Zechariah 4:6-9
Then he (an angel) said to me (Zechariah), This addition of the bowl to
the candlestick, causing it to yield a ceaseless supply of oil from the olive
trees is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power,
but by My Spirit of Whom the oil is a symbol, says the Lord of hosts.
For who are you, O great mountain of human obstacles? Before Zerubbabel who with
Joshua had led the return of the exiles from Babylon and was undertaking the
rebuilding of the temple, before him you shall become a plain, a mere molehill!
And he shall bring forth the finishing gable stone [of the new temple] with loud
shoutings of the people, crying, Grace, Grace to
it!
Moreover, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundations of this house; his hands shall
also finish it. Then you shall know, recognize and understand that the Lord of
hosts has sent me [His messenger] to you.
