Zechariah 4:4-10

English Standard Version

⁴ And I said to ^(A)the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?” ⁵ Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, ^(B)“Do you not know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.” ⁶ Then he said to me, “This is the word of the Lord to ^(C)Zerubbabel: ^(D)Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of hosts. ⁷ Who are you, ^(E)O great mountain? Before ^(F)Zerubbabel ^(G)you shall become a plain. And he shall bring forward ^(H)the top stone amid shouts of ‘Grace, grace to it!’”

⁸ Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying, ^9 (I)“The hands of ^(J)Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also ^(K)complete it. ^(L)Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you. ^10 (M)For whoever has despised the day of small things shall rejoice, and shall see ^(N)the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel.

^(O)“These seven ^(P)are the eyes of the Lord, ^(Q)which range through the whole earth.”
