Zechariah 4

1And the angel that talked with me returned, and awakened me, as when a man is awakened out of his sleep. 2And he said to me, What do you see? And I said, I have seen, and behold a lampstand of solid gold, with a bowl upon it, and seven lamps upon it, and seven oil funnels to the lamps upon it. 3Two olive trees are above it, one on the right of the bowl, and one on the left. 4And I inquired, and spoke to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these things, my lord? 5And the angel that talked with me answered, and spoke to me, saying, Don't you know what these things are? And I said, No, my lord. 6And he answered and spoke to me, saying, This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying, not by mighty power, nor by strength, but by My Spirit, says the Lord Almighty. 7Who are you, O great mountain before Zerubbabel, that you should prosper? Whereas I will bring out the stone of the inheritance, its grace equal to My grace. 8And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 9The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house, and his hands shall finish it; and you shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent Me to you. 10For who has despised the small days? Surely they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet of tin in the hand of Zerubbabel: these are the seven eyes that look upon all the earth. 11And I answered, and said to him, What are these two olive trees, which are on the right and left hand of the lampstand? 12And I asked the second time, and said to him, What are the two branches of the olive trees that are by the side of the two golden pipes that pour into and communicate with the golden oil funnels? 13And he said to me, Don't you know what these are? And I said, No, my lord. 14And he said, These are the two anointed ones that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
