< Zacharias 3 >
1 And the Lord showed me Jesus the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and the Devil stood on his right hand to resist him.
[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。
2 And the Lords said to the Devil, The Lord rebuke you, O Devil, even the Lord that has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you: behold! is not this as a brand plucked from the fire?
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﹖﹖」
3 Now Jesus was clothed in filthy raiment, and stood before the angel.
那時耶叔亞身穿污穢的衣服,站在使者的面前。
4 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 your iniquities: and clothe you him with a long robe,
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。」
5 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].
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。
6 And the angel of the Lord testified to Jesus, saying,
上主的使者便勸耶叔亞說:「
7 Thus says the Lord Almighty; If you will walk in my ways, and take heed to my charges, then shall you judge my house: and if you will diligently keep my court, then will I give you men to walk in the midst of these that stand [here].
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。」
8 Hear now, Jesus the high priest, you, and your neighbours that are sitting before [you]: for they are diviners, for, behold, I bring forth my servant The Branch.
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。
9 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, says the Lord Almighty, and I will search out all the iniquity of that land in one day.
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。
10 In that day, says the Lord Almighty, you shall call together every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.
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。
