撒迦利亞書 3

1 [第四個神視：撒殫控告耶叔亞大司祭]以後上主使我看見大司祭耶叔亞，站在上主的使者面前，同時撒殫站在耶叔亞右邊控告他。

Then the angel showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, with Satan standing at his right hand to accuse him.

2 上主的使者對撒殫說：「惟願上主責斥你，撒殫! 惟願揀選耶路撒冷的上主責斥你。這不是由火中抽出來的一根木柴嗎﹖﹖」

And the LORD said to Satan: “The LORD rebukes you, Satan! Indeed, the LORD, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebukes you! Is not this man a firebrand snatched from the fire?”

3 那時耶叔亞身穿污穢的衣服，站在使者的面前。

Now Joshua was dressed in filthy garments as he stood before the angel.

4 使者就吩咐那些立在他面前的說：「脫去他身上污穢的衣服! 」以後向他說：「看，我已脫去了你的罪過，給你穿上華麗的禮服。」

So the angel said to those standing before him, “Take off his filthy clothes!” Then he said to Joshua, “See, I have removed your iniquity, and I will clothe you with splendid robes.”

5 隨後接著吩咐說：「在他頭上纏上一條潔淨的頭巾! 」他們就在他頭上纏上了一條潔淨的頭巾，給他穿上了潔淨的禮服。那時，上主的使者，站在旁邊。

Then I said, “Let them put a clean turban on his head.” So a clean turban was placed on his head, and they clothed him, as the angel of the LORD stood by.

6 上主的使者便勸耶叔亞說：「

Then the angel of the LORD gave this charge to Joshua:

7 萬軍的上主這樣說：如果你遵行我的道路，謹守我的法令，你便可以管理我的家，看守我的庭院；我必要使你在這些等立者中，自由出入。」

“This is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘If you walk in My ways and keep My instructions, then you will govern My house and will also have charge of My courts; and I will give you a place among these who are standing here.

8 所以，大司祭耶叔亞，你且聽著：你和坐在你面前的同伴都是作預兆的人。攪，我必要使我的僕人「苖芽」生出。

Hear now, O high priest Joshua, you and your companions seated before you, who are indeed a sign. For behold, I am going to bring My servant, the Branch.

9 看，這是我在耶叔亞面前安置的石頭，在這惟一的石頭上有七隻眼睛；看! 我要親自在石上刻上題名──萬軍上主的斷語──並且要在那一天除去地上的罪過。

See the stone I have set before Joshua; on that one stone are seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave on it an inscription, declares the LORD of Hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of this land in a single day.

10 在那一天──萬軍上主的斷語──你們必要互相邀請自己的鄰里，到葡萄樹和無花果樹下。

On that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, you will each invite your neighbor to sit under your own vine and fig tree.’”
