1
And he shewed me Joshua the highprieststandingbefore the angel of the LORD, and Satan[a]standing at his right hand to resist him.
2
And the LORDsaid unto Satan, The LORDrebuke thee, O Satan; even the LORD that hath chosenJerusalemrebuke thee: is not this a brandplucked out of the fire?
3
Now Joshua was clothed with filthygarments, and stoodbefore the angel.
4
And he answered and spake unto those that stoodbefore him, saying, Take away the filthygarments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.
5
And I said, Let them set a fairmitre upon his head. So they set a fairmitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the LORD stood by.
6
And the angel of the LORDprotested unto Joshua,saying,
7
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge,[b] then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by.
8
Hear now, O Joshua the highpriest, thou, and thy fellows that sitbefore thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
9
For behold the stone that I have laidbeforeJoshua; upon onestone shall be seveneyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in oneday.
10
In that day,saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.
