< Zaccharias Propheta 3 >

1 Et ostendit mihi Dominus Iesum sacerdotem magnum stantem coram angelo Domini: et satan stabat a dextris eius ut adversaretur ei.
And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to accuse him.
2 Et dixit Dominus ad satan: Increpet Dominus in te Satan: et increpet Dominus in te, qui elegit Ierusalem! numquid non iste torris est erutus de igne?
And the LORD said unto Satan: 'The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan, yea, the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee; is not this man a brand plucked out of the fire?'
3 Et Iesus erat indutus vestibus sordidis: et stabat ante faciem angeli.
Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.
4 Qui respondit, et ait ad eos, qui stabant coram se, dicens: Auferte vestimenta sordida ab eo. Et dixit ad eum: Ecce abstuli a te iniquitatem tuam, et indui te mutatoriis.
And he answered and spoke unto those that stood before him, saying: 'Take the filthy garments from off him.' And unto him he said: 'Behold, I cause thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with robes.'
5 Et dixit: Ponite cidarim mundam super caput eius. Et posuerunt cidarim mundam super caput eius, et induerunt eum vestibus: et angelus Domini stabat.
And I said: 'Let them set a fair mitre upon his head.' So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments; and the angel of the LORD stood by.
6 Et contestabatur angelus Domini Iesum, dicens:
And the angel of the LORD forewarned Joshua, saying:
7 Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum: Si in viis meis ambulaveris, et custodiam meam custodieris: tu quoque iudicabis domum meam, et custodies atria mea, et dabo tibi ambulantes de his, qui nunc hic assistunt.
'Thus saith the LORD of hosts: If thou wilt walk in My ways, and if thou wilt keep My charge, and wilt also judge My house, and wilt also keep My courts, then I will give thee free access among these that stand by.
8 Audi Iesu sacerdos magne, tu et amici tui, qui habitant coram te, quia viri portendentes sunt. ecce enim ego ADDUCAM SERVUM MEUM ORIENTEM.
Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou and thy fellows that sit before thee; for they are men that are a sign; for, behold, I will bring forth My servant the Shoot.
9 Quia ecce lapis, quem dedi coram Iesu: super lapidem unum septem oculi sunt: ecce ego cælabo sculpturam eius, ait Dominus exercituum: et auferam iniquitatem terræ illius in die una.
For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone are seven facets; behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts: And I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
10 In die illa, dicit Dominus exercituum, vocabit vir amicum suum subter vitem, et subter ficum.
In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig-tree.
