1 Entonces el ángel con el que yo hablaba volvió y llamó mi atención, como cuando despiertan a alguien de su sueño.
1 The angel who talked with me came again and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep.
2 “¿Qué ves?” me preguntó. “Veo un candelabro hecho de oro sólido con un tazón que sostiene siete lámparas sobre él, cada una con siete labios.
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 También veo árboles de olivos, uno a la derecha y uno a la izquierda del tazón”.
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 Entonces le pregunté al ángel con el que hablaba: “¿Qué son estos, mi señor?”
4 I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
5 “¿No sabes lo que son?” respondió el ángel. “No, mi señor”, respondí.
5 Then the angel who talked with me answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.”
6 Entonces me dijo: “Este es el mensaje del Señor a Zorobabel: No es con poder, ni con fuerza sino con mi espíritu, dice el Señor.
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 Aún los obstáculos grandes como montañas serán aplastados ante Zorobabel. Finalmente traerá la piedra angular con gritos de ‘¡Bendiciones sobre 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 dio otro mensaje.
8 Moreover Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
9 Zorobabel con sus propias manos estableció los cimientos de este Templo, y será completado de la misma forma. Entonces sabrás que el Señor Todopoderoso me ha enviado.
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 ¿Acaso quién se atreve a menospreciar estos tiempos de comienzos pequeños? Serán felices cuando vean la plomada en la mano de Zorobabel. “Las siete lámparas representan los ojos del Señor que ve a todo el mundo”.
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 Entonces le pregunté al ángel: “¿Que significan los dos árboles de olivo que están a los lados del candelabro?”
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 Y también le pregunté: “¿Que significan las dos ramas de olvido de las cuales sale el aceite dorado a través de las boquillas doradas?”
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 “¿No lo sabes?” respondió el ángel. “No, mi señor”, le respondí.
13 He answered me, “Don’t you know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.”
14 “Estos son los dos que han sido ungidos y que están junto al Señor de toda la tierra”, respondió.
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.
