American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have seen, and, behold, a candlestick all of gold, with its bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps thereon; {The Septuagint Version and Vulgate have, and seven pipes to the lamps.}there are seven pipes to each of the lamps, which are upon the top thereof;
and two olive-trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.
And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of {Or, turned}beaten work shall the candlestick be made, even its {Hebrew: thigh.}base, and its shaft; its cups, its knops, and its flowers, shall be {Hebrew: out of the same.}of one piece with it:
and there shall be six branches going out of the sides thereof; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side thereof:
three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knop and a flower: so for the six branches going out of the candlestick:
and in the candlestick four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knops thereof, and the flowers thereof;
and a knop under two branches {Hebrew: out of the same.}of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches {Hebrew: out of the same.}of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches {Hebrew: out of the same.}of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of the candlestick.
Their knops and their branches shall be {Hebrew: out of the same.}of one piece with it; the whole of it one {Or, turned}beaten work of pure gold.
And thou shalt make the lamps thereof, seven: and they shall {Or, set up}light the lamps thereof, to give light over against it.
And the snuffers thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure gold.
Of a talent of pure gold shall it be made, with all these vessels.
And see that thou make them after their pattern, which hath been showed thee in the mount.
And ye have an anointing from the Holy One, {Some very ancient authorities read and ye all know.}and ye know all things.
And as for you, the anointing which ye received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any one teach you; but as his anointing teacheth you concerning all things, {Or, so it is true and is no lie; and even as &c.}and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, {Or, abide ye}ye abide in him.
Ye are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid.
Let your loins be girded about, and your lamps burning;
that ye may become blameless and harmless, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom ye are seen as {Greek: luminaries. Wisd. 13:2; compare Revelation 21:11}lights in the world,
the mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden {Greek: lampstands.}candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven {Greek: lampstands.}candlesticks are seven churches.
