Zechariah 4 - The Scriptures 1998

¹ And the messenger who was speaking to me came back and woke me up as a man is awakened from sleep.

² And he said to me, “What do you see?” So I said, “I have looked, and see: a lampstand all of gold with a bowl on top of it, and on the stand seven lamps with seven spouts to the seven lamps.

³ “And two olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left.”

⁴ Then I responded and spoke to the messenger who was speaking to me, saying, “What are these, my master?”

⁵ And the messenger who was speaking to me answered and said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my master.”

⁶ And he answered and said to me, “This is the word of יהוה  to Zerubbaḇ

⁷ ‘Who are you, great mountain, before Zerubbaḇ

⁸ And the word of יהוה  came to me, saying,

⁹ “The hands of Zerubbaḇ

¹⁰ “For who has despised the day of small beginnings? They shall rejoice when they see the plumb-line in the hand of Zerubbaḇ

¹¹ Then I responded and said to him, “What are these two olive trees, one at the right of the lampstand and the other at its left?”

¹² And I responded a second time and said to him, “What are these two olive branches which empty golden oil from themselves by means of the two gold pipes?”

¹³ And he answered me and said, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my master.”

¹⁴ And he said, “These are the two anointed ones, who stand beside the Master of all the earth.”
