BES Bible in Simple Spanish (2026)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 El ángel que hablaba conmigo volvió y me despertó, como se despierta a alguien que duerme.
1 The angel who talked with me came again and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep.
2 Me preguntó: «¿Qué ves?». Respondí: «Veo un candelabro hecho enteramente de oro. Tiene un recipiente en la parte superior y siete lámparas, con siete tubos para cada una de las lámparas de arriba.
2 He said to me, “What do you see?” I said, “I have seen, and behold, a lamp stand all of gold, with its bowl on the top of it, and its seven lamps on it; there are seven pipes to each of the lamps which are on the top of it;
3 A su lado hay dos olivos: uno a la derecha del recipiente y otro a la izquierda».
3 and two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl, and the other on the left side of it.”
4 Le pregunté al ángel que hablaba conmigo: «Mi señor, ¿qué son estas cosas?».
4 I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
5 El ángel respondió: «¿No sabes qué son?». Le dije: «No, mi señor».
5 Then the angel who talked with me answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.”
6 «Esta es la palabra del Señor a Zorobabel: No por la fuerza ni por el poder, sino por mi Espíritu, dice el Señor de los ejércitos.
6 Then he answered and spoke to me, saying, “This is Yahweh’s word to Zerubbabel, saying, ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says Yahweh of Armies.
7 ¿Quién eres tú, gran montaña? Ante Zorobabel te convertirás en una llanura. Él mostrará a todos la piedra principal, mientras gritan: ¡Gracia, gracia para ella!».
7 Who are you, great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you are a plain; and he will bring out the capstone with shouts of ‘Grace, grace, to it!’”
8 Entonces el Señor me dijo:
8 Moreover Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
9 «Las manos de Zorobabel han puesto los cimientos de esta casa, y sus manos la terminarán. Así sabrás que el Señor de los ejércitos me ha enviado a ti.
9 “The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house. His hands shall also finish it; and you will know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me to you.
10 ¿Quién ha despreciado el día de los pequeños comienzos? Se alegrarán al ver la plomada en la mano de Zorobabel». Entonces me respondió: «Esas siete lámparas son los ojos del Señor, que recorren rápidamente toda la tierra».
10 Indeed, who despises the day of small things? For these seven shall rejoice, and shall see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. These are Yahweh’s eyes, which run back and forth through the whole earth.”
11 Le pregunté: «¿Qué son esos dos olivos, uno a la derecha del candelabro y otro a la izquierda?».
11 Then I asked him, “What are these two olive trees on the right side of the lamp stand and on the left side of it?”
12 Volví a preguntarle: «¿Qué son esas dos ramas de olivo por cuyos tubos de oro sale el aceite?».
12 I asked him the second time, “What are these two olive branches, which are beside the two golden spouts that pour the golden oil out of themselves?”
13 Me respondió: «¿No sabes qué son?». Le dije: «No, mi señor».
13 He answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.”
14 Él dijo: «Son los dos ungidos que están junto al Señor de toda la tierra».
14 Then he said, “These are the two anointed ones who stand by the Lord of the whole earth.”

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 4:10 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture VI)

    Some again dared to say that He has seven eyes, because it is written, seven eyes of the Lord looking upon the whole earth.
