Zechariah 3
1 In sie pac aruruma LEUM GOD El ikasla nu sik ac nga liye Mwet Tol Fulat Joshua el tu ye mutun lipufan lun LEUM GOD. Ac Satan el tu layen layot sel Joshua, akola in sruk sie mwe tukak in lainul.
And he showed me Joshua, the high-priest, standing before the angel of Jehovah, and the adversary standing at his right hand, to accuse him.
2 Na lipufan lun LEUM GOD fahk nu sel Satan, “Lela LEUM GOD Elan fahkot lah kom pa koluk, Satan! Lela LEUM GOD, su lungse Jerusalem, Elan arulana lain kom. Mwet se inge oana sie polosak ma tulakinyukla liki e uh.”
And Jehovah said to the adversary: — Jehovah rebuke thee, thou adversary, Even Jehovah, who hath chosen Jerusalem, rebuke thee! Is not this man a brand plucked out of the fire?
3 Joshua el tu insac, nukum nuknuk na fohkfok.
Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.
4 Lipufan sac fahk nu selos su kulansap lal inkusrao, “Sarukla nuknuk fohkfok ma mwet se inge nukum uh.” Na el fahk nu sel Joshua, “Nga eisla tari ma koluk lom, ac nga fah sot nu sum nuknuk sasu kom in nokomang.”
And he [[the angel]] spake and said to them [[the angels]] that stood before him, saying, Take off the filthy garments from him. And to him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and will clothe thee with goodly apparel.
5 Na el sapkin mwet ma kulansap nu sel uh in filiya sie susu nasnas fin sifal Joshua. Elos orala oana ke el fahk, na elos filiya nuknuk sasu facl ke lipufan se lun LEUM GOD srakna tu insac.
And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head! And they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of Jehovah stood by.
6 Na lipufan sac fahk nu sel Joshua lah
And the angel of Jehovah declared to Joshua and said:
7 LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk: “Kom fin akos na ma sap luk ac oru kunokon ma nga srisrngi kom nu kac, na kom ac fah srakna leum fin mwet karingin Tempul luk ac kalkal kac uh, ac nga ac fah porongo pre lom, oana ke nga porongo pac pre lun lipufan su tu ye mutuk.
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: If thou wilt walk in my ways, And if thou wilt keep my charge, Then thou shalt also rule my house, And shalt also keep my courts, And I will give thee guides among these that stand by.
8 Ke ma inge Joshua, kom su Mwet Tol Fulat, oayapa kowos su mwet tol wial, su mwe akul lun pacl wo ma ac fah tuku, kowos in porongo: nga fah akkalemye mwet kulansap luk, su pangpang Lesak!
Hear now, O Joshua, high-priest, Thou and thy companions, who sit before thee! For they are men that are signs. For, behold, I will cause to come my servant, the Branch.
9 Nga ac filiya ye mutal Joshua sie eot su oasr siska itkosr kac. Nga fah kihlisya sie sim fac, ac in len sefanna nga fah eisla ma koluk lun facl se inge.
For, behold, the stone which I have laid before Joshua, Upon this one stone shall be seven eyes; Behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith Jehovah of hosts; And I will remove the iniquity of this land in one day.
10 Ke len sac ac mau tuku, kais sie suwos ac fah suli mwet tulan lal in tuku wi engankin moul in misla, rauniyukla ke ima in grape ac sak fig sunowos.”
In that day, saith Jehovah of hosts, Shall ye invite every one his neighbor Under the vine and under the fig-tree.
