< Zechariah 3 >
1 And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the agent of Jehovah, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.
Apre sa, Seyè a fè m' wè Jozye, granprèt la, ki te kanpe devan zanj Seyè a. Satan menm te kanpe sou bò dwat Jozye pou l' te ka akize l'.
2 And Jehovah said to Satan, Jehovah rebuke thee, O Satan. Yea, Jehovah who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee. Is this not a brand plucked out of the fire?
Zanj Seyè a di Satan konsa: -Se pou Seyè a regle ou, Satan. Wi, se pou Seyè a ki renmen lavil Jerizalèm lan regle ou! Nonm sa a tankou yon bout bwa tou limen yo kouri wete nan dife pou l' pa fin boule nèt.
3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the agent.
Jozye te kanpe la devan zanj Seyè a, ak rad li tou sal.
4 And he answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, Take the filthy garments from off him. And to him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with rich apparel.
Zanj lan pran lapawòl ankò, li pale ak lòt zanj ki te la tou devan li. Li di yo: -Wete rad sal ki sou li a. Epi li di Jozye konsa: -Ou wè. Mwen wete tout peche ou yo. M'ap ba ou bèl rad pwòp pou ou mete sou ou.
5 And I said, Let them set a clean miter upon his head. So they set a clean miter upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the agent of Jehovah was standing by.
Lèfini, li pase yon lòd, li di lòt zanj yo: -Mare tèt li ak yon mouchwa pwòp. Yo mare tèt Jozye ak yon bèl mouchwa pwòp, epi yo mete rad pwòp sou li. Zanj lan menm te kanpe la ap gade.
6 And the agent of Jehovah testified to Joshua, saying,
Apre sa, zanj Seyè a pale ak Jozye, li di l' konsa:
7 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: If thou will walk in my ways, and if thou will keep my charge, then thou also shall judge my house, and shall also keep my courts, and I will give thee a place of access among these who stand by.
-Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di ou: Si ou fè sa mwen di ou fè, si ou swiv lòd mwen ba ou yo, se ou menm ki pral gouvènen kay mwen an. W'a reskonsab lakou m' lan. M'a koute lapriyè ou menm jan mwen koute lapriyè zanj ki devan m' yo.
8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou and thy fellows who sit before thee, for they are men who are a sign. For, behold, I will bring forth my servant the Branch.
Koute byen, ou menm Jozye, granprèt la, ansanm ak prèt parèy ou yo ki la devan ou. Nou pral sèvi remak pou bagay ki gen pou rive a. M'ap fè sèvitè m' lan, sa yo rele Boujon an, vini.
9 For, behold, the stone that I have set before Joshua. Upon one stone are seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave the graving of it, says Jehovah of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
Men m'ap mete yon wòch devan Jozye. Wòch sa a gen sèt fas. Se mwen menm ki pral make pawòl ki pou make sou wòch la. Se mwen menm Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a ki di sa. M'ap pran yon sèl jou pou m' wete tout peche ki nan peyi a.
10 In that day, says Jehovah of hosts, ye shall invite each man his neighbor under the vine and under the fig tree.
Jou sa a, yonn pral envite lòt vin lakay nou anba pye rezen ak pye fig frans nou yo. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a menm ki di sa.
