Zechariah 3
1 And he shewed me, Joshua the high priest, standing before the messenger of Yahweh, —and, the Accuser, standing at his right hand, to accuse him.
Ary dia nasehony ahy fa, indro, Josoa mpisoronabe nitsangana teo anatrehan’ Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah, ary Satana nitsangana teo an-kavanany hiampanga azy.
2 Then said Yahweh unto the Accuser, Yahweh rebuke thee, O Accuser, Yea Yahweh rebuke thee, he who is choosing Jerusalem, —Is not, this, a brand snatched out of the fire?
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Satana: Hananatra anao anie Jehovah, ry Satana; eny, Jehovah Izay nifidy an’ i Jerosalema anie hananatra anao; tsy forohana nosarihana tamin’ ny afo va ity?
3 Now, Joshua, was clothed with filthy garments, —though standing before the messenger.
Ary Josoa nitafy fitafiana maloto ary nitsangana teo anoloan’ Ilay Anjely.
4 Then responded he and spake unto those who were standing before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from off him; and he said unto him, See! I have caused to pass from off thee, thine iniquity, And will cause thee to be clothed in robes of state.
Dia namaly Jehovah ka nilaza tamin’ izay nitsangana teo anoloany hoe: Esory aminy ny fitafiana maloto. Ary hoy koa Izy taminy: Indro, efa nesoriko ny helokao, ary hampiakanjoiko akanjo fihaingoana ianao.
5 Then said I, Let them put a clean turban upon his head, —So they put the clean turban upon his head, and clothed him with garments, and, the messenger of Yahweh, was standing up.
Dia hoy izaho: Aoka hasiany hamama madio eo an-dohany. Ka dia nasiany hamama madio teo an-dohany, sady nampitafiny izy; ary Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah dia nitsangana teo.
6 So then the messenger of Yahweh did solemnly affirm unto Joshua, saying:
Ary Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah nilaza marimarina tamin’ i Josoa hoe:
7 Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, If, in my ways, thou wilt walk, and if, of my charge, thou wilt keep charge, Then, even thou, shalt govern my house, Moreover also, thou shalt have charge of my courts, —and I will give thee free access among these who stand by.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Raha mizotra amin’ ny lalako ianao sy mitandrina ny didiko, dia ianao no hitsara ny amin’ ny tranoko sy hitandrina ny kianjako, sady homeko lalana ho amin’ ireo mitsangana ireo ianao.
8 Hear, I pray thee, O Joshua the high priest, thou and thy friends who are sitting before thee, for, men to serve as signs, they are, —For behold me! bringing in my servant, the Bud;
Koa mihainoa, ry Josoa mpisoronabe, dia ianao sy ny namanao izay mipetraka eo anoloanao; fa olona atao fahagagana ireo; fa, indro, ho entiko Rantsana Mpanompoko.
9 For lo! the stone which I have set before Joshua, Upon one stone, are Seven (pairs of) Eyes, —Behold me! cutting the engraving thereof, declareth Yahweh of hosts. So will I take away the iniquity of that land in one day.
Fa, indro, ny vato izay napetrako teo anoloan’ i Josoa, ny vato iray dia banjinin’ ny maso fito; indro, hosoratako ny sorany, hoy Jehovah Tompon’ ny maro, ary hesoriko indray andro monja ny helok’ ity tany ity.
10 In that day, declareth Yahweh of hosts, Ye shall invite one another, —[to come] under the vine and under the fig-tree.
Amin’ izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, dia samy hiantso ny namanareo avy ho eo ambanin’ ny voaloboka sy ho eo ambanin’ ny aviavy ianareo.
