Zakaria 4
1 Nibalik’ amy zao i anjely nisaontsy amakoy le nitsekafe’e, manahake ty fampivañonañe ‘ndaty miròtse.
And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.
2 Le hoe re amako, Ino o oni’oo? Le hoe ty asako: Mahatrea fitàm-pailo volamena ki’e, reketse ty korobo ambone’e eo, ama’e ty failo fito; fito ty toiô’e, eka fito mb’amy failo fito ambone’e rey;
And said unto me, What see you? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof:
3 naho hatae olive roe ty añ’ila’e, raike ankavana’ i koroboy, le raike ankavia’e.
And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.
4 Nañontaneako i anjely nifanaontsy amakoy, ty hoe: Inoñe o reroañeo, ry talèko?
So I answered and spoke to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?
5 Le nanoiñe ahy i anjely nifanaontsy amakoy, ami’ty hoe: Tsy apota’o hao o retiañeo? Le hoe iraho: Aiy! talèko!
Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Know you not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
6 Le hoe ty navale’ i anjeliy amako: Ty tsara’ Iehovà amy Zerobabele, manao ty hoe: Tsy an-kafatrarañe, tsy an-kaozarañe, fa an-Troko hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy.
Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, says the LORD of hosts.
7 Ia v’iheo, ry haboañe aboo? ie aolo’ i Zerobabele eo ro hinjare tane-mira? le hendese’e boak’ ao ty vato-fampikatohañe, hikoikoike ty hoe, Fañisohañe, fañisohañe.
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 unto it.
8 Nimb’ amako indraike ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
9 Nampipetake o mananta’ ty anjomba toio o fità’ i Zerobabeleo, le o fità’eo ka ro hamonitse aze; vaho ho fohi’o te nañirak’ ahy ama’ areo t’Iehovà’ i Màroy.
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 unto you.
10 Ia ty nanirìka ty andron-draha pilipito’e? Ho isa’ iareo an-kafaleañe o talim-pahity am-pità’ i Zerobabeleo, toe o fito retoañe, o fihaino’ Iehovà manitsike ty tane toio mb’eo mb’eo.
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 back and forth through the whole earth.
11 Le nañontaneako ty hoe: Inoñ’ o hatae olive ankavana o fitàm-pailo naho ankavia’eo?
Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?
12 Tinovoko fañindroe’e, ty hoe: Ino o singan’ olive roe añ’ila’ i toiò volamena roe rey, mañiliñe menake volamena boak’ ama’eo?
And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?
13 Natoi’e ami’ty hoe: Tsy fohi’o hao t’ie inoñe? Le hoe ty natoiko: Aiy! ry taleko.
And he answered me and said, Know you not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
14 Le hoe re tamako: Ie i roe norizañe ami'ty menake rey: ie mijohañe añ’ila’ i Talè’ ty tane toy eo.
Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the LORD of the whole earth.
