Livre de Zacharie 4

BIBLES DES PEUPLES	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 L’ange qui me parlait revint; il me réveilla comme un homme que l’on tire de son sommeil	1 And the angel that spoke in me came again: and he waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.
2 et me demanda: “Que vois-tu?” Je répondis: “Je vois un chandelier tout en or, avec à son sommet un réservoir d’huile et sept lampes à bec.”	2 And he said to me: What seest thou? And I said: I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, and its lamp upon the top of it: and the seven lights thereof upon it: and seven funnels for the lights that were upon the top thereof.
3 Deux oliviers se trouvaient à côté, l’un à droite de la réserve d’huile et l’autre à sa gauche.	3 And two olive trees over it: one upon the right side of the lamp, and the other upon the left side thereof.
4 Alors je dis à l’ange qui parlait avec moi: “Qu’est-ce que cela signifie?”	4 And I answered, and said to the angel that spoke in me, saying: What are these things, my lord?
5 Il me répond: “Tu ne le sais donc pas?” Je lui dis: “Non, mon Seigneur.”	5 And the angel that spoke in me answered, and said to me: Knowest thou not what these things are? And I said: No, my lord.
6 Il m’explique: 10b “Ces sept lampes sont les yeux de Yahvé qui observent toute la terre.”	6 And he answered, and spoke to me, saying: This is the word of the Lord to Zorobabel, saying: Not with an army, nor by might, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.
7 4:11 Je demande de nouveau: “Que représentent ces deux oliviers à droite et à gauche du chandelier?”	7 Who art thou, O great mountain, before Zorobabel? thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring out the chief stone, and shall give equal grace to the grace thereof.
8 4:12 No Text	8 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
9 4:13 Il me répond: “Tu ne le sais pas?” Je lui dis: “Non, mon Seigneur.”	9 The hands of Zorobabel have laid the foundations of this house, and his hands shall finish it: and you shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me to you.
10 4:14 Il m’explique: “Ce sont les deux hommes consacrés qui se tiennent devant le Seigneur de toute la terre.” 6b Voici une parole de Yahvé pour Zorobabel: “Ni par l’argent, ni par la force, mais par mon Esprit.	10 For who hath despised little days? and they shall rejoice, and shall see the tin plummet in the hand of Zorobabel. These are the seven eyes of the Lord, that run to and fro through the whole earth.
11 4:7 “Que la montagne est haute! Mais devant Zorobabel elle se changera en plaine. C’est lui qui portera la dernière pierre aux cris de ‘Bravo, bravo pour elle!’ ”	11 And I answered, and said to him: What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick, and upon the left side thereof?
12 4:8 Une parole de Yahvé me fut alors adressée:	12 And I answered again, and said to him: What are the two olive branches, that are by the two golden beaks, in which are the funnels of gold?
13 4:9 “Les mains de Zorobabel ont posé les fondations de ce Temple; ses mains aussi l’achèveront.	13 And he spoke to me, saying: Knowest thou not what these are? And I said: No, my lord.
14 4:10 Cela vous a peut-être semblé bien peu de chose le jour où l’on posait la première pierre, mais vous aurez la joie de voir la pierre de couronnement dans les mains de Zorobabel.”	14 And he said: These are two sons of oil who stand before the Lord of the whole earth.
