6 Then he said to me, “This is the word of the Lord to ^lZerubbabel: ^mNot by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of hosts. 7 Who are you, ⁿO great mountain? Before ^lZerubbabel ^oyou shall become a plain. And he shall bring forward ^pthe top stone amid shouts of ‘Grace, grace to it!’”

8 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 9 ^q“The hands of ^lZerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also ^rcomplete it. ^sThen you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you. 10 ^tFor whoever has despised the day of small things shall rejoice, and shall see ^uthe plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel.

^v“These seven ^vare the eyes of the Lord, ^wwhich range through the whole earth.”
