Ljusstaken av guld och de två olivträden
4 Ängeln som talade med mig kom tillbaka, och han väckte mig som när någon väcks ur sömnen. 2 Han sade till mig: "Vad ser du?" Jag svarade: "Jag ser en ljusstake, helt av guld, med sin oljeskål upptill och med sina sju lampor. Sju rör går till de särskilda lamporna däruppe. 3 Två olivträd sträcker sig över den, ett på högra sidan om skålen och ett på vänstra." 4 Och jag frågade ängeln som talade med mig: "Vad betyder dessa, min herre?" 5 Ängeln som talade med mig svarade: "Förstår du inte vad de betyder?" "Nej, min herre", sade jag. 6 Då sade han till mig:
"Detta är Herrens ord till Serubbabel:
Inte genom styrka,
inte genom kraft,
utan genom min Ande,
säger Herren Sebaot.
7 Vem är du, du stora berg?
Inför Serubbabel skall du förvandlas till jämn mark.
Ty han skall föra fram slutstenen
medan man ropar: Nåd, nåd över den!"
8 Och Herrens ord kom till mig. Han sade:
9 "Serubbabels händer har lagt grunden till detta hus.
Hans händer skall också göra det färdigt
och du skall förstå att Herren Sebaot har sänt mig till er.
10 Ty vem vill förakta den ringa begynnelsens dag?
De gläds över att se murlodet
i Serubbabels hand,
dessa Herrens sju ögon
som far omkring över hela jorden?"
11 Jag frågade honom: "Vad betyder dessa två olivträd till höger och till vänster om ljusstaken?" 12 Och jag frågade honom igen: "Vad betyder de två olivkvistarna intill de två gyllene rännor som den gyllene oljan rinner ner igenom?" 13 Då sade han till mig: "Förstår du inte vad de betyder?" Jag svarade: "Nej, min herre." 14 Då sade han: "Dessa två är de smorda som står inför hela jordens Herre."

Fifth Vision: Gold Lampstand
4 The angel who was speaking with me then returned and roused me as one awakened out of sleep. 2 He asked me, ‘What do you see? ’
I replied, ‘I see a solid gold lampstand with a bowl at the top. The lampstand also has seven lamps at the top with seven spouts for each of[a] the lamps. 3 There are also two olive trees beside it, one on the right of the bowl and the other on its left.’
4 Then I asked the angel who was speaking with me, ‘What are these, my lord? ’
5 ‘Don’t you know what they are? ’ replied the angel who was speaking with me.
I said, ‘No, my lord.’
6 So he answered me, ‘This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: “Not by strength or by might, but by my Spirit,”(A) says the Lord of Armies. 7 “What are you, great mountain?(B) Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain.(C) And he will bring out the capstone accompanied by shouts of: Grace, grace to it! ” ’
8 Then the word of the Lord came to me:(D) 9 ‘Zerubbabel’s hands have laid the foundation of this house,(E) and his hands will complete it. Then you will know that the Lord of Armies has sent me to you. 10 For who despises the day of small things?(F) These seven eyes of the Lord, which scan throughout the whole earth, will rejoice when they see the ceremonial stone[b] in Zerubbabel’s hand.’(G)
11 I asked him, ‘What are the two olive trees on the right and left of the lampstand? ’ 12 And I questioned him further, ‘What are the two streams[c] of the olive trees, from which the golden oil is pouring through the two golden conduits? ’
13 Then he enquired of me, ‘Don’t you know what these are? ’
‘No, my lord,’ I replied.
14 ‘These are the two anointed ones,’[d](H) he said, ‘who stand by the Lord of the whole earth.’(I)

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.”
