Cakarijas 3

1 Un viņš man rādīja augsto priesteri Jozua, stāvam Tā Kunga eņģeļa priekšā. Un sātans stāvēja viņam pa labo roku, viņu apsūdzēt.

Then [Yahweh] showed me Joshua, the Supreme Priest, [who was] standing in front of the angel that Yahweh had sent. And Satan was standing at Joshua’s right side, [ready] to accuse him.

2 Bet Tas Kungs sacīja uz sātanu: lai Tas Kungs tevi rāj, sātan: lai tevi rāj Tas Kungs, kas Jeruzālemi izredzējis! Vai šī nav pagale, no uguns izrauta?

But Yahweh said to Satan, “Satan, I am rebuking you! I [am the one] who has chosen Jerusalem [to be my special city, and I] am rebuking you! This [man, Joshua], [has been brought back from Babylonia]; he is surely [like] [MET, RHQ] a burning stick that has been snatched from a fire.”

3 Un Jozuas bija apģērbts netīrās drēbēs, kad viņš stāvēja tā eņģeļa priekšā.

Joshua was wearing filthy clothes while he was standing in front of the angel.

4 Tad viņš (tas eņģelis) atbildēja un runāja uz tiem, kas viņa priekšā stāvēja, un sacīja: atņemiet tam tās netīrās drēbes. Un viņš uz to sacīja: redzi, tavu noziegumu es tev esmu atņēmis, un tevi apģērbšu ar svētku drēbēm.

The angel said to those [other angels] who were standing in front of him, “Take off his filthy clothes!” [After they did that, ] the angel said to Joshua, “Look! I have taken away [the guilt of] your sins, and I will put beautiful clothes on you.”

5 Un es sacīju: lai liek tīru cepuri viņam galvā. Un tie tam lika tīru cepuri galvā un tam apvilka drēbes, un Tā Kunga eņģelis stāvēja tur klāt.

Then I said to them, “Put a clean turban on his head!” So they put a clean turban on his head and put [new] on him, while the angel sent by Yahweh was standing there.

6 Tad Tā Kunga eņģelis Jozuam apliecināja un sacīja:

Then the angel said [this] to Joshua:

7 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: ja tu staigāsi Manos ceļos un sargāsi Manu likumu, tad tev arī Manu namu būs tiesāt un arī Manus pagalmus sargāt, un Es tev došu pieiešanu to starpā, kas te stāv.

“The Commander of the armies of angels says that if you do what I want you to do [IDM], and obey my instructions, you will (be in charge of/have authority over) [what is done in] my temple and its courtyard. And I will allow you to speak at any time to the angels who are standing near to me.

8 Klausies nu jel, Jozua, augstais priesteri, tu un tavi draugi, kas tavā priekšā, jo tie ir par brīnuma zīmi. Jo redzi, Es likšu nākt Savam kalpam Cemak (Atvasei).

Joshua, [you are] the Supreme Priest, and your (associates/fellow priests) are sitting in front of you. They symbolize/represent things that will happen in the future. [Some day] I am going to bring someone who will work for me, someone who will be called the Branch.

9 Jo redzi to akmeni, ko Es Jozuas priekšā esmu nolicis! Uz to vienu akmeni (skatās) septiņas acis. Redzi, Es ierakstīšu viņa rakstu, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, un atņemšu šās zemes noziegumu vienā dienā.

Look at the stone that I have put in front of Joshua. There are seven sides on the stone. I will engrave a message on that stone, and in one day I will remove the guilt of [all the people of] this country.

10 Tai dienā, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, jūs aicināsiet cits citu apakš vīna koka un apakš vīģes koka.

At that time, each of you will invite his friends [to come and sit] under his grapevine and under his fig tree. [That is what] the Commander of the armies of angels declares.”
