Vision of the Lampstand and Olive Trees
1 AND the Angel returned that spake in me: & he raised me up, as a man that is raised out of his sleep.📜💬📚
2 And he said to me: What seest thou? And I said: I saw, & lo a candlestick all of gold, & the lamp thereof upon the head of it: and the seven lights thereof upon it: and seven funnels for the lights, that were upon the head thereof.📜💬📚
3 And two olive-trees upon it: one on the right hand of the lamp, and one on the left hand thereof.📜💬📚
4 And I answered, and I said to the Angel that spake in me, saying: What are these things, my Lord?📜💬📚
5 And the Angel that spake in me answered, and said to me: Why, knowest thou not what these things are? And I said: No my Lord.📜💬📚
6 And he answered, & said to me, saying: This is the word of our Lord to Zorobabel, saying: Not in an host, nor in strength: but in my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.📜💬📚
7 Who art thou o great mountain before Zorobabel? Into a plain: & he will bring forth the principal stone, and will make grace equal to the grace thereof.📜💬📚
8 And the word of our Lord was made to me, saying:📜💬📚
9 The hands of Zorobabel have founded this house, and his hands shall perfit it: and you shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me to you.📜💬📚
10 For who hath despised little days? And they shall rejoice, & shall see the stone of tin in the hand of Zorobabel. These are the seven eyes of our Lord, that run through out the whole earth.📜💬📚
11 And I answered, and said to him: What are these two olive-trees on the right hand of the candlestick, and on the left hand thereof?📜💬📚
12 And I answered the second time, and said to him: What are the two branches of olive-trees, that are beside the two beaks of gold, in which are the funnels of gold?📜💬📚
13 And he said to me, saying: Why, knowest thou not what these are? And I said: No, my Lord.📜💬📚
14 And he said: These are two sons of oil which assist the dominatour of the whole earth.📜💬📚
