Zechariah 3

1 He showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the LORD’s angel, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.

Vaihma kacue Joshua ni BAWIPA e kalvantami hmalah a kangdue e thoseh, Setan ni a taran teh ahnie aranglah a kangdue e thoseh, kai hah na patue.

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?”

BAWIPA e kalvantami nihaiyah Oe Setan, BAWIPA ni nang teh na yue lawi seh, Jerusalem khopui ka rawi tangcoung e BAWIPA ni nang hah teh na yue raw naseh. Hete tami teh hmai dawk hoi rayu e thingtu nahoehmaw telah Setan hanlah atipouh.

3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the angel.

Joshua ni kakhin e khohna hah a khohna hoi kalvantami hmalah a kangdue teh,

4 He answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, “Take the filthy garments off him.” To him he said, “Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich clothing.”

Kalvantami ni kakhin khohna hah rading haw telah a hmalah kangdout e alouke taminaw hanlah atipouh. Joshua hanelah nange na yonnae ka thoung sak toe. Kamcu e khohna hoi na pathoup han atipouh.

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 LORD’s angel was standing by.

Kai ni hai kathounge lupawk ahnie a lû dawk pawk sak awh, ka tie patetlah kathounge lupawk hah ahnie a lû dawk a pawk sak awh teh khohna hah a khohna sak awh. BAWIPA e kalvantami haiyah ahnimae ateng vah a kangdue.

6 The LORD’s angel solemnly assured Joshua, saying,

BAWIPA e kalvantami ni ransahu BAWIPA e kâpoenae bout a dei teh, Joshua koe kâlawk a poe e teh,

7 “The LORD of Armies says: ‘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 amongst these who stand by.

Nang ni ka lamthung na dawn teh ka kâlawknaw na tarawi pawiteh kaie ka im lawkceng thainae hoi ka lentoenae im hai na khetyawt han. Na hmalah kangdout e tami tangawn hah lamthung kapâtuekung lah na o nahanlah kai ni na hmoun han.

8 Hear now, Joshua the high priest, you and your fellows who sit before you, for they are men who are a sign; for, behold, I will bring out my servant, the Branch.

Oe, vaihma kacue Joshua na hmalah kaawm e na huikonaw hoi cungtalah thai awh haw. Nangmouh teh mitnoutnae hoi kâkuen e lah na o awh. Kaie ka san lah kaawm e cakang ka tâco sak han.

9 For, behold, the stone that I have set before Joshua: on one stone are seven eyes; behold, I will engrave its inscription,’ says the LORD of Armies, ‘and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.

Joshua hmalah ka hruek e talung hah khenhaw! Hote talung buet touh teh a mit sari touh padai vaiteh a khet han. Hote talung hai ka hem han. Hnin touh hoiyah hete ram e yon ka takhoe han telah ransahu BAWIPA ni ati.

10 In that day,’ says the LORD of Armies, ‘you will invite every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.’”

Hatnae hnin nah, nangmouh ni na imri buet touh hoi buet touh misurkung rahim, thaibunglung rahim na kâkaw awh han telah ransahu BAWIPA ni ati.
