2. And he said to me: What seest thou? And I said: I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, and its lamp upon the top of it: and the seven lights thereof upon it: and seven funnels for the lights that were upon the top thereof.
3. And two olive trees over it: one upon the right side of the lamp, and the other upon the left side thereof.
4. And I answered, and said to the angel that spoke in me, saying: What are these things, my lord?
5. And the angel that spoke in me answered, and said to me: Knowest thou not what these things are? And I said: No, my lord.
6. And he answered, and spoke to me, saying: This is the word of the Lord to Zorobabel, saying: Not with an army, nor by might, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.
7. Who art thou, O great mountain, before Zorobabel? thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring out the chief stone, and shall give equal grace to the grace thereof.
8. And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
9. The hands of Zorobabel have laid the foundations of this house, and his hands shall finish it: and you shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me to you.
