< Zakariya 3 >

1 Sa’an nan ya nuna mini Yoshuwa babban firist a tsaye a gaban mala’ikan Ubangiji, Shaiɗan kuma yana tsaye a damansa don yă tuhume shi.
And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the agent of Jehovah, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.
2 Ubangiji ya ce wa Shaiɗan, “Ubangiji ya tsawata maka, Shaiɗan! Ubangiji wanda ya zaɓi Urushalima, ya tsawata maka! Ashe, mutumin nan ba shi ne sandar da take ƙonewa da aka ciro daga cikin wuta ba?”
And Jehovah said to Satan, Jehovah rebuke thee, O Satan. Yea, Jehovah who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee. Is this not a brand plucked out of the fire?
3 Yanzu an sa wa Yoshuwa tufafi masu dauda sa’ad da yake tsaye a gaban mala’ikan.
Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the agent.
4 Mala’ikan ya ce wa waɗanda suke tsaye a gabansa, “Ku cire masa tufafinsa masu dauda.” Sai ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Duba, na ɗauke zunubanka, zan sa maka tufafi masu tsada.”
And he answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, Take the filthy garments from off him. And to him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with rich apparel.
5 Sai na ce, “Sa masa rawani mai tsabta a kansa.” Aka sa masa rawani mai tsabta a kansa aka kuma sa masa tufafi yayinda mala’ikan Ubangiji yake tsaye a wurin.
And I said, Let them set a clean miter upon his head. So they set a clean miter upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the agent of Jehovah was standing by.
6 Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya yi wa Yoshuwa wannan gargaɗi.
And the agent of Jehovah testified to Joshua, saying,
7 “Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, ‘In za ka yi tafiya a hanyoyina ka kuma kiyaye abubuwan da nake so, za ka zama shugaban haikalina, ka kuma lura da ɗakunan shari’ata, zan kuma ba ka wuri cikin waɗannan da suke tsaye a nan.
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: If thou will walk in my ways, and if thou will keep my charge, then thou also shall judge my house, and shall also keep my courts, and I will give thee a place of access among these who stand by.
8 “‘Ka saurara, ya babban firist Yoshuwa, kai da abokanka da suke zaune a gabanka, ku da kuke alamun abubuwan da za su zo. Zan kawo bawana, wanda yake Reshe.
Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou and thy fellows who sit before thee, for they are men who are a sign. For, behold, I will bring forth my servant the Branch.
9 Dubi dutsen da na ajiye a gaban Yoshuwa! Akwai idanu bakwai a kan wannan dutse guda, zan kuma yi rubutu a kansa,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, ‘zan kuma kawar da zunubin ƙasan nan a rana ɗaya.
For, behold, the stone that I have set before Joshua. Upon one stone are seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave the graving of it, says Jehovah of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
10 “‘A wannan rana kowannenku zai gayyaci maƙwabcinsa yă zauna a ƙarƙashin itacen inabi da kuma na ɓaure,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.”
In that day, says Jehovah of hosts, ye shall invite each man his neighbor under the vine and under the fig tree.
