9The hands of Zerubbabel have put the base of this house in place, and his hands will make it complete; and it will be clear to you that the Lord of armies has sent me to you.
10For who has had a poor opinion of the day of small things? for they will be glad when they see the weighted measuring-line in the hand of Zerubbabel. Then he said in answer to me, These seven lights are the eyes of the Lord which go quickly up and down through all the earth.
11And I made answer and said to him, What are these two olive-trees on the right side of the light-support and on the left?
12And answering a second time, I said to him, What are these two olive branches, through whose gold pipes the oil is drained out?
13And he said in answer to me, Have you no knowledge what these are? And I said, No, my lord.
14And he said, These are the two sons of oil, whose place is by the Lord of all the earth.
