Zechariah 3
1 And he shows me Joshua the high priest standing before the Messenger of YHWH, and Satan standing at his right hand, to be an adversary to him.
| ثُمَّ أَرَانِي الرَّبُّ يَهُوشَعَ رَئِيسَ الْكَهَنَةِ وَاقِفاً فِي حَضْرَةِ مَلاكِ الرَّبِّ، وَعَنْ يَمِينِهِ يَنْتَصِبُ الشَّيْطَانُ لِيُقَاوِمَهُ. | ١ |
2 And YHWH says to Satan: “YHWH pushes against you, O Satan, Indeed, YHWH pushes against you, Who is fixing on Jerusalem, Is this not a brand delivered from fire?”
| فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِلشَّيْطَانِ: «إِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَنْتَهِرُكَ يَا شَيْطَانُ، الرَّبُّ الَّذِي اصْطَفَى أُورُشَلِيمَ يَنْتَهِرُكَ، أَلَيْسَ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ كَحَطَبَةٍ مُشْتَعِلَةٍ انْتُشِلَتْ مِنَ النَّارِ؟» | ٢ |
3 And Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and is standing before the Messenger.
| وَكَانَ يَهُوشَعُ آنَئِذٍ وَاقِفاً فِي حَضْرَةِ الْمَلاكِ مُرْتَدِياً ثِيَاباً قَذِرَةً. | ٣ |
4 And He answers and speaks to those standing before Him, saying, “Turn aside the filthy garments from off him.” And He says to him, “See, I have caused your iniquity to pass away from off you, so as to clothe you with costly apparel.”
| فَقَالَ الْمَلاكُ لِلْمَاثِلِينَ فِي حَضْرَتِهِ: «اخْلَعُوا عَنْهُ هَذِهِ الثِّيَابَ الْقَذِرَةَ». ثُمَّ قَالَ لِيَهُوشَعَ: «انْظُرْ، هَا أَنَا قَدْ أَزَلْتُ عَنْكَ إِثْمَكَ وَكَسَوْتُكَ ثَوْباً جَدِيداً». | ٤ |
5 He also said, “Let them set a pure turban on his head.” And they set the pure turban on his head, and clothe him with garments. And the Messenger of YHWH is standing,
| ثُمَّ أَضَافَ: «ضَعُوا عِمَامَةً طَاهِرَةً عَلَى رَأْسِهِ». فَوَضَعُوا الْعِمَامَةَ الطَّاهِرَةَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَكَسَوْهُ ثِيَاباً بَهِيَّةً، وَمَلاكُ الرَّبِّ مَا بَرِحَ وَاقِفاً. | ٥ |
6 and the Messenger of YHWH protests to Joshua, saying,
| وَأَشْهَدَ مَلاكُ الرَّبِّ عَلَى يَهُوشَعَ قَائِلاً: | ٦ |
7 “Thus said YHWH of Hosts: If you walk in My ways, And if you keep My charge, Then also you judge My house, And also you keep My courts, And I have given to you conductors among these standing by.
| «هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: إِنْ سَلَكْتَ فِي طَرِيقِي وَأَطَعْتَ أَوَامِرِي، فَأَنْتَ أَيْضاً تَتَوَلَّى شُؤُونَ هَيْكَلِي وَتُحَافِظُ عَلَى دِيَارِي، وَأَمْنَحُكَ مَقَاماً بَيْنَ هَؤُلاءِ الْمَاثِلِينَ فِي حَضْرَتِي. | ٧ |
8 Now hear, O Joshua the high priest, You and your companions sitting before you (For men of type [are] they), For behold, I am bringing in My servant—a Shoot.
| فَأَصْغِ يَا يَهُوشَعُ رَئِيسُ الْكَهَنَةِ أَنْتَ وَسَائِرُ رِفَاقِكَ الْكَهَنَةِ الْجَالِسِينَ أَمَامَكَ. أَنْتُمْ رِجَالُ آيَةٍ وَهَا أَنَا آتِي بِعَبْدِي الَّذِي يُدْعَى الْغُصْنُ. | ٨ |
9 For behold, the stone that I put before Joshua, On one stone [are] seven eyes, Behold, I am engraving its engraving, A declaration of YHWH of Hosts, And I have removed the iniquity of that land in one day.
| هَا هُوَ الْحَجَرُ الَّذِي وَضَعْتُهُ أَمَامَ يَهُوشَعَ، تَحْرُسُهُ سَبْعُ أَعْيُنٍ، قَدْ شَذَّبْتُهُ تَشْذِيباً وَكَتَبْتُ عَلَيْهِ»، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: «وَأُزِيلُ إِثْمَ هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ». | ٩ |
10 In that day—a declaration of YHWH of Hosts, You call, each to his neighbor, To the place of the vine, And to the place of the fig tree!”
| وَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: «فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَدْعُو كُلٌّ مِنْكُمْ صَدِيقَهُ لِيَسْتَرِيحَ تَحْتَ كَرْمَتِهِ وَفِي ظِلِّ تِينَتِهِ». | ١٠ |
