Zechariah 3
1 Then [Yahweh] showed me Joshua, the Supreme Priest, [who was] standing in front of the angel that Yahweh had sent. And Satan was standing at Joshua’s right side, [ready] to accuse him.
Et le Seigneur me montra Jésus, le grand prêtre, se tenant devant l'ange du Seigneur, et le diable était à sa droite, pour s'opposer à lui.
2 But Yahweh said to Satan, “Satan, I am rebuking you! I [am the one] who has chosen Jerusalem [to be my special city, and I] am rebuking you! This [man, Joshua], [has been brought back from Babylonia]; he is surely [like] [MET, RHQ] a burning stick that has been snatched from a fire.”
Et le Seigneur dit au diable: Que le Seigneur te réprime, ô Satan; que le Seigneur, qui a choisi Jérusalem, te réprime! Vois: cela n'est-il pas comme un tison retiré du feu?
3 Joshua was wearing filthy clothes while he was standing in front of the angel.
Or Jésus avait des vêtements sordides, et il se tenait debout devant la face de l'ange.
4 The angel said to those [other angels] who were standing in front of him, “Take off his filthy clothes!” [After they did that, ] the angel said to Joshua, “Look! I have taken away [the guilt of] your sins, and I will put beautiful clothes on you.”
Et celui-ci parla, et dit à ceux qui se tenaient debout devant sa face: Ôtez au prêtre ses vêtements sordides; et, s'adressant à lui, il ajouta: Voilà que je t'ai ôté tes iniquités; et vous, revêtez-le de la robe traînante,
5 Then I said to them, “Put a clean turban on his head!” So they put a clean turban on his head and put [new] on him, while the angel sent by Yahweh was standing there.
et posez sur sa tête une tiare pure. Et ils le couvrirent d'une tiare pure, et ils lui donnèrent d'autres vêtements; et l'ange du Seigneur se tenait auprès d'eux.
6 Then the angel said [this] to Joshua:
Et l'ange du Seigneur, s'expliquant avec Jésus, lui dit:
7 “The Commander of the armies of angels says that if you do what I want you to do [IDM], and obey my instructions, you will (be in charge of/have authority over) [what is done in] my temple and its courtyard. And I will allow you to speak at any time to the angels who are standing near to me.
Voici ce que dit le Seigneur, maître de toutes choses: Si tu chemines en Mes voies, si tu gardes Mes commandements, tu seras le juge de Ma maison; et si tu gardes Mes parvis, Je te donnerai des hommes pour marcher au milieu de ceux qui sont ici.
8 Joshua, [you are] the Supreme Priest, and your (associates/fellow priests) are sitting in front of you. They symbolize/represent things that will happen in the future. [Some day] I am going to bring someone who will work for me, someone who will be called the Branch.
Écoute donc, Jésus, grand prêtre, écoutez aussi, vous qui êtes assis avec lui devant Moi; car vous êtes des hommes attentifs aux prodiges; or voilà que J'amène Mon serviteur Orient.
9 Look at the stone that I have put in front of Joshua. There are seven sides on the stone. I will engrave a message on that stone, and in one day I will remove the guilt of [all the people of] this country.
Car voici la pierre que J'ai placée devant la face de Jésus; sur cette pierre unique il y a sept yeux; et voilà que Je creuse une fosse, dit le Seigneur tout puissant, et en un seul jour J'ôterai toute l'iniquité de cette terre.
10 At that time, each of you will invite his friends [to come and sit] under his grapevine and under his fig tree. [That is what] the Commander of the armies of angels declares.”
En ce jour, dit le Seigneur tout puissant, chacun de vous invitera son ami sous sa vigne et sous son figuier.
