Zechariah 4:6-10

A Vision of a Golden Lampstand

6 Then he said to me, "This is the word of the Lord to l Zerubbabel: m Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of hosts. 7 Who are you, n O great mountain? Before l Zerubbabel o you shall become a plain. And he shall bring forward p the top stone amid shouts of 'Grace, grace to it!'"

8 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 9 q "The hands of l Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also r complete it. s Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you.

10 t For whoever has despised the day of small things shall rejoice, and shall see u the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. v "These seven v are the eyes of the Lord, w which range through the whole earth."
