1 Et ostendit mihi Dominus Iesum sacerdotem magnum stantem coram angelo Domini: et satan stabat a dextris eius ut adversaretur ei.

And the Lord schewide to me the greet prest Jhesu, stondynge bifore the aungel of the Lord; and Sathan stood on his riythalf, that he schulde be aduersarie to hym.

2 Et dixit Dominus ad satan: Increpet Dominus te Satan: et increpet Dominus te, qui elegit Ierusalem! numquid non iste torris est erutus de igne?

And the Lord seide to Sathan, The Lord blame in thee, Sathan, and the Lord that chees Jerusalem, blame in thee. Whether this is not a deed broond rauyschid fro the fier?

3 Et Iesus erat indutus vestibus sordidis: et stabat ante faciem angeli.

And Jhesus was clothid with foule clothis, and stood bifor the face of the aungel.

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.

Which answeride, and seide to hem that stoden bifor hym, and he seide, Do ye awei foule clothis fro him. And he seide to hym, Lo! Y haue don awei fro thee thi wickidnesse, and Y haue clothid thee with chaungynge clothis.

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 he seide, Putte ye a clene mytre on his heed. And thei puttiden a cleene mytre on his heed, and clothide him with clothis. And the aungel of the Lord stood,

6 Et contestabatur angelus Domini Iesum, dicens:

and the aungel of the Lord witnesside to Jhesu,

7 Haec 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.

and seide, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, If thou schalt go in my weies, and schalt kepe my kepynge, also and thou schalt deme myn hous, and schalt kepe my porchis; and Y schal yyue to thee goeris, of these that now here stonden niy.

8 Audi Iesu sacerdos magne, tu et amici tui, qui habitant coram te, quia viri portendentes sunt. ecce enim ego ADDUCAM SERVUM MEUM ORIENTEM.

Here thou, Jhesu, greet preest, thou and thi frendis that dwellen bifore thee, for thei ben men signefiynge thing to comyng. Lo! sotheli Y schal brynge my seruaunt spryngynge up, ether Crist borun.

9 Quia ecce lapis, quem dedi coram Iesu: super lapidem unum septem oculi sunt: ecce ego celabo sculpturam eius, ait Dominus exercituum: et auferam iniquitatem terrae illius in die una.

For lo! the stoon which Y yaf bifor Jhesu, on o stoon ben seuene iyen; and lo! Y schal graue the grauyng therof, seith the Lord of oostis, and Y schal do a wei the wickidnesse of that lond in o dai.
