Vision of the Lampstand and Olive Trees
1 Now athe angel who talked with me came back and wakened me, bas a man who is wakened out of his sleep.
2 And he said to me, “What do you see?” So I said, “I am looking, and there is aa lampstand of solid gold with a bowl on top of it, band on the stand seven lamps with seven pipes to the seven lamps.
3 aTwo olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left.”
4 So I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
5 Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.”
6 So he answered and said to me:
“This is the word of the Lord to aZerubbabel:
b‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’
Says the Lord of hosts.
“This is the word of the Lord to aZerubbabel:
b‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’
Says the Lord of hosts.
7 ‘Who are you, aO great mountain?
Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain!
And he shall bring forth bthe capstone
cWith shouts of “Grace, grace to it!” ’ ”
Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain!
And he shall bring forth bthe capstone
cWith shouts of “Grace, grace to it!” ’ ”
