ZEḴARYAH 3

1 And he showed me Yahoshua the kohĕn ha’gadol standing before the messenger of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and ha’Satan standing at his right hand to be an adversary to him.

2 And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 said to ha’Satan, “𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 rebuke you, ha’Satan!  𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 who has chosen Yerushalayim rebuke you! Is this not a brand plucked from the fire?”

3 And Yahoshua was dressed in filthy garments, and was standing before the messenger.

4 And He answered and spoke to those who stood before Him, saying, “Remove the filthy garments from him.” And to him He said, “See, I have removed your guilt from you, and shall put costly robes on you.”

5 And I said, “Let them put a clean turban on his head.” Then they put a clean turban on his head, and they put garments on him. And the messenger of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 stood by.

6 And the messenger of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 witnessed to Yahoshua, saying,

7 “Thus said 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts, ‘If you walk in My Ways, and if you guard My duty, then you shall also rule My house, and also guard My courts. And I shall give you access among these standing here.

8 ‘Now listen, Yahoshua the kohĕn ha’gadol, you and your companions who sit before you, for they are men of symbol. For look, I am bringing forth My Servant – the Branch.

9 ‘See the stone which I have put before Yahoshua: on one stone are seven eyes. See, I am engraving its inscription,’ declares 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts, ‘and I shall remove the guilt of that land in one day.

10 ‘In that day,’ declares 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 hosts, ‘you shall invite one another, under the vine and under the fig tree.’ ”
