I said, "I see, and behold, h a lampstand all of gold, with a bowl on the top of it, and i seven lamps on it, with seven lips on each of the lamps that are on the top of it. 3 And there are j two olive trees by it, one on the right of the bowl and the other on its left." 4 And I said to f the angel who talked with me, "What are these, my lord?" 5 Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, k "Do you not know what these are?" I said, "No, my lord." 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.
