The Message
Zechariah 4:5-7
The Message
5-7 The Messenger-Angel said, “Can’t you tell?”
“No, sir,” I said.
Then he said, “This is God’s Message to Zerubbabel: ‘You can’t force these things. They only come about through my Spirit,’ says God-of-the-Angel-Armies. ‘So, big mountain, who do you think you are? Next to Zerubbabel you’re nothing but a molehill. He’ll proceed to set the Cornerstone in place, accompanied by cheers: Yes! Yes! Do it!’”

Zechariah 4:5-7
New International Version
5 He answered, “Do you not know what these are?”
“No, my lord,” I replied.(A)
6 So he said to me, “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel:(B) ‘Not(C) by might nor by power,(D) but by my Spirit,’(E) says the Lord Almighty.
7 “What are you, mighty mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become level ground.(F) Then he will bring out the capstone(G) to shouts(H) of ‘God bless it! God bless it!’”
