Zechariah 4:6 Then He Answered And Spake Unto Me, Saying, This Is The Word Of The LORD Unto Zerubbabel, Saying, Not By Might, Nor By Power, But By My Spirit, Saith The LORD Of Hosts.

Zechariah 4:6 (KJV) — Full Verse and Context​

Full KJV text:
“Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.” King James Bible Online

Full verse in context (KJV):
6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.
7 Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.
8 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you.
10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.
11 Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?
12 And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?
13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.
14 Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth. King James Bible Online+1

Summary of context:
In Zechariah 4, the prophet sees a vision of a golden candlestick with two olive trees (symbolizing anointed leaders) beside it. The angel explains that the LORD’s message to Zerubbabel is that the rebuilding of Jerusalem will not succeed through human strength or political might, but through the LORD’s Spirit. The verse is a call to trust God’s power rather than human resources, and it is followed by a promise that Zerubbabel will accomplish the task and that the LORD has sent the prophet to encourage him King James Bible Online+1.
