| 1 And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel
of Jehovah, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.
2 And Jehovah said unto Satan, Jehovah rebuke thee, O Satan; yea, Jehovah
that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of
the fire? 3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing
before the angel. 4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before
him, saying, Take the filthy garments from off him. And unto him he said,
Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe
thee with rich apparel. 5 And I said, Let them set a clean mitre upon his
head. So they set a clean mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments;
and the angel of Jehovah was standing by. 6 And the angel of Jehovah
protested unto Joshua, saying, 7 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: If thou wilt
walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou also shalt judge
my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee a place of
access among these that stand by. 8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest,
thou and thy fellows that sit before thee; for they are men that are a sign:
for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the Branch. 9 For, behold, the
stone that I have set before Joshua; upon one stone are seven eyes: behold, I
will engrave the graving thereof, saith Jehovah of hosts, and I will remove
the iniquity of that land in one day. 10 In that day, saith Jehovah of
hosts, shall ye invite every man his neighbor under the vine and under the
fig-tree.
