The Candlestick and the Olive Trees

41 Then the angel who was speaking with me returned and roused me, as a man who is awakened from his sleep . 2 He said to me, " What do you see ?" And I said , "I see , and behold , a lampstand all of gold with its bowl on the top of it, and its seven lamps on it with seven spouts belonging to each of the lamps which are on the top of it; 3 also two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl and the other on its left side ." 4 Then I said to the angel who was speaking with me saying , "What are these , my lord ?" 5 So the angel who was speaking with me answered and said to me, " Do you not know what these are?" And I said , "No , my lord ." 6 Then he said to me, "This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel saying , ' Not by might nor by power , but by My Spirit ,' says the Lord of hosts . 7 'What are you, O great mountain ? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain ; and he will bring forth the top stone with shouts of "Grace , grace to it!""' 8 Also the word of the Lord came to me, saying , 9 "The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house , and his hands will finish it. Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you. 10 "For who has despised the day of small things ? But these seven will be glad when they see the plumb e line e in the hand of Zerubbabel -these are the eyes of the Lord which range to and fro throughout the earth ."

11 Then I said to him, "What are these two olive trees on the right of the lampstand and on its left ?" 12 And I answered the second time and said to him, "What are the two olive branches which are beside the two golden pipes , which empty the golden oil from themselves?" 13 So he answered me, saying , " Do you not know what these are?" And I said , "No , my lord ." 14 Then he said , "These are the two anointed e ones who are standing by the Lord of the whole earth ."

The Prophet's Vision of Joshua the High Priest

31 Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord , and Satan standing at his right hand to accuse him. 2 The Lord said to Satan , " The Lord rebuke you, Satan ! Indeed, the Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Is this not a brand plucked from the fire ?" 3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments and standing before the angel . 4 He spoke and said to those who were standing before him, saying , " Remove the filthy garments from him." Again he said to him, "See , I have taken your iniquity away from you and will clothe you with festal robes ." 5 Then I said , "Let them put a clean turban on his head ." So they put a clean turban on his head and clothed him with garments , while the angel of the Lord was standing by. 6 And the angel of the Lord admonished Joshua , saying , 7 "Thus says the Lord of hosts , 'If you will walk in My ways and if you will perform My service , then you will also govern My house and also have charge of My courts , and I will grant you free access among these who are standing here.

8 'Now listen , Joshua the high priest , you and your friends who are sitting in front of you-indeed they are men who are a symbol , for behold , I am going to bring in My servant the Branch . 9 'For behold , the stone that I have set before Joshua ; on one stone are seven eyes . Behold , I will engrave an inscription on it,' declares the Lord of hosts , 'and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day . 10 'In that day ,' declares the Lord of hosts , 'every one of you will invite his neighbor to sit under his vine and under his fig tree .'
