< Zaharija 4 >

1 Anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom vrati se tad i probudi me kao čovjeka koji se oda sna budi.
And the angel who had been speaking with me returned, and he awakened me, like a man who is awakened from his sleep.
2 “Što vidiš?” - upita. Ja odgovorih: “Vidim, evo, svijećnjak, sav od zlata, s posudom za ulje vrh njega; i sedam je žižaka na svijećnjaku, sa sedam lijevaka za sedam žižaka što su na njemu.
And he said to me, “What do you see?” And I said, “I looked, and behold, a candlestick entirely in gold, and its lamp was at its top, and seven oil lamps of it were upon it, and there were seven funnels for the oil lamps that were at its top.
3 Dvije su masline kraj njega, jedna njemu zdesna, druga slijeva.”
And there were two olive trees upon it: one to the right of the lamp, and one to its left.”
4 Obratih se anđelu koji je govorio sa mnom i upitah ga: “Što je to, gospodaru?”
And I answered and spoke to the angel who was speaking with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
5 Anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom odgovori mi: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Ja rekoh: “Ne, gospodaru.”
And the angel who was speaking with me answered, and he said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.”
6 [6a] On mi tad odgovori ovako: [6b]Evo riječi Jahvine Zerubabelu: “Ne silom niti snagom, već duhom mojim!” - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama.
And he answered and spoke to me, saying: This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying: Not by an army, nor by might, but in my spirit, says the Lord of hosts.
7 Što si ti, goro velika? Pred Zreubabelom postaješ ravnica! On će izvući krunišni kamen uz poklike: “Hvala! Hvala za njega!”
What are you, great mountain, in the sight of Zerubbabel? You are among the plains. And he will lead out the primary stone, and he will give equal grace to its grace.
8 Dođe mi potom riječ Jahvina:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
9 Zerubabelove su ruke ovaj Dom utemeljile, njegove će ga ruke završiti. I vi ćete znati da me k vama poslao Jahve nad Vojskama.
The hand of Zerubbabel has founded this house, and his hands will complete it. And you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you.
10 [10a] Jer, tko je prezreo dan skromnih početaka? Radovat će se kad vide olovni visak u ruci Zerubabelovoj. [10b] “Ovih sedam oči su Jahvine što strijeljaju po svoj zemlji.”
For who has despised the little days? And they will rejoice and will see the silver and lead stone in the hand of Zerubbabel. These are the seven eyes of the Lord, which roam quickly through all the earth.
11 Tad progovorih i zapitah ga: “Što su one dvije masline desno i lijevo od svijećnjaka?”
And I responded and said to him, “What are these two olive trees to the right of the candlestick, and to its left?”
12 Progovorih opet i upitah ga: “Što su one dvije maslinove grančice koje kroz dvije zlatne cijevi dolijevaju ulje?”
And I responded a second time and said to him, “What are the two olive branches, which are next to the two golden ridges, in which are the pouring spouts of gold?”
13 On mi odgovori: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Odvratih: “Ne, gospodaru!”
And he spoke to me, saying, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.”
14 On reče: “To su dva Pomazanika koji stoje pred Gospodarem sve zemlje.”
And he said, “These are the two sons of oil, who attend before the Sovereign of all the earth.”
