1 And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep, 2 And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof: 3 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof. 4 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord? 5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord. 6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. 7 Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it. 8 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you. 10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.
11 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? 12 And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves? 13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord. 14 Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
1 那与我说话的天使回来唤醒我, 我好像人在睡眠中被人唤醒一样。
2 他对我说: "你看见了什么?"我回答: "我看见一个金灯台, 整个是金的, 顶上有一个盆子, 并有七盏灯; 顶上的灯有七个灯嘴。
3 盆子旁边有两棵橄榄树, 一棵在右边, 一棵在左边。"
4 我问那与我说话的天使, 说: "我主啊, 这些是什么?"
5 那与我说话的天使回答我说: "你不知道这些是什么意思吗?"我说: "我主啊, 我不知道。"
6 他对我说: "这是耶和华对所罗巴伯所说的话: ‘不是倚靠权势, 不是倚靠能力, 而是倚靠我的灵。’这是万军之耶和华说的。
7 大山啊! 你算得什么?你在所罗巴伯面前必夷为平地! 他必安放那块平顶的石头, 必有欢呼的声音说: ‘愿恩惠、恩惠归与这殿("这殿"原文作"她")。’"
8 耶和华的话又临到我说:
9 "所罗巴伯的手奠立了这殿的根基, 他的手也必完成这工; 这样, 你就知道万军之耶和华差遣了我到你们这里来。
10 谁藐视这日子, 以为所作的是小事呢?他们看见所罗巴伯手里拿着测锤, 就必欢喜。"是耶和华的这七眼, 遍察全地。
11 我又再问那天使: "在这灯台左右的两棵橄榄树是什么意思?"
12 我又问他: "在两根流出金色油的金管子旁边的两根橄榄树枝, 究竟是什么意思?"
13 他回答我: "你不知道这些是什么意思吗?"我说: "我主啊, 我不知道。"
14 他说: "这是两位受膏者("受膏者"或译: "供应新油的人"), 是服事全地之主的。"
