Capítulo 3

1 - Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan Hebrew [satan] means [adversary]. standing at his right side to accuse him.

2 - The Lord said to Satan, "The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this man a burning stick snatched from the fire?"

3 - Now Joshua was dressed in filthy clothes as he stood before the angel.

4 - The angel said to those who were standing before him, "Take off his filthy clothes." Then he said to Joshua, "See, I have taken away your sin, and I will put fine garments on you."

5 - Then I said, "Put a clean turban on his head." So they put a clean turban on his head and clothed him, while the angel of the Lord stood by.

6 - The angel of the Lord gave this charge to Joshua:

7 - "This is what the Lord Almighty says: 'If you will walk in obedience to me and keep my requirements, then you will govern my house and have charge of my courts, and I will give you a place among these standing here.

8 - "'Listen, High Priest Joshua, you and your associates seated before you, who are men symbolic of things to come: I am going to bring my servant, the Branch.

9 - See, the stone I have set in front of Joshua! There are seven eyes Or [facets] on that one stone, and I will engrave an inscription on it,' says the Lord Almighty, 'and I will remove the sin of this land in a single day.

10 - "'In that day each of you will invite your neighbor to sit under your vine and fig tree,' declares the Lord Almighty."
