1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1Then the angel who had been speaking with me returned and woke me up as if I had been asleep.
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2Then he asked me, "What do you see?" So I said, "I have been watching—and look!—there is a menorah made completely of gold with a bowl on top of it. And there are seven lights on it, along with seven feeder channels to the lamps, which are also on top of it.
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3Two olive trees are near it, one on the right side of the bowl and one on the left."
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4Then I asked the angel who had been speaking with me, "Sir, what are these?"
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5The angel who had been speaking with me answered by asking, "You don't know what these mean, do you?" So I responded, "No, sir."
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6Then he replied to me, "This is this message from the LORD to Zerubbabel: 'Not by valor nor by strength, but only by my Spirit,' says the LORD of the Heavenly Armies.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7Who are you, great mountain? You will become a plain in Zerubbabel's presence, and he will position the capstone, exulting over it, "How beautiful! How beautiful!"'"
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8Then this message from the LORD came to me again:
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9"Zerubbabel's hands have laid the foundation of this Temple, and his hands will finish it, so that you will know that the LORD of the Heavenly Armies has sent me to all of you.
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10For who has despised the time of insignificant things? They will rejoice to see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. These seven lights represent the eyes of the LORD, which are looking throughout all of the earth."
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11Then I asked the angel, "What are these two olive trees, one on the right of the menorah and one on the left?"
12[an error occurred while processing this directive]12I also asked him a second question: "What are these two olive branches on either side of the two golden feeder channels that carry the golden oil to the seven lights?"
13[an error occurred while processing this directive]13The angel replied, "You don't know what these are, do you?" I responded to him, "No, sir."
14[an error occurred while processing this directive]14He said, "These are the two anointed ones, who stand continuously beside the Lord of the whole earth."
