NEW AMERICAN BIBLENOVA VULGATA
1 Then the angel who spoke with me returned and awakened me, like a man awakened from his sleep.1 Et reversus est angelus, qui loquebatur in me, et excitavit me quasivirum, qui excitatur de somno suo.
2 "What do you see?" he asked me. "I see a lampstand all of gold, with a bowl at the top," I replied; "on it are seven lamps with their tubes,2 Et dixit ad me: “Quid tu vides?”. Etdixi: “Vidi: et ecce candelabrum aureum totum, et ampulla super caput ipsius,et septem lucernae eius super illud, et septena infusoria lucernis, quae erantsuper caput eius.
3 and beside it are two olive trees, one on the right and the other on the left."3 Et duae olivae super illud, una a dextris ampullae et una asinistris eius”.
4 Then I said to the angel who spoke with me, "What are these things, my lord?"4 Et respondi et aio ad angelum, qui loquebatur in me, dicens: “Quid sunthaec, domine mi?”.
5 And the angel who spoke with me replied, "Do you not know what these things are?" "No, my lord," I answered.5 Et respondit angelus, qui loquebatur in me, et dixit adme: “Numquid nescis quid sunt haec?”. Et dixi: “Non, domine mi”.
6 Then he said to me, "This is the LORD'S message to Zerubbabel: Not by an army, nor by might, but by my spirit, says the LORD of hosts.6 Et respondit et ait ad me dicens: “Hoc est verbum Domini ad Zorobabeldicens: Non in exercitu nec in robore sed in spiritu meo, dicit Dominusexercituum.
7 What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you are but a plain. He shall bring out the capstone amid exclamations of 'Hail, Hail' to it."7 Quis tu, mons magne, coram Zorobabel? Eris in planum. Et educetlapidem primarium inter clamores: Quam venustus!
8 This word of the LORD then came to me:8 Et factum est verbum Dominiad me dicens:
9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundations of this house, and his hands shall finish it; then you shall know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you.9 Manus Zorobabel fundaverunt domum istam et manus eius perficienteam, et scietis quia Dominus exercituum misit me ad vos.
10 For even they who were scornful on that day of small beginnings shall rejoice to see the select stone in the hands of Zerubbabel. These seven facets are the eyes of the LORD that range over the whole earth.10 Quis enim despexitdiem initiorum parvorum? Et laetabuntur et videbunt lapidem stanneum in manuZorobabel. Septem illae oculi sunt Domini, qui discurrunt in universa terra”.
11 I then asked him, "What are these two olive trees at each side of the lampstand?"11 Et respondi et dixi ad eum: “Quid sunt duae olivae istae ad dexteramcandelabri et ad sinistram eius?”.
12 And again I asked, "What are the two olive tufts which freely pour out fresh oil through the two golden channels?"12 Et respondi secundo et dixi ad eum: “Quidsunt duo rami olivarum, qui duabus fistulis aureis effundunt ex se aurum?”.
13 "Do you not know what these are?" he said to me. "No, my lord," I answered him.13 Et ait ad me dicens: “Numquid nescis quid sunt haec?”. Et dixi: “Non,domine mi”.
14 He said, "These are the two anointed who stand by the LORD of the whole earth."14 Et dixit: “Isti sunt duo filii olei, qui assistunt Dominatoriuniversae terrae”.
