< Zechariah 3 >

1 And he showed me Joshua the priest great standing before [the] angel of Yahweh and the accuser [was] standing at right [hand] his to accuse him.
天使又指給我看:大祭司約書亞站在耶和華的使者面前;撒但也站在約書亞的右邊,與他作對。
2 And he said Yahweh to the accuser may he rebuke Yahweh you O accuser and may he rebuke Yahweh you who has chosen Jerusalem ¿ not [is] this a piece of firewood plucked out from a fire.
耶和華向撒但說:「撒但哪,耶和華責備你!就是揀選耶路撒冷的耶和華責備你!這不是從火中抽出來的一根柴嗎?」
3 And Joshua he was clothed garments filthy and standing before the angel.
約書亞穿着污穢的衣服站在使者面前。
4 And he answered and he said to those [who] were standing before him saying remove the garments filthy from on him and he said to him see I have taken away from on you iniquity your and I will clothe you robes.
使者吩咐站在面前的說:「你們要脫去他污穢的衣服」;又對約書亞說:「我使你脫離罪孽,要給你穿上華美的衣服。」
5 And I said let them put a turban clean on head his and they put the turban clean on head his and they clothed him garments and [the] angel of Yahweh [was] standing.
我說:「要將潔淨的冠冕戴在他頭上。」他們就把潔淨的冠冕戴在他頭上,給他穿上華美的衣服,耶和華的使者在旁邊站立。
6 And he admonished [the] angel of Yahweh Joshua saying.
耶和華的使者告誡約書亞說:
7 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts if in ways my you will walk and if charge my you will keep and also you you will govern house my and also you will guard courts my and I will give to you goings between those [who] are standing these.
「萬軍之耶和華如此說:你若遵行我的道,謹守我的命令,你就可以管理我的家,看守我的院宇;我也要使你在這些站立的人中間來往。
8 Hear please O Joshua - the priest great you and companions your who sit before you for [are] men of sign they for here I [am] about to bring servant my branch.
大祭司約書亞啊,你和坐在你面前的同伴都當聽。(他們是作預兆的。)我必使我僕人大衛的苗裔發出。
9 For - there! the stone which I have set before Joshua [are] on a stone one seven eyes here I [am] about to engrave engraving its [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts and I will remove [the] iniquity of the land that in a day one.
看哪,我在約書亞面前所立的石頭,在一塊石頭上有七眼。萬軍之耶和華說:我要親自雕刻這石頭,並要在一日之間除掉這地的罪孽。
10 In the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts you will invite each neighbor his to under a vine and to under a fig tree.
當那日,你們各人要請鄰舍坐在葡萄樹和無花果樹下。這是萬軍之耶和華說的。」
