Vision Five: The Menorah
4:1 The angelic messenger who had been speaking with me then returned and woke me, as a person is wakened from sleep .
4:2 He asked me, “What do you see ?” I replied , “I see a menorah of pure gold with a receptacle at the top and seven lamps , with fourteen pipes going to the lamps .
4:3 There are also two olive trees beside it, one on the right of the receptacle and the other on the left .”
4:4 Then I asked the messenger who spoke with me, “What are these , sir ?”
4:5 He replied , “Don’t you know what these are?” So I responded , “No , sir .”
