زَكَريَّا 3

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

And he shows me Joshua the high priest standing before the Messenger of YHWH, and Satan standing at his right hand, to be an adversary to him.

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

And YHWH says to Satan: “YHWH pushes against you, O Satan, Indeed, YHWH pushes against you, Who is fixing on Jerusalem, Is this not a brand delivered from fire?”

٣ 3 وَكَانَ يَهُوشَعُ لَابِسًا ثِيَابًا قَذِرَةً وَوَاقِفًا قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلَاكِ.

And Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and is standing before the Messenger.

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

And He answers and speaks to those standing before Him, saying, “Turn aside the filthy garments from off him.” And He says to him, “See, I have caused your iniquity to pass away from off you, so as to clothe you with costly apparel.”

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

He also said, “Let them set a pure turban on his head.” And they set the pure turban on his head, and clothe him with garments. And the Messenger of YHWH is standing,

٦ 6 فَأَشْهَدَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى يَهُوشَعَ قَائِلًا:

and the Messenger of YHWH protests to Joshua, 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 said YHWH of Hosts: If you walk in My ways, And if you keep My charge, Then also you judge My house, And also you keep My courts, And I have given to you conductors among these standing by.

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

Now hear, O Joshua the high priest, You and your companions sitting before you (For men of type [are] they), For behold, I am bringing in My servant—a Shoot.

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 behold, the stone that I put before Joshua, On one stone [are] seven eyes, Behold, I am engraving its engraving, A declaration of YHWH of Hosts, And I have removed 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—a declaration of YHWH of Hosts, You call, each to his neighbor, To the place of the vine, And to the place of the fig tree!”
