Zechariah 4
1 Then the angel who had been talking with me returned, and he called to me as though I had been asleep.
Потом врати се анђео који ми говораше, и пробуди ме као човека који се буди ода сна.
2 He asked me, “What do you see?” I replied, “I see a lampstand [made] completely of gold. There is a small bowl [for olive oil] at the top, and there are seven [small] lamps around the bowl, and a place for a wick on each lamp.
И рече ми: Шта видиш? А ја рекох: Видим, ето, свећњак сав од злата, и горе на њему чаша, и седам жижака његових на њему, и седам левака за седам жижака што су горе на њему,
3 Furthermore, I see two olive trees, one at the right side of the lampstand and one at the left side.”
И две маслине уза њ, једна с десне стране чаши а једна с леве.
4 I asked the angel who was talking with me, “Sir, what are these?”
И проговорих анђелу који говораше са мном, и рекох: Шта је то, господару мој?
5 He replied, “Surely you know [RHQ] what they are?” I replied, “No, I do not know.”
А анђео који говораше са мном одговори и рече ми: Зар не знаш шта је то? И рекох: Не, господару мој.
6 Then he said to me, “This is the message that Yahweh [says that you should give] to Zerubbabel [the governor of Judah: ‘You will do what I want you to do, but it will] not be by your own strength or power. It will be [done] by [the power of] my Spirit, says the Commander of the armies of angels.
А он одговори и рече ми говорећи: То је реч Господња Зоровавељу: не силом ни крепошћу него Духом мојим, вели Господ над војскама.
7 Zerubbabel, you [have many difficult matters to handle. They are like] high mountains [MET]. But they will [become easy to handle, as though] they will become flat land. And you will bring [to the temple] the final stone [to complete the rebuilding of the temple]. When you do that, [all the people] will shout repeatedly, “It is beautiful! May God bless it!”’”
Шта си ти, горо велика, пред Зоровавељем? Равница; и он ће изнети највиши камен, с усклицима: Милост, милост њему.
8 Then Yahweh gave me [another] message.
И дође ми реч Господња говорећи:
9 He said [to me], “Zerubbabel [SYN] laid the first stone in the foundation of the temple, and he will put the last stone in its place. When that happens, the people will know that [it is I, the Commander of the armies of angels, who] have sent you to them.” And he said, “The seven bowls represent the eyes of Yahweh, who looks back and forth at everything [that happens] on the earth.”
Руке Зоровавељеве основаше овај дом, руке ће његове и довршити, и познаћеш да ме је Господ над војскама послао к вама.
10 No one [RHQ] should think that little things that are done at the beginning of a big project are unimportant. [When the temple is almost finished being rebuilt, ] Zerubbabel will use a (plumb line/string with a stone fastened to it) [to see if the walls they are building are straight]; so when the people see that, they will rejoice.”
Јер ко је презрео дан малих ствари? Јер ће се радовати кад види камен мерачки у руци Зоровавељу, оних седам очију Господњих који прелазе сву земљу.
11 Then I asked the angel, “What is [the meaning of] the two olive trees, one on each side of the lampstand?
Тада одговарајући рекох му: Шта су оне две маслине с десне стране свећњаку и с леве?
12 And what [the meaning of] the two olive branches, one alongside each of the gold pipes from which [olive] oil flows to the lamps?”
И опет проговорих и рекох му: Шта су оне две гранчице маслинове, што су међу два левка златна, који точе злато?
13 He replied, “Surely [RHQ] you know what they are?” I replied, “No, sir, [I do not know.]”
И рече ми говорећи: Зар не знаш шта је то? А ја рекох: Не, господару мој.
14 So he said, “They represent the two [men who have been] appointed [MTY] to serve the Lord who [rules] the entire earth.”
Тада рече: То су две маслине које стоје код Господа све земље.
