撒迦利亞書 4
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
金燈臺和橄欖樹
4 那位與我說話的天使又來喚醒我,像喚醒睡覺的人一樣。 2 他問我:「你看見了什麼?」
我說:「我看見一個純金的燈臺,上面有一個油碗,燈臺上有七盞燈,每盞燈有七個燈芯。 3 燈臺旁邊有兩棵橄欖樹,左右各一棵。」 4 我問與我說話的天使:「主啊,這是什麼意思?」 5 他說:「你不知道嗎?」我說:「主啊,我不知道。」
6 他對我說:「這是耶和華對所羅巴伯講的話。萬軍之耶和華說,『不靠權勢,不靠才能,乃靠我的靈。 7 大山啊,你算什麼?你必在所羅巴伯面前化為平地。他必搬出那塊封殿頂的石頭,伴隨著歡呼聲——願恩典、恩典歸於這殿!』」
8 耶和華的話又傳給了我,說: 9 「所羅巴伯的手奠立這殿的根基,他的手也必完成這項工程。那時你便知道是萬軍之耶和華差遣我到你們這裡來的。 10 誰敢藐視這微不足道的日子?人們看見所羅巴伯手中拿著線錘時,就必歡喜。
「這七盞燈是耶和華遍察天下的眼睛。」
11 我又問天使:「燈臺左右的兩棵橄欖樹是什麼意思?」 12 然後我又問道:「流出橄欖油的兩個金管旁邊的兩根橄欖枝是什麼意思?」 13 他說:「你不知道嗎?」我說:「主啊,我不知道。」 14 他說:「這是侍立在天下之主旁邊的兩位受膏者。」

New International Version
The Gold Lampstand and the Two Olive Trees
4 Then the angel who talked with me returned and woke(A) me up, like someone awakened from sleep.(B) 2 He asked me, “What do you see?”(C)
I answered, “I see a solid gold lampstand(D) with a bowl at the top and seven lamps(E) on it, with seven channels to the lamps. 3 Also there are two olive trees(F) by it, one on the right of the bowl and the other on its left.”
4 I asked the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?”
5 He answered, “Do you not know what these are?”
“No, my lord,” I replied.(G)
6 So he said to me, “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel:(H) ‘Not(I) by might nor by power,(J) but by my Spirit,’(K) says the Lord Almighty.
7 “What are you, mighty mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become level ground.(L) Then he will bring out the capstone(M) to shouts(N) of ‘God bless it! God bless it!’”
8 Then the word of the Lord came to me: 9 “The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation(O) of this temple; his hands will also complete it.(P) Then you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me(Q) to you.
10 “Who dares despise the day(R) of small things,(S) since the seven eyes(T) of the Lord that range throughout the earth will rejoice when they see the chosen capstone[a] in the hand of Zerubbabel?”(U)
11 Then I asked the angel, “What are these two olive trees(V) on the right and the left of the lampstand?”
12 Again I asked him, “What are these two olive branches beside the two gold pipes that pour out golden oil?”
13 He replied, “Do you not know what these are?”
“No, my lord,” I said.
14 So he said, “These are the two who are anointed(W) to[b] serve the Lord of all the earth.”

Vision of the Lampstand and Olive Trees
4 Now (A)the angel who talked with me came back and wakened me, (B)as a man who is wakened out of his sleep. 2 And he said to me, “What do you see?”
So I said, “I am looking, and there is (C)a lampstand of solid gold with a bowl on top of it, (D)and on the stand seven lamps with seven pipes to the seven lamps. 3 (E)Two olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left.” 4 So I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
5 Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, “Do you not know what these are?”
And I said, “No, my lord.”
6 So he answered and said to me:
“This is the word of the Lord to (F)Zerubbabel:
(G)‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’
Says the Lord of hosts.
7 ‘Who are you, (H)O great mountain?
Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain!
And he shall bring forth (I)the capstone
(J)With shouts of “Grace, grace to it!” ’ ”
8 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
9 “The hands of Zerubbabel
(K)Have laid the foundation of this [a]temple;
His hands (L)shall also finish it.
Then (M)you will know
That the (N)Lord of hosts has sent Me to you.
10 For who has despised the day of (O)small things?
For these seven rejoice to see
The [b]plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel.
(P)They are the eyes of the Lord,
Which scan to and fro throughout the whole earth.”
11 Then I answered and said to him, “What are these (Q)two olive trees—at the right of the lampstand and at its left?” 12 And I further answered and said to him, “What are these two olive branches that drip [c]into the receptacles of the two gold pipes from which the golden oil drains?”
13 Then he answered me and said, “Do you not know what these are?”
And I said, “No, my lord.”
14 So he said, (R)“These are the two [d]anointed ones, (S)who stand beside the Lord of the whole earth.”
