Zaharija 3
1 Potom mi pokaza Jošuu, velikog svećenika, koji stajaše pred anđelom Jahvinim, i Satana, koji mu stajaše zdesna da ga tuži.
He showed me Joshua the high priest standing before Yahweh’s angel, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.
2 Anđeo Jahvin reče Satanu: “Suzbio te Jahve, Satane! Suzbio te Jahve koji izabra Jeruzalem! Nije li on glavnja iz ognja izvučena?”
Yahweh said to Satan, “Yahweh rebuke you, Satan! Yes, Yahweh who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn’t this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?”
3 A Jošua bijaše obučen u prljave haljine dok stajaše pred anđelom Jahvinim.
Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the angel.
4 Anđeo se obrati onima koji pred njim stajahu i reče im: “Skinite s njega te prljave haljine!” I reče mu: “Evo, skidam s tebe tvoju krivicu i odijevam te u dragocjenu haljinu!”
He answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, “Take the filthy garments off him.” To him he said, “Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich clothing.”
5 I nastavi: “Stavite mu čist povez oko glave!” Oni mu staviše čist povez oko glave i odjenuše ga u dragocjene haljine u nazočnosti anđelovoj.
I said, “Let them set a clean turban on his head.” So they set a clean turban on his head, and clothed him; and Yahweh’s angel was standing by.
6 I anđeo Jahvin upozori Jošuu:
Yahweh’s angel solemnly assured Joshua, saying,
7 “Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: 'Ako budeš mojim putovima hodio i mojih se pridržavao naredaba, ti ćeš biti upravitelj u Domu mojemu, čuvat ćeš moja predvorja i dat ću ti pristup među one koji ondje stoje.
“Yahweh of Armies says: ‘If you will walk in my ways, and if you will follow my instructions, then you also shall judge my house, and shall also keep my courts, and I will give you a place of access among these who stand by.
8 Poslušaj, dakle, Jošua, veliki svećeniče, ti i drugovi tvoji koji su oko tebe, jer vi ste ljudi znamenja! Evo, ja ću dovesti Izdanak, Slugu svojega, i uklonit ću opačinu ove zemlje u jedan dan.
Hear now, Joshua the high priest, you and your fellows who sit before you, for they are men who are a sign; for, behold, I will bring out my servant, the Branch.
9 Jer evo kamena koji stavljam pred Jošuu: na tom je kamenu sedam očiju i u nj ću urezati natpis' - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama.
For, behold, the stone that I have set before Joshua: on one stone are seven eyes; behold, I will engrave its inscription,’ says Yahweh of Armies, ‘and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
10 'U dan onaj' - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama - 'pozivat ćete jedan drugoga pod lozu i pod smokvu.'”
In that day,’ says Yahweh of Armies, ‘you will invite every man his neighbor under the vine and under the fig tree.’”
