< Zechariah 3 >
1 He showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.
天使又指给我看:大祭司约书亚站在耶和华的使者面前;撒但也站在约书亚的右边,与他作对。
2 The LORD said to Satan, "The LORD rebuke you, Satan. Yes, the LORD who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you. Isn't this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?"
耶和华向撒但说:“撒但哪,耶和华责备你!就是拣选耶路撒冷的耶和华责备你!这不是从火中抽出来的一根柴吗?”
3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the angel.
约书亚穿着污秽的衣服站在使者面前。
4 He answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, "Take the filthy garments off of him." To him he said, "Look, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich clothing."
使者吩咐站在面前的说:“你们要脱去他污秽的衣服”;又对约书亚说:“我使你脱离罪孽,要给你穿上华美的衣服。”
5 I said, "Let them set a clean turban on his head." So they set a clean turban on his head, and clothed him; and the angel of the LORD was standing by.
我说:“要将洁净的冠冕戴在他头上。”他们就把洁净的冠冕戴在他头上,给他穿上华美的衣服,耶和华的使者在旁边站立。
6 The angel of the LORD protested to Joshua, saying,
耶和华的使者告诫约书亚说:
7 "Thus says the LORD of hosts: '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.
“万军之耶和华如此说:你若遵行我的道,谨守我的命令,你就可以管理我的家,看守我的院宇;我也要使你在这些站立的人中间来往。
8 Hear now, Joshua the high priest, you and your fellows who sit before you; for they are men who are a sign: for, look, I will bring forth my servant, the Branch.
大祭司约书亚啊,你和坐在你面前的同伴都当听。(他们是作预兆的。)我必使我仆人大卫的苗裔发出。
9 For, look, the stone that I have set before Joshua; on one stone are seven eyes: look, I will engrave its engraving,' says the LORD of hosts, 'and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
看哪,我在约书亚面前所立的石头,在一块石头上有七眼。万军之耶和华说:我要亲自雕刻这石头,并要在一日之间除掉这地的罪孽。
10 In that day,' says the LORD of hosts, 'you will invite every man his neighbor under the vine and under the fig tree.'"
当那日,你们各人要请邻舍坐在葡萄树和无花果树下。这是万军之耶和华说的。”
