Zechariah 4

1 The angel who talked with me came again, and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep.

And the aungel turnede ayen, that spak in me, and reiside me, as a man that is reisid of his sleep.

2 He said to me, "What do you see?" I said, "I have seen, and look, a menorah all of gold, with its bowl on the top of it, and its seven lamps thereon; there are seven pipes to each of the lamps, which are on the top of it;

And he seide to me, What seest thou? And Y seide, Y saiy, and lo! a candilstike al of gold, and the laumpe therof on the heed therof, and seuene lanternes therof on it, and seuene vessels for to holde oyle to the lanternes, that weren on the heed therof.

3 and two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl, and the other on the left side of it."

And twei olyues there onne, oon of the riythalf `of the laumpe, and `an other on the left half therof.

4 I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, "What are these, my lord?"

And Y answeride, and seide to the aungel that spak in me, and Y seide, What ben these thingis, my lord?

5 Then the angel who talked with me answered me, "Do you not know what these are?" I said, "No, my lord."

And the aungel that spak in me, answeride, and seide to me, Whether thou woist not what ben these thingis? And Y seide, No, my lord.

6 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 Ruach,' says the LORD of hosts.

And he answeride, and seide to me, and spak, This is the word of the Lord, seiynge to Sorobabel, Not in oost, nether in strengthe, but in my spirit, seith the Lord of oostis.

7 Who are you, great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you are a plain; and he will bring out the capstone with shouts of 'Grace, grace, to it.'"

Who art thou, greet hil, bifore Sorobabel in to pleyn? and he schal lede out the firste stoon, and schal make euene grace to grace therof.

8 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

And the word of the Lord was maad to me,

9 "The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house. His hands shall also finish it; and you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you.

and seide, The hondis of Sorobabel foundiden this hous, and the hondis of hym schulen perfourme it; and ye schulen wite, that the Lord of oostis sente me to you.

10 Indeed, who despises the day of small things? For these seven shall rejoice, and shall see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. These are the eyes of the LORD, which run back and forth through the whole earth."

Who forsothe dispiside litle daies? and thei schulen be glad, and schulen se a stoon of tyn in the hond of Sorobabel. These ben seuene iyen of the Lord, that rennen aboute in to al erthe.

11 Then I asked him, "What are these two olive trees on the right side of the menorah and on the left side of it?"

And Y answeride, and seide to hym, What ben these tweyne olyues on the riythalf of the candilstike, and at the lift-half therof?

12 I asked him the second time, "What are these two olive branches, which are beside the two golden spouts, that pour the golden oil out of themselves?"

And Y answeryde the secounde tyme, and seide to hym, What ben the tweyne eeris, ether ripe fruyt, of olyues, that ben bisidis the twei bilis of gold, in whiche ben oile vesselis of gold?

13 He answered me, "Do you not know what these are?" I said, "No, my lord."

And he seide to me, and spak, Whether thou woost not what ben these thingis?

14 Then he said, "These are the two anointed ones who stand by the Lord of the whole earth."

And Y seide, No, my lord. And he seide, These ben twei sones of oile of schynyng, whiche stonden nyy to the lordli gouernour of al erthe.
