1
And he let me see Joshua , the high priest, in his place before the angel of the Lord , and the Satan at his right hand ready to take up a cause against him.
2
And the Lord said to the Satan, May the Lord 's word be sharp against you, O Satan, the word of the Lord who has taken Jerusalem for himself: is this not a burning branch pulled out of the fire ?
3
Now Joshua was clothed in unclean robes , and he was in his place before the angel .
4
And he made answer and said to those who were there before him, Take the unclean robes off him, and let him be clothed in clean robes ;
5
And let them put a clean head -dress on his head . So they put a clean head -dress on his head , clothing him with clean robes : and to him he said , See , I have taken your sin away from you.
6
And the angel of the Lord made a statement to Joshua , and said ,
7
These are the words of the Lord of armies : If you will go in my ways and keep what I have put in your care, then you will be judge over my Temple and have the care of my house , and I will give you the right to come in among those who are there.
8
Give ear now, O Joshua , the high priest, you and your friends who are seated before you; for these are men who are a sign: for see , I will let my servant the Branch be seen .
9
For see , the stone which I have put before Joshua ; on one stone are seven eyes : see , the design cut on it will be my work, says the Lord of armies , and I will take away the sin of that land in one day .
10
In that day , says the Lord of armies , you will be one another's guests under the vine and under the fig -tree.
