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.”

The Golden Lampstand and the Olive Trees
4 Then (A)the angel who had been speaking with me returned and (B)woke me, like a person who is awakened from his sleep. 2 And he said to me, “(C)What do you see?” And I said, “I see, and behold, a (D)lampstand all of gold with its bowl on the top of it, and its (E)seven lamps on it with seven [a]spouts belonging to each of the lamps which are on the top of it; 3 also (F)two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl and the other on its left side.” 4 Then I said to the angel who was speaking with me, saying, “What are these, (G)my lord?” 5 So (H)the angel who was speaking with me answered and said to me, “(I)Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.” 6 Then he said to [b]me, “This is the word of the Lord to (J)Zerubbabel, saying, ‘(K)Not by might nor by power, but by My (L)Spirit,’ says the Lord of armies. 7 ‘What are you, you great (M)mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain; and he will bring out the top stone with (N)shouts of “Grace, grace to it!”’”
8 Also the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 9 “The hands of Zerubbabel have (O)laid the foundation of this house, and his hands will (P)finish it. Then you will know that the Lord of armies has sent me to [c]you. 10 For who has shown contempt for the day of (Q)small things? [d]But these (R)seven will rejoice when they see the [e](S)plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel—they are the (T)eyes of the Lord (U)roaming throughout the earth.”
11 Then I said to him, “What are these (V)two olive trees on the right of the lampstand and on its left?” 12 And I responded the second time and said to him, “What are the two olive [f]branches which are beside the two golden pipes, which empty the golden oil from themselves?” 13 So he answered me, saying, “(W)Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, (X)my lord.” 14 Then he said, “These are the two [g](Y)anointed ones, who are (Z)standing by the (AA)Lord of the whole earth.”

4 L'ange qui parlait avec moi revint, et il me réveilla comme un homme que l'on réveille de son sommeil.
2 Il me dit: Que vois-tu? Je répondis: Je regarde, et voici, il y a un chandelier tout d'or, surmonté d'un vase et portant sept lampes, avec sept conduits pour les lampes qui sont au sommet du chandelier;
3 et il y a près de lui deux oliviers, l'un à la droite du vase, et l'autre à sa gauche.
4 Et reprenant la parole, je dis à l'ange qui parlait avec moi: Que signifient ces choses, mon seigneur?
5 L'ange qui parlait avec moi me répondit: Ne sais-tu pas ce que signifient ces choses? Je dis: Non, mon seigneur.
6 Alors il reprit et me dit: C'est ici la parole que l'Éternel adresse à Zorobabel: Ce n'est ni par la puissance ni par la force, mais c'est par mon esprit, dit l'Éternel des armées.
7 Qui es-tu, grande montagne, devant Zorobabel? Tu seras aplanie. Il posera la pierre principale au milieu des acclamations: Grâce, grâce pour elle!
8 La parole de l'Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:
9 Les mains de Zorobabel ont fondé cette maison, et ses mains l'achèveront; et tu sauras que l'Éternel des armées m'a envoyé vers vous.
10 Car ceux qui méprisaient le jour des faibles commencements se réjouiront en voyant le niveau dans la main de Zorobabel. Ces sept sont les yeux de l'Éternel, qui parcourent toute la terre.
11 Je pris la parole et je lui dis: Que signifient ces deux oliviers, à la droite du chandelier et à sa gauche?
12 Je pris une seconde fois la parole, et je lui dis: Que signifient les deux rameaux d'olivier, qui sont près des deux conduits d'or d'où découle l'or?
13 Il me répondit: Ne sais-tu pas ce qu'ils signifient? Je dis: Non, mon seigneur.
14 Et il dit: Ce sont les deux oints qui se tiennent devant le Seigneur de toute la terre.
