1And the angel that talked with me came again and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep,
2and said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked and behold a candlestick all [of] gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps upon the candlestick, and seven pipes for the lamps, which [are] upon the top thereof:
3and two olive trees over it, one upon the right hand [side] of the bowl and the other upon the left hand [side] thereof.
4So I answered and spoke to the angel that talked with me, saying, What [is] this, my lord?
5Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Dost thou not know what this is? And I said, No, my lord.
6Then 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, said the LORD of the hosts.
7Who [art] thou, O great mountain before Zerubbabel? [Thou shalt be reduced to] a plain; and he shall bring forth the headstone [thereof with] shoutings, [crying], Grace, grace unto it.
8And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
9The hands of Zerubbabel shall lay the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of the hosts has sent me unto you.
10For who has despised the day of small [beginnings]? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel. Those seven [are] the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.
11Then I spoke and said unto him, What [are] these two olive trees upon the right hand [side] of the candlestick and upon the left hand [side] thereof?
12And I spoke the second time and said unto him, What [are these] two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden [oil] out of themselves?
13And he answered me and said, Dost thou not know what these [are]? And I said, No, my lord.
14Then he said, These two sons of oil [are] those that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.:
