001 And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep,
002 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:
003 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.
004 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?
005 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
006 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.
007 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.
008 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
009 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.
010 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.
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?
012 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?
013 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
014 Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
