Zaharija 4

1 Anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom vrati se tad i probudi me kao čovjeka koji se oda sna budi.

Then the angel who was talking with me turned and roused me like a man roused 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.

He said to me, “What do you see?” I said, “I see a lampstand made entirely of gold, with a bowl on its top. It has seven lamps on it and seven lamp wicks at the top of each lamp.

3 Dvije su masline kraj njega, jedna njemu zdesna, druga slijeva.”

Two olive trees are by it, one on the right side of the bowl and the other on the left side.”

4 Obratih se anđelu koji je govorio sa mnom i upitah ga: “Što je to, gospodaru?”

So I spoke again to the angel who was talking with me. I said, “What do these things mean, my master?”

5 Anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom odgovori mi: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Ja rekoh: “Ne, gospodaru.”

The angel who was talking with me answered and said to me, “Do you not know what these things mean?” I said, “No, my master.”

6 [6a] On mi tad odgovori ovako: [6b]Evo riječi Jahvine Zerubabelu: “Ne silom niti snagom, već duhom mojim!” - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama.

So he said to me, “This is the word of Yahweh to Zerubbabel: Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit, says Yahweh 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? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain, and he will bring out the top stone to shouts of 'Grace! Grace to it!'”

8 Dođe mi potom riječ Jahvina:

The word of Yahweh 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 and his hands will bring it to completion.” Then you will know that Yahweh 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.”

Who has despised the day of small things? These people will rejoice and will see the plumb stone in the hand of Zerubbabel. (These seven lamps are the eyes of Yahweh that roam over the whole earth.)

11 Tad progovorih i zapitah ga: “Što su one dvije masline desno i lijevo od svijećnjaka?”

Then I asked the angel, “What are these two olive trees that stand on the left and the right of the lampstand?”

12 Progovorih opet i upitah ga: “Što su one dvije maslinove grančice koje kroz dvije zlatne cijevi dolijevaju ulje?”

Once more I asked him, “What are these two olive branches beside the two gold pipes that have golden oil pouring out of them?”

13 On mi odgovori: “Zar ne znaš što je to?” Odvratih: “Ne, gospodaru!”

Then he said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” I said, “No, my master.”

14 On reče: “To su dva Pomazanika koji stoje pred Gospodarem sve zemlje.”

So he said, “These are the sons of fresh olive oil who stand before the Lord of all the earth.”
