoH8147 oliveH2132 treesH2132 on the rightH3225 of the lampstandH4501 and on its leftH8040?” 12And I answeredH6030 the secondH8145 timeH8145 and saidH559 to him, “WhatH4100 are the twoH8147 oliveH2132 27branchesH7641 whichH834 are besideH3027 the twoH8147 goldenH2091 pipesH6804, which emptyH7385 the goldenH2091 oil from themselves?” 13So he answeredH559 me, sayingH559, “28Do you not knowH3045 whatH4100 theseH428 are?” And I saidH559, “NoH3808, 29my lordH113.” 14Then he saidH559, “TheseH428 are the twoH8147 3031anointedH1121H3323 onesH1121 who are 32standingH5975 by the 33LordH136 of the wholeH3605 earthH776.”
