And the angel that talked
with me came again
, and waked
me, as a man
that is wakened
out of his sleep
,
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:
And two olive trees
by it, one
upon the right
side of the bowl
, and the other
upon the left
side thereof.
So I answered and spake
to the angel
that talked
with me, saying
, What are these, my lord
?
Then the angel that talked
with me answered
and said
unto me, Knowest
thou not what these be? And I said
, No, my lord
.
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
.
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.
Moreover the word of the LORD
came unto me, saying
,
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.
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
.
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?
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?
And he answered me and said
, Knowest
thou not what these be ? And I said
, No, my lord
.
Then said he, These are the two
anointed
ones
, that stand
by the Lord
of the whole earth
.
