< Zechariah 3 >

1 And the Lord shewed me Jesus the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord: and Satan stood on his right hand to be his adversary.
Konsa, li te montre mwen Josué, wo prèt ki te kanpe devan zanj SENYÈ a, ak Satan ki te kanpe sou men dwat li pou akize li.
2 And the Lord said to Satan: The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan: and the Lord that chose Jerusalem rebuke thee: Is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?
SENYÈ a te di a Satan: “SENYÈ a repwoche ou, Satan! Anverite, SENYÈ ki te chwazi Jérusalem nan va repwoche ou! Èske sa se pa yon bout bwa cho ki retire soti nan dife?”
3 And Jesus was clothed with filthy garments: and he stood before the face of the angel.
Alò, Josué te abiye ak rad sal, e te kanpe devan zanj lan.
4 Who answered, and said to them that stood before him, saying: Take away the filthy garments from him. And he said to him: Behold I have taken away thy iniquity, and have clothed thee with change of garments.
Li te pale, e te di a sila ki te kanpe devan l yo: “Retire rad sal yo sou li.” A li menm Li te di, “Gade byen, Mwen te retire inikite sou ou, e Mwen va abiye ou ak vètman byen chè.”
5 And he said: Put a clean mitre upon his head: and they put a clean mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments, and the angel of the Lord stood.
Mwen te di: “Kite yo mete yon tiban pwòp sou tèt li.” Konsa, yo te mete yon tiban pwòp sou tèt li, e yo te abiye li. Zanj SENYÈ a te kanpe sou kote.
6 And the angel of the Lord protested to Jesus, saying:
Zanj SENYÈ a ak vwa solanèl te asire Josué. Li te di:
7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: If thou wilt walk in my ways, and Beep my charge, thou also shalt judge my house, and shalt keep my courts, and I will give thee some of them that are now present here to walk with thee.
“Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: ‘Si ou va mache nan chemen Mwen yo, si ou va fè sèvis Mwen, alò, ou va osi gouvène lakay Mwen an. Ou va osi gadyen lakou Mwen an, e ou va gen lib aksè pami tout sila ki kanpe la yo.
8 Hear, O Jesus thou high priest, then and thy friends that dwell before thee, for they are portending men: for behold I WILL BRING MY SERVANT THE ORIENT.
Alò koute, Josué, wo prèt la, ou menm ak zanmi ki chita devan ou yo—anverite, yo se moun ki sèvi kon yon sign. Paske gade byen, Mwen va fè parèt sèvitè Mwen an Scion an.
9 For behold the stone that I have laid before Jesus: upon one stone there are seven eyes: behold I will grave the graving thereof, saith the Lord of hosts: and I will take away the iniquity of that land in one day.
Paske gade byen, wòch ke Mwen te plase devan Josué a; sou yon sèl wòch, gen sèt zye. Gade byen, men mo a, Mwen va fè grave sou li,’ deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo. ‘Epi Mwen va retire inikite a peyi sa a nan yon sèl jou.
10 In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, every man shell call his friend under the vine and under the fig tree.
Nan jou sa a,’ deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo: ‘nou chak va envite vwazen nou yo pou vin chita anba pye rezen an ak anba pye fig pa nou.’”
