Zechariah 3

1 Then he showed me Joshua, the high priest, standing before the messenger of the Lord and the Adversary standing at his right hand to accuse him.

[第四個神視：撒殫控告耶叔亞大司祭]以後上主使我看見大司祭耶叔亞，站在上主的使者面前，同時撒殫站在耶叔亞右邊控告他。

2 And the messenger of the Lord said to the Adversary, ‘May the Lord rebuke you, Adversary! The Lord, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this man a brand plucked out of the fire?’

上主的使者對撒殫說：「惟願上主責斥你，撒殫! 惟願揀選耶路撒冷的上主責斥你。這不是由火中抽出來的一根木柴嗎﹖﹖」

3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments and was standing before the messenger.

那時耶叔亞身穿污穢的衣服，站在使者的面前。

4 The messenger said to those who stood before him, ‘Take off his filthy garments.’ Then to Joshua he said, ‘I have taken your guilt from you and I will clothe you in priestly robes.’

使者就吩咐那些立在他面前的說：「脫去他身上污穢的衣服! 」以後向他說：「看，我已脫去了你的罪過，給你穿上華麗的禮服。」

5 And he ordered: ‘Set a clean turban upon his head.’ So they set a clean turban on his head, and clothed him with garments. The messenger of the Lord was standing by.

隨後接著吩咐說：「在他頭上纏上一條潔淨的頭巾! 」他們就在他頭上纏上了一條潔淨的頭巾，給他穿上了潔淨的禮服。那時，上主的使者，站在旁邊。

6 And the messenger of the Lord testified to Joshua:

上主的使者便勸耶叔亞說：「

7 The Lord of hosts says: ‘If you walk in my ways, and if you will keep my instructions, then you will rule my house and keep my courts and I will give you a place of access among these that stand by.

萬軍的上主這樣說：如果你遵行我的道路，謹守我的法令，你便可以管理我的家，看守我的庭院；我必要使你在這些等立者中，自由出入。」

8 Hear now, Joshua the high priest, you and your associates who sit before me; for they are men who are a sign; for I am going to bring forth my servant the Branch.

所以，大司祭耶叔亞，你且聽著：你和坐在你面前的同伴都是作預兆的人。攪，我必要使我的僕人「苖芽」生出。

9 On the stone that I have set before Joshua, on one stone, are seven facets. I will engrave it,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘and I will remove the guilt of that land in one day.

看，這是我在耶叔亞面前安置的石頭，在這惟一的石頭上有七隻眼睛；看! 我要親自在石上刻上題名──萬軍上主的斷語──並且要在那一天除去地上的罪過。

10 On that day,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘you will each invite your neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.’

在那一天──萬軍上主的斷語──你們必要互相邀請自己的鄰里，到葡萄樹和無花果樹下。
