LXX
ΚΑΙ ἐπέστρεψεν ὁ ἄγγελος ὁ λαλῶν ἐν ἐμοὶ καὶ ἐξήγειρέ με ὃν τρόπον ὅταν ἐξεγερθῇ ἄνθρωπος ἐξ ὕπνου αὐτοῦ
BSB
BSB:
Then the angel who was speaking with me returned and woke me, as a man is awakened from his sleep.
2
LXX
καὶ εἶπε πρός με· τί σὺ βλέπεις; καὶ εἶπα· ἑώρακα καὶ ἰδοὺ λυχνία χρυσῆ ὅλη, καὶ τὸ λαμπάδιον ἐπάνω αὐτῆς, καὶ ἑπτὰ λύχνοι ἐπάνω αὐτῆς, καὶ ἑπτὰ ἐπαρυστρίδες τοῖς λύχνοις τοῖς ἐπάνω αὐτῆς·
BSB
BSB:
“What do you see?” he asked. “I see a solid gold lampstand,” I replied, “with a bowl at the top and seven lamps on it, with seven spouts to the lamps.
3
LXX
καὶ δύο ἐλαῖαι ἐπάνω αὐτῆς, μία ἐκ δεξιῶν τοῦ λαμπαδίου αὐτῆς καὶ μία ἐξ εὐωνύμων.
BSB
BSB:
There are also two olive trees beside it, one on the right side of the bowl and the other on its left.”
4
LXX
καὶ ἐπηρώτησα καὶ εἶπα πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον τὸν λαλοῦντα ἐν ἐμοὶ λέγων· τί ἐστι ταῦτα, κύριε;
BSB
BSB:
“What are these, my lord?” I asked the angel who was speaking with me.
5
LXX
καὶ ἀπεκρίθη ὁ ἄγγελος ὁ λαλῶν ἐν ἐμοὶ καὶ εἶπε πρός με λέγων· οὐ γινώσκεις τί ἐστι ταῦτα; καὶ εἶπα· οὐχί, κύριε.
BSB
BSB:
“Do you not know what they are?” replied the angel. “No, my lord,” I answered.
6
LXX
καὶ ἀπεκρίθη καὶ εἶπε πρός με λέγων· οὗτος ὁ λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς Ζοροβάβελ λέγων· οὐκ ἐν δυνάμει μεγάλῃ οὐδὲ ἐν ἰσχύϊ, ἀλλ᾿ ἢ ἐν πνεύματί μου, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ.
BSB
BSB:
So he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the LORD of Hosts.
7
LXX
τίς εἶ σύ, τό ὄρος τὸ μέγα, τὸ πρὸ προσώπου Ζαροβάβελ τοῦ κατορθῶσαι; καὶ ἐξοίσω τὸν λίθον τῆς κληρονομίας ἰσότητα χάριτος χάριτα αὐτῆς.
BSB
BSB:
What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain. Then he will bring forth the capstone accompanied by shouts of ‘Grace, grace to it!’”
8
LXX
καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρός με λέγων·
BSB
BSB:
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
9
LXX
αἱ χεῖρες Ζοροβάβελ ἐθεμελίωσαν τὸν οἶκον τοῦτον, καὶ αἱ χεῖρες αὐτοῦ ἐπιτελέσουσιν αὐτόν, καὶ ἐπιγνώσῃ, διότι Κύριος παντοκράτωρ ἐξαπέσταλκέ με πρός σε.
BSB
BSB:
“The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house, and his hands will complete it. Then you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent me to you.
10
LXX
διότι τίς ἐξουδένωσεν εἰς ἡμέρας μικράς; καὶ χαροῦνται καὶ ὄψονται τὸν λίθον τὸν κασσιτέρινον ἐν χειρὶ Ζοροβάβελ. ἑπτὰ οὗτοι ὀφθαλμοὶ Κυρίου εἰσὶν οἱ ἐπιβλέποντες ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν.
BSB
BSB:
For who has despised the day of small things? But these seven eyes of the LORD, which scan the whole earth, will rejoice when they see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel.”
11
LXX
καὶ ἀπεκρίθην καὶ εἶπα πρὸς αὐτόν· τί αἱ δύο ἐλαῖαι αὗται, αἱ ἐκ δεξιῶν τῆς λυχνίας καὶ ἐξ εὐωνύμων;
BSB
BSB:
Then I asked the angel, “What are the two olive trees on the right and left of the lampstand?”
12
LXX
καὶ ἐπηρώτησα ἐκ δευτέρου καὶ εἶπα πρὸς αὐτόν· τί οἱ δύο κλάδοι τῶν ἐλαιῶν οἱ ἐν ταῖς χερσὶ τῶν δύο μυξωτήρων τῶν χρυσῶν τῶν ἐπιχεόντων καὶ ἐπαναγόντων τὰς ἐπαρυστρίδας τὰς χρυσᾶς;
BSB
BSB:
And I questioned him further, “What are the two olive branches beside the two gold pipes from which the golden oil pours?”
13
LXX
καὶ εἶπε πρός με· οὐκ οἶδας τί ἐστι ταῦτα; καὶ εἶπα οὐχί, κύριε.
BSB
BSB:
“Do you not know what these are?” he inquired. “No, my lord,” I replied.
14
LXX
καὶ εἶπεν· οὗτοι οἱ δύο υἱοὶ τῆς πιότητος παρεστήκασι Κυρίῳ πάσης τῆς γῆς.
BSB
BSB:
So he said, “These are the two anointed ones who are standing beside the Lord of all the earth.”
