Zechariah 4:6-10

6Then he 1saidH559 to me, “ThisH2088 is the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 to 2ZerubbabelH2216 sayingH559, ‘3Not by mightH2428 norH3808 by powerH3581, but by My 4SpiritH7307,’ saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635. 7‘WhatH4310 are you, O greatH1419 5mountainH2022? BeforeH6440 ZerubbabelH2216 you will become a plainH4334; and he will bringH3318 forthH3318 the topH7222 stoneH68 with 6shoutsH8663 of “GraceH2580, graceH2580 to it!”’”

8Also the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, 9“The handsH3027 of ZerubbabelH2216 have 7laidH3245 the foundationH3245 of thisH2088 houseH1004, and his handsH3027 will 8finishH1214 it. Then you will knowH3045 that the LordH3068 of hostsH6635 has sentH7971 me to 9you. 10For whoH4310 has despisedH936 the dayH3117 of 10smallH6996 thingsH6996? 11But theseH428 12sevenH7651 will be gladH8055 when they seeH7200 the 13 14plumbH913 H68 lineH68 H913 in the handH3027 of ZerubbabelH2216--these are the 15eyesH5869 of the LordH3068 whichH1992 16rangeH7751 to and froH7751 throughoutH3605 the earthH776.”
