And the angel that spoke with me returned, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep

04:002

And he said unto me: 'What seest thou?' And I said: 'I have seen, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps thereon; there are seven pipes, yea, seven, to the lamps, which are upon the top thereof

04:003

and two olive-trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.

04:004

And I answered and spoke to the angel that spoke with me, saying: 'What are these, my lord?

04:005

Then the angel that spoke with me answered and said unto me: 'Knowest thou not what these are?' And I said: 'No, my lord.

04:006

Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying: 'This is the word of HaShem unto Zerubbabel, saying: Not by might, nor by power, but by My spirit, saith HaShem of hosts

04:007

04:008

Moreover the word of HaShem came unto me, saying

04:009

'The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that HaShem of hosts hath sent me unto you

04:010

For who hath despised the day of small things? even they shall see with joy the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel, even these seven, which are the eyes of HaShem, that run to and fro through the whole earth.

04:011

Then answered I, and said unto him: 'What are these two olive-trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?

04:012

And I answered the second time, and said unto him: 'What are these two olive branches, which are beside the two golden spouts, that empty the golden oil out of themselves?

04:013

And he answered me and said: 'Knowest thou not what these are?' And I said: 'No, my lord.

04:014

Then said he: 'These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the L-rd of the whole earth.
