Zakharia 4
1 Malaikat yang telah bicara kepadaku itu datang lagi dan membangunkan aku seperti membangunkan orang tidur.
And the angel who had been speaking with me returned, and he awakened me, like a man who is awakened from his sleep.
2 "Apa yang kaulihat?" tanyanya. "Sebuah kaki lampu dari emas," jawabku. "Pada ujung atasnya ada tempat minyaknya, dan di sekelilingnya ada tujuh lampu, yang masing-masing mempunyai tujuh tempat sumbu.
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 Di sebelah kiri dan kanan kaki lampu itu ada dua pohon zaitun."
And there were two olive trees upon it: one to the right of the lamp, and one to its left.”
4 Kemudian aku bertanya kepada malaikat itu, "Apa yang dilambangkan oleh benda-benda itu, Tuan?"
And I answered and spoke to the angel who was speaking with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
5 "Tidak tahukah engkau?" tanyanya kepadaku. "Tidak Tuan," jawabku.
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 Malaikat itu menyuruh aku menyampaikan kepada Zerubabel pesan TUHAN ini, "Bukan dengan kekuatan militer dan bukan pula dengan kekuatanmu sendiri engkau akan berhasil, melainkan dengan roh-Ku.
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 Rintangan sebesar gunung pun akan tersingkir dari depanmu. Engkau akan membangun kembali Rumah-Ku, dan pada saat engkau meletakkan batu yang utama di tempatnya, orang-orang akan berseru, 'Alangkah indahnya!'"
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 Lalu datang lagi pesan yang lain dari TUHAN.
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
9 Kata-Nya, "Zerubabel telah meletakkan fondasi Rumah-Ku, dan ia akan menyelesaikan seluruh bangunan itu. Jika itu terjadi, umat-Ku akan tahu bahwa Akulah yang telah mengutus engkau Zakharia kepada mereka.
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 Ada yang meremehkan peristiwa ini. Tetapi mereka akan melihat Zerubabel melanjutkan pembangunan Rumah-Ku, dan mereka akan bergembira." Malaikat itu berkata kepadaku, "Ketujuh lampu itu adalah ketujuh mata TUHAN yang mengawasi seluruh muka bumi."
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 Kemudian aku bertanya lagi kepadanya, "Apa arti kedua batang pohon zaitun di kanan kiri kaki lampu itu?
And I responded and said to him, “What are these two olive trees to the right of the candlestick, and to its left?”
12 Apa pula arti kedua cabang zaitun di samping kedua pipa emas yang menyalurkan minyak zaitun itu?"
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 Sahutnya kepadaku, "Tidak tahukah engkau?" "Tidak Tuan," jawabku.
And he spoke to me, saying, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.”
14 Ia pun berkata, "Itu adalah dua orang yang telah dipilih oleh TUHAN alam semesta dan ditunjuk untuk melayani Dia."
And he said, “These are the two sons of oil, who attend before the Sovereign of all the earth.”
