Zakaria 3
1 Natoro’e ahy amy zao t’Iehosoa mpisorom-bey nijohañe aolo’ i anjeli’ Iehovày eo, naho i mpañinjey nijagarodoñe an-kavana’e eo hanisý aze.
Then he showed me Joshua, the high priest, standing before the messenger of the Lord and the Adversary standing at his right hand to accuse him.
2 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy mpañinjey: Mañendak’ azo t’Iehovà, ty mpañinje tia. Eka, itrevoha’ Iehovà nijoboñe Ierosalaime; tsy ie hao ty foroa nitsikaoheñ’ añ’afo ao?
And the messenger of the Lord said to the Adversary, ‘May the Lord rebuke you, Adversary! The Lord, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this man a brand plucked out of the fire?’
3 Ie amy zao, nisikin-damba maleotse t’Iehosoa, ie nijohañe añatrefa’ i anjeliy eo.
Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments and was standing before the messenger.
4 Aa le nisaontsie’e amo nijohañe añ’atrefa’eo ty hoe: Korendaho ama’e o lamba malotoo. Le hoe ty nanoe’e: Hehe te nafahako ama’o o hakeo’oo, vaho haombeako saroñe mireparepa.
The messenger said to those who stood before him, ‘Take off his filthy garments.’ Then to Joshua he said, ‘I have taken your guilt from you and I will clothe you in priestly robes.’
5 Le hoe ty asako: Ehe aombeo sabaka mikotritriake ty añambone’e eo, le nisabakae’ iereo ty añambone’e vaho nampisikine’ iareo, le nijohañe ey i anjeli’ Iehovày.
And he ordered: ‘Set a clean turban upon his head.’ So they set a clean turban on his head, and clothed him with garments. The messenger of the Lord was standing by.
6 Hinatahata’ i anjeli’ Iehovày t’Iehosoa ami’ty hoe:
And the messenger of the Lord testified to Joshua:
7 Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Naho añaveloa’o o lalakoo naho ambena’o o andiliakoo, le ho zakae’o i kivohokoy naho halahalae’o o kiririsakoo vaho hampidadaeko amo mijohanjohañe etoañeo.
The Lord of hosts says: ‘If you walk in my ways, and if you will keep my instructions, then you will rule my house and keep my courts and I will give you a place of access among these that stand by.
8 Mijanjiña arè ry Iehosoa mpisorom-bey naho ondaty miambesatse añatrefa’oo; fa toe viloñe ondaty reo; amy te ingo hampionjoneko mb’eo ty Tora-mionjo, mpitoroko.
Hear now, Joshua the high priest, you and your associates who sit before me; for they are men who are a sign; for I am going to bring forth my servant the Branch.
9 Heheke o vato napoko añatrefa’ Iehosoao; maso fito ro ami’ty vato raike; ho sokireko ama’e ty sokitse, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: vaho hahako ami’ty andro raike ty tahi’ i taney.
On the stone that I have set before Joshua, on one stone, are seven facets. I will engrave it,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘and I will remove the guilt of that land in one day.
10 Ie amy andro zay, hoe t’Iehovà, le hifampikanjy an-drañetse ondatio, songa ambane’ ty vahe’e naho ambane’ i sakoa’ey.
On that day,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘you will each invite your neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.’
