KING JAMES BIBLENOVA VULGATA
1 And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep,1 Et reversus est angelus, qui loquebatur in me, et excitavit me quasivirum, qui excitatur de somno suo.
2 And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof: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 two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.3 Et duae olivae super illud, una a dextris ampullae et una asinistris eius”.
4 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?4 Et respondi et aio ad angelum, qui loquebatur in me, dicens: “Quid sunthaec, domine mi?”.
5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.5 Et respondit angelus, qui loquebatur in me, et dixit adme: “Numquid nescis quid sunt haec?”. Et dixi: “Non, domine mi”.
6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith 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 Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.7 Quis tu, mons magne, coram Zorobabel? Eris in planum. Et educetlapidem primarium inter clamores: Quam venustus!
8 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,8 Et factum est verbum Dominiad me dicens:
9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you.9 Manus Zorobabel fundaverunt domum istam et manus eius perficienteam, et scietis quia Dominus exercituum misit me ad vos.
10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through 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 Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?11 Et respondi et dixi ad eum: “Quid sunt duae olivae istae ad dexteramcandelabri et ad sinistram eius?”.
12 And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?12 Et respondi secundo et dixi ad eum: “Quidsunt duo rami olivarum, qui duabus fistulis aureis effundunt ex se aurum?”.
13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.13 Et ait ad me dicens: “Numquid nescis quid sunt haec?”. Et dixi: “Non,domine mi”.
14 Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the LORD of the whole earth.14 Et dixit: “Isti sunt duo filii olei, qui assistunt Dominatoriuniversae terrae”.
