< 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 that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of 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 said to me, What see you? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl on the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are on the top thereof:
3 Dvije su masline kraj njega, jedna njemu zdesna, druga slijeva.”
And two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl, and the other on the left side thereof.
4 Obratih se anđelu koji je govorio sa mnom i upitah ga: “Što je to, gospodaru?”
So I answered and spoke to the angel that talked 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.”
Then the angel that talked with me answered and said to me, Know you not what these be? 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.
Then he answered and spoke to me, saying, This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by 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!”
Who are you, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace to it.
8 Dođe mi potom riječ Jahvina:
Moreover 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 hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and you shall 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 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 Tad progovorih i zapitah ga: “Što su one dvije masline desno i lijevo od svijećnjaka?”
Then answered I, and said to him, What are these two olive trees on the right side of the candlestick and on the left side thereof?
12 Progovorih opet i upitah ga: “Što su one dvije maslinove grančice koje kroz dvije zlatne cijevi dolijevaju ulje?”
And I answered again, and said to him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?
13 On mi odgovori: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Odvratih: “Ne, gospodaru!”
And he answered me and said, Know you not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
14 On reče: “To su dva Pomazanika koji stoje pred Gospodarem sve zemlje.”
Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the LORD of the whole earth.
