3:1 And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the
angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to
resist him.
3:2 And the LORD said to Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan;
even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: [is] not
this a brand plucked out of the fire?
3:3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood
before the angel.
3:4 And he answered and spoke to those that stood before him,
saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And to him he
said, Behold, I have caused thy iniquity to pass from thee, and
I will clothe thee with change of raiment.
3:5 And I said, Let them set a fair miter upon his head. So they
set a fair miter upon his head, and clothed him with garments.
And the angel of the LORD stood by.
3:6 And the angel of the LORD protested to Joshua, saying,
3:7 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways,
and if thou wilt keep my charge, 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.
3:8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou and thy fellows
that sit before thee: for they [are] men wondered at: for
behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
3:9 For behold, the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon
one stone [shall be] seven eyes; behold, I will engrave the
graving of it saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the
iniquity of that land in one day.
3:10 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every
man his neighbor under the vine and under the fig-tree.
