Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord (4:5) Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This [is] the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts (4:6) Who [art] thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel [thou shalt become] a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone [thereof with] shoutings, [crying], Grace, grace unto it (4:7) Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, (4:8) The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you (4:9) For who hath 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 to and fro through the whole earth (4:10) 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? (4:11) 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? (4:12) And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these [be]? And I said, No, my lord (4:13) Then said he, These [are] the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.
(4:14)
