< Zechariah 3 >

1 And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the Angel of Jehovah, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.
Sa’an nan ya nuna mini Yoshuwa babban firist a tsaye a gaban mala’ikan Ubangiji, Shaiɗan kuma yana tsaye a damansa don yă tuhume shi.
2 And Jehovah said unto Satan, Jehovah rebuke thee, O Satan! Yea, Jehovah that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee! Is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?
Ubangiji ya ce wa Shaiɗan, “Ubangiji ya tsawata maka, Shaiɗan! Ubangiji wanda ya zaɓi Urushalima, ya tsawata maka! Ashe, mutumin nan ba shi ne sandar da take ƙonewa da aka ciro daga cikin wuta ba?”
3 And Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the Angel.
Yanzu an sa wa Yoshuwa tufafi masu dauda sa’ad da yake tsaye a gaban mala’ikan.
4 And he spoke and said unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from off him. And unto him he said, See, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I clothe thee with festival-robes.
Mala’ikan ya ce wa waɗanda suke tsaye a gabansa, “Ku cire masa tufafinsa masu dauda.” Sai ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Duba, na ɗauke zunubanka, zan sa maka tufafi masu tsada.”
5 And I said, Let them set a pure turban upon his head. And they set the pure turban upon his head, and clothed him with garments; and the Angel of Jehovah stood by.
Sai na ce, “Sa masa rawani mai tsabta a kansa.” Aka sa masa rawani mai tsabta a kansa aka kuma sa masa tufafi yayinda mala’ikan Ubangiji yake tsaye a wurin.
6 And the Angel of Jehovah protested unto Joshua, saying,
Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya yi wa Yoshuwa wannan gargaɗi.
7 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts; and I will give thee a place to walk among these that stand by.
“Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, ‘In za ka yi tafiya a hanyoyina ka kuma kiyaye abubuwan da nake so, za ka zama shugaban haikalina, ka kuma lura da ɗakunan shari’ata, zan kuma ba ka wuri cikin waɗannan da suke tsaye a nan.
8 Hear now, Joshua the high priest, thou and thy fellows that sit before thee — for they are men of portent — for behold, I will bring forth my servant the Branch.
“‘Ka saurara, ya babban firist Yoshuwa, kai da abokanka da suke zaune a gabanka, ku da kuke alamun abubuwan da za su zo. Zan kawo bawana, wanda yake Reshe.
9 For behold, the stone that I have laid before Joshua — upon one stone are seven eyes; behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith Jehovah of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of this land in one day.
Dubi dutsen da na ajiye a gaban Yoshuwa! Akwai idanu bakwai a kan wannan dutse guda, zan kuma yi rubutu a kansa,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, ‘zan kuma kawar da zunubin ƙasan nan a rana ɗaya.
10 In that day, saith Jehovah of hosts, shall ye invite every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig-tree.
“‘A wannan rana kowannenku zai gayyaci maƙwabcinsa yă zauna a ƙarƙashin itacen inabi da kuma na ɓaure,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.”
