Zechariah 4:7
Compare all
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. 
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!” ’ ”  
8 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
9 “The hands of Zerubbabel
aHave laid the foundation of this1 temple;
His hands bshall also finish it.
Then cyou will know
That the dLord of hosts has sent Me to you. 
10 For who has despised the1 day of asmall things?
For these seven rejoice to see
The plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel.
bThey are the eyes of the Lord,
Which scan to and fro throughout the whole earth.”  
11 Then I answered and said to him, “What are these atwo olive trees—at the right of the lampstand and at its left?”

Zechariah 4:7

O great mountain - All opposers put together. Become a plain - Thou shalt sink into nothing. The head stone - Shall assist at the laying of the finishing stone, as he assisted when the foundation stone was laid. Grace, grace - Wishing all prosperity, and a long continuance of it, to the temple and those that are to worship God therein. As the free favour of God began, and finished, may the same ever dwell in it and replenish it.
