زَكَريَّا 3

١ 1 وَأَرَانِي يَهُوشَعَ ٱلْكَاهِنَ ٱلْعَظِيمَ قَائِمًا قُدَّامَ مَلَاكِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَٱلشَّيْطَانُ قَائِمٌ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ لِيُقَاوِمَهُ.

And the Lord shewed me Jesus the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and the Devil stood on his right hand to resist him.

٢ 2 فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلشَّيْطَانِ: «لِيَنْتَهِرْكَ ٱلرَّبُّ يَا شَيْطَانُ! لِيَنْتَهِرْكَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي ٱخْتَارَ أُورُشَلِيمَ! أَفَلَيْسَ هَذَا شُعْلَةً مُنْتَشَلَةً مِنَ ٱلنَّارِ؟».

And the Lords said to the Devil, The Lord rebuke thee, O Devil, even the Lord that has chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: behold! is not this as a brand plucked from the fire?

٣ 3 وَكَانَ يَهُوشَعُ لَابِسًا ثِيَابًا قَذِرَةً وَوَاقِفًا قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلَاكِ.

Now Jesus was clothed in filthy raiment, and stood before the angel.

٤ 4 فَأَجَابَ وَكَلَّمَ ٱلْوَاقِفِينَ قُدَّامَهُ قَائِلًا: «ٱنْزِعُوا عَنْهُ ٱلثِّيَابَ ٱلْقَذِرَةَ». وَقَالَ لَهُ: «ٱنْظُرْ. قَدْ أَذْهَبْتُ عَنْكَ إِثْمَكَ، وَأُلْبِسُكَ ثِيَابًا مُزَخْرَفَةً».

And [the Lord] answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy raiment from him: and he said to him, Behold, I have taken away thine iniquities: and clothe ye him with a long robe,

٥ 5 فَقُلْتُ: «لِيَضَعُوا عَلَى رَأْسِهِ عِمَامَةً طَاهِرَةً». فَوَضَعُوا عَلَى رَأْسِهِ ٱلْعِمَامَةَ ٱلطَّاهِرَةَ، وَأَلْبَسُوهُ ثِيَابًا وَمَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ وَاقِفٌ.

and place a pure mitre upon his head. So they placed a pure mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments: and the angel of the Lord stood [by].

٦ 6 فَأَشْهَدَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى يَهُوشَعَ قَائِلًا:

And the angel of the Lord testified to Jesus, saying,

٧ 7 «هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: إِنْ سَلَكْتَ فِي طُرُقِي، وَإِنْ حَفِظْتَ شَعَائِرِي، فَأَنْتَ أَيْضًا تَدِينُ بَيْتِي، وَتُحَافِظُ أَيْضًا عَلَى دِيَارِي، وَأُعْطِيكَ مَسَالِكَ بَيْنَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْوَاقِفِينَ.

Thus saith the Lord Almighty; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and take heed to my charges, then shalt thou judge my house: and if thou wilt diligently keep my court, then will I give thee men to walk in the midst of these that stand [here].

٨ 8 فَٱسْمَعْ يَا يَهُوشَعُ ٱلْكَاهِنُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ أَنْتَ وَرُفَقَاؤُكَ ٱلْجَالِسُونَ أَمَامَكَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ رِجَالُ آيَةٍ، لِأَنِّي هَأَنَذَا آتِي بِعَبْدِي «ٱلْغُصْنِ».

Hear now, Jesus the high priest, thou, and thy neighbours that are sitting before [thee]: for they are diviners, for, behold, I bring forth my servant The Branch.

٩ 9 فَهُوَذَا ٱلْحَجَرُ ٱلَّذِي وَضَعْتُهُ قُدَّامَ يَهُوشَعَ عَلَى حَجَرٍ وَاحِدٍ سَبْعُ أَعْيُنٍ. هَأَنَذَا نَاقِشٌ نَقْشَهُ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، وَأُزِيلُ إِثْمَ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَرْضِ فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ.

For [as for] the stone which I have set before the face of Jesus, on the one stone are seven eyes: behold, I am digging a trench, saith the Lord Almighty, and I will search out all the iniquity of that land in one day.

١٠ 10 فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، يُنَادِي كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ قَرِيبَهُ تَحْتَ ٱلْكَرْمَةِ وَتَحْتَ ٱلتِّينَةِ».

In that day, saith the Lord Almighty, ye shall call together every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig-tree.
