Zechariah 4:6-10
New King James Version
6 So he answered and said to me:
“This is the word of the Lord to (A)Zerubbabel:
(B)‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’
Says the Lord of hosts.
7 ‘Who are you, (C)O great mountain?
Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain!
And he shall bring forth (D)the capstone
(E)With shouts of “Grace, grace to it!” ’ ”
8 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
9 “The hands of Zerubbabel
(F)Have laid the foundation of this [a]temple;
His hands (G)shall also finish it.
Then (H)you will know
That the (I)Lord of hosts has sent Me to you.
10 For who has despised the day of (J)small things?
For these seven rejoice to see
The [b]plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel.
(K)They are the eyes of the Lord,
Which scan to and fro throughout the whole earth.”
