3 And beside it are two olive trees, one on the right of the bowl and one to its left.”
4 Then I said to the angel who spoke with me, “What are these things, my lord?”
5 And the angel who spoke with me replied, “Do you not know what these things are?” I said, “No, my lord.”
6 Then he said to me: “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: Not by might, and not by power, but by my spirit, says the Lord of hosts.
7 Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you become a plain. He will bring forth the first stone amid shouts of ‘Favor, favor be upon it!’”
8 Then the word of the Lord came to me:
9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundations of this house, and his hands will finish it. Thus you shall know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you.
