Oo haddana malaggii ila hadlay ayaa i toosiyey, sidii nin hurdo laga soo toosiyey. Oo wuxuu igu yidhi, War maxaad aragtaa? Oo aniguna waxaan idhi, Waxaan arkaa oo u jeedaa laambad wada dahab ah, oo maddiibaddeedana iyaday kor sarantahay, oo toddobadeeda laambadood ee yaryarna way kor yaalliin, oo waxaa jira toddobada tuubbo oo ku socota laambad yar oo kasta oo ku kor taal. Oo agteedana waxaa ku yaal laba geed oo saytuun ah, oo mid wuxuu ku yaal maddiibadda dhankeeda midig, oo kan kalena wuxuu ku yaal maddiibadda dhankeeda bidix. Oo anna waan jawaabay oo la hadlay malaggii ila hadlay oo waxaan ku idhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, waa maxay kuwanu? Markaasaa malaggii ila hadlay jawaabay oo wuxuu igu yidhi, War miyaadan aqoon waxa kuwanu yihiin? Oo anna waxaan ku idhi, Maya, sayidkaygiiyow. Markaasuu jawaabay oo ila hadlay, oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Kanu waa eraygii Rabbigu u soo diray Serubaabel, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Rabbigii ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Itaal kuma aha, xoogna kuma aha, laakiinse waxay ku tahay ruuxayga. Buurtan weynay, kumaad tahay? Serubaabel hortiisa waxaad ku noqon doontaa bannaan. Oo isna wuxuu soo bixin doonaa dhagaxa madaxa ah isagoo dhawaaqaya oo leh, Ammaan ha u ahaato, ammaan ha u ahaato. Oo weliba waxaa ii yimid Eraygii Rabbiga, oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Serubaabel gacmihiisa ayaa dhigay gurigan aasaaskiisa, oo weliba gacmihiisaa dhammayn doona, oo waxaad ogaan doontaa in Rabbiga ciidammadu ii soo kaa diray. 10 Waayo, bal yaa quudhsaday maalinta waxyaalaha yaryar?

The Gold Lampstand and the Two Olive Trees

Then the angel who talked with me returned and woke(A) me up, like someone awakened from sleep.(B) 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. Also there are two olive trees(F) by it, one on the right of the bowl and the other on its left.”

I asked the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?”

He answered, “Do you not know what these are?”

“No, my lord,” I replied.(G)

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.

“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!’”

Then the word of the Lord came to me: “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.”

And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.

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:

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

So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?

Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.

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.

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.

Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

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.
