< Zechariah 3 >
1 And he sheweth me Joshua the high priest standing before the messenger of Jehovah, and the Adversary standing at his right hand, to be an adversary to him.
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 And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary: 'Jehovah doth push against thee, O Adversary, Yea, push against thee doth Jehovah, Who is fixing on Jerusalem, Is not this a brand delivered from 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 And Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and is standing before the messenger.
约书亚穿着污秽的衣服站在使者面前。
4 And he answereth and speaketh unto those standing before him, saying: 'Turn aside the filthy garments from off him.' And he saith unto him, 'See, I have caused thine iniquity to pass away from off thee, so as to clothe thee with costly apparel.'
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 He also said, 'Let them set a pure diadem on his head. And they set the pure diadem on his head, and clothe him with garments. And the messenger of Jehovah is standing,
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 and the messenger of Jehovah doth protest to Joshua, saying:
耶和华的使者告诫约书亚说:
7 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: If in My ways thou dost walk, And if My charge thou dost keep, Then also thou dost judge My house, And also thou dost keep My courts, And I have given to thee conductors among these standing 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, I pray thee, Joshua, the high priest, Thou and thy companions sitting before thee, (For men of type [are] they, ) For lo, I am bringing in My servant — a Shoot.
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 lo, the stone that I put before Joshua, On one stone [are] seven eyes, Lo, I am graving its graving, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, And I have removed 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 — an affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, Ye do call, each unto his neighbour, Unto the place of the vine, And unto the place of 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。”
