< Zekkaliya 3 >

1 Awo n’anjolesa Yoswa, kabona asinga obukulu, ng’ayimiridde mu maaso ga malayika wa Mukama, ne Setaani ng’ayimiridde ku mukono gwe ogwa ddyo okumulumiriza.
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 Mukama n’agamba Setaani nti, “Mukama akunenye ggwe Setaani, weewaawo Mukama eyeerondedde Yerusaalemi akunenye! Omusajja ono si kisiki ekyaka ekigibbwa mu muliro?”
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 Awo Yoswa yali ayimiridde mu maaso ga malayika ng’ayambadde ebyambalo ebijjudde ekko.
And Joshua he was clothed garments filthy and standing before the angel.
4 Malayika n’agamba abaali bayimiridde mu maaso ge nti, “Mumwambulemu ebyambalo bye ebijjudde ekko.” N’agamba Yoswa nti, “Laba nkuggyeeko ekibi kyo, era nnaakwambaza ebyambalo eby’omuwendo.”
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 Ne njogera nti, “Mumusibe ekiremba ekitukula ku mutwe gwe.” Awo ne bamusiba ekiremba ekitukula ku mutwe, ne bamwambaza n’engoye, nga malayika wa Mukama ayimiridde awo.
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 Malayika wa Mukama n’akuutira nnyo Yoswa ng’ayogera nti,
And he admonished [the] angel of Yahweh Joshua saying.
7 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye nti, ‘Bw’onootambuliranga mu makubo gange, era noonywezanga bye nkukuutira, kale, onoofuganga ennyumba yange era onoolamulanga mu mbuga zange, era ndikuwa ekifo obeere mu abo abayimiridde wano.
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 “‘Kale wulira, Yoswa kabona asinga obukulu, ggwe ne banno abatuula mu maaso go, abantu kw’otegeerera eby’omu maaso, laba ndireeta omuweereza wange, ye Ttabi.
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 Kubanga laba, ku jjinja lye ntadde mu maaso ga Yoswa, ku jjinja erimu eririna amaaso omusanvu, laba nditeekako ebiwandiiko,’ bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye. ‘Mu lunaku lumu ndiggyawo ekibi ky’ensi eno.
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 “‘Ku lunaku luli, buli omu ku mmwe, aliyita muliraanwa we okutuulako wansi w’omuzabbibu gwe ne wansi w’omutiini gwe,’ bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye.”
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.
