1 Mgbe ahụ, o gosiri m Joshua onyeisi nchụaja ka ọ na-eguzo nʼihu mmụọ ozi nke Onyenwe anyị, na ekwensu ka ọ na-eguzo nʼaka nri ya ibo ya ebubo.
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.
2 Onyenwe anyị sịrị ekwensu, “Onyenwe anyị basiere gị mba ike, gị ekwensu. Onyenwe anyị, onye họpụtara Jerusalem, basiere gị mba ike. Nwoke a, ọ bụghị ọlọkọ ọkụ na-ere ere, nke e si nʼime ọkụ gụpụta?”
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.
3 Mgbe Joshua guzo nʼihu mmụọ ozi ahụ, uwe ya ruru unyi.
And Joshua he was clothed garments filthy and standing before the angel.
4 Mmụọ ozi ahụ gwara ndị ahụ guzo ya nʼihu, “Yipụnụ ya uwe a ruru unyi.” Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara ya okwu sị, “Lee, ewepụla m mmehie gị, ma ugbu a, aga m eyikwasị gị uwe mmemme ndị a.”
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.
5 Ekwuru m, “Ka ha were ezi akwa okike dị ọcha kee ya nʼisi.” Ya mere ha weere akwa okike dị ọcha kee ya nʼisi, yikwasịkwa ya uwe ọhụrụ. Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị guzokwa nʼebe ahụ.
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.
6 Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi nke Onyenwe anyị nyere Joshua ndụmọdụ sị,
And he admonished [the] angel of Yahweh Joshua saying.
7 “Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru, ‘Ọ bụrụ na i jee ije nʼụzọ m niile, ọ bụrụkwa na i debe ihe niile m nyere gị nʼiwu, ị ga-abụ onyeisi ezinaụlọ m, ị ga-elekọta ụlọnsọ m anya, aga m enyekwa gị ọnọdụ nʼetiti ndị a niile guzo nʼebe a.
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.
8 “‘Gee m ntị, gị Joshua, onyeisi nchụaja na unu ndị nchụaja ndị ọzọ nọ nʼihu gị, ndị bụ ihe ngosi banyere ihe ọma niile nke gaje ịbịa. Agaje m ịkpọta nwaodibo m, onye bụ Ngalaba ahụ.
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.
9 Lee, nkume nke m guzobere nʼihu Joshua. Nkume ahụ nwere akụkụ asaa nʼahụ ya, aga m egbunye akara dee ihe nʼelu ya. Aga m ewezugakwa mmehie nke ala a nʼotu ụbọchị.’ Ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru.
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.
10 “‘Nʼụbọchị ahụ, onye ọbụla nʼime unu ga-akpọbata mmadụ ibe ya, ka ọ bịa soro ya nọdụ nʼokpuru osisi vaịnị ya, na nʼokpuru osisi fiig ya.’ Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwubiri ya.”
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.
