Then athe angel who was speaking
with me returned
and broused
me, as a man
who
is awakened
from his sleep
.
He said to me, " aWhat
do you see
?" And I said
, "I see
, and behold
, a blampstand
all
of gold
with its bowl
on the top
of it, and its cseven
lamps
on it with seven
spouts
belonging to each of the lamps
which
are on the top
of it;
also atwo olive
trees
by it, one
on the right
side
of the bowl
and the other
on its left
side
."
Then I said to the angel
who was speaking
with me saying
, "What
are these
, amy lord
?"
So athe angel who was speaking
with me answered
and said
to me, " bDo you not know
what
these
are?" And I said
, "No
, my lord
."
Then he 1said to me, "This
is the word
of the LORD
to aZerubbabel
saying
, ` bNot by might
nor
by power
, but by My cSpirit
,' says
the LORD
of hosts
.
`What are you, O great
amountain
? Before
Zerubbabel
you will become a plain
; and he will bring
forth
the top
stone
with bshouts
of "Grace
, grace
to it!""'
Also the word of the LORD
came
to me, saying
,
"The hands of Zerubbabel
have alaid
the foundation
of this
house
, and his hands
will bfinish
it. Then you will know
that the LORD
of hosts
has sent
me to 1you.
"For who has despised
the day
of asmall
things
? 1But these
bseven
will be glad
when they see
the 2 cplumb
line
in the hand
of Zerubbabel
--these are the deyes
of the LORD
which
erange
to and fro
throughout
the earth
."
Then I said to him, "What
are these
atwo
olive
trees
on the right
of the lampstand
and on its left
?"
And I answered the second
time
and said
to him, "What
are the two
olive
1branches
which
are beside
the two
golden
pipes
, which empty
the golden
oil from themselves?"
So he answered me, saying
, " aDo you not know
what
these
are?" And I said
, "No
, bmy lord
."
Then he said, "These
are the two
1 aanointed
ones
who are bstanding
by the cLord
of the whole
earth
."
