< Zechariah 3 >

1 And he shewed mee Iehoshua the hie Priest, standing before the Angel of the Lord, and Satan stoode at his right hand to resist him.
Natoro’e ahy amy zao t’Iehosoa mpi­sorom-bey nijohañe aolo’ i anjeli’ Iehovày eo, naho i mpañinjey nija­ga­rodoñe an-ka­vana’e eo hanisý aze.
2 And the Lord said vnto Satan, The Lord reprooue thee, O Satan: euen the Lord that hath chosen Ierusalem, reprooue thee. Is not this a brand taken out of the fire?
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy mpañinjey: Mañendak’ azo t’Iehovà, ty mpañinje tia. Eka, itre­voha’ Iehovà nijoboñe Ierosalaime; tsy foroa nitsikaoheñ’ añ’afo ao hao re?
3 Nowe Iehoshua was clothed with filthie garments, and stoode before the Angel.
Ie amy zao, nisikin-damba maleotse t’Iehosoa, ie nijohañe añatrefa’ i anjeliy eo.
4 And he answered and spake vnto those that stoode before him, saying, Take away the filthie garments from him. And vnto him hee saide, Behold, I haue caused thine iniquitie to depart from thee, and I wil clothe thee with change of raiment.
Aa le nisaontsie’e amo nijohañe añ’atrefa’eo ty hoe: Korendaho ama’e o lamba malotoo. Le hoe ty nanoe’e: Hehe te nafahako ama’o o hakeo’oo, vaho haombeako saroñe mireparepa.
5 And I saide, Let them set a faire diademe vpon his head. So they set a faire diademe vpon his head, and clothed him with garments, and the Angel of the Lord stoode by.
Le hoe ty asako: Ehe aombeo sabaka mikotritriake ty añambone’e eo, le nisabakae’ iereo ty añambone’e vaho nampisikine’ iareo, le nijohañe ey i anjeli’ Iehovày.
6 And the Angel of the Lord testified vnto Iehoshua, saying,
Hinatahata’ i anjeli’ Iehovày t’Iehosoa ami’ty hoe:
7 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, If thou wilt walke in my wayes, and keepe my watch, thou shalt also iudge mine House, and shalt also keepe my courtes, and I will giue thee place among these that stand by.
Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Naho añaveloa’o o lalakoo naho ambena’o o andiliakoo, le ho zakae’o i kivohokoy naho halahalae’o o kiririsakoo vaho hampidadaeko amo mijohanjohañe etoañeo.
8 Heare now, O Iehoshua the hie Priest, thou and thy fellowes that sit before thee: for they are monstruous persons: but behold, I wil bring forth the Branche my seruant.
Mijanjiña arè ry Iehosoa mpisorom-bey naho ondaty miambesatse añatrefa’oo; fa toe viloñe ondaty reo; amy te ingo hampionjoneko mb’eo ty Tora-mionjo, mpitoroko.
9 For loe, the stone that I haue layd before Iehoshua: vpon one stone shalbe seuen eyes: beholde, I will cut out the grauing thereof, saith the Lord of hostes, and I will take away the iniquitie of this land in one day.
Heheke o vato napoko añatrefa’ Iehosoao; maso fito ro ami’ty vato raike; ho sokireko ama’e ty sokitse, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: vaho hahako ami’ty andro raike ty tahi’ i taney.
10 In that day, saith the Lord of hostes, shall ye call euery man his neighbour vnder the vine, and vnder the figge tree.
Ie amy andro zay, hoe t’Iehovà, le hifampikanjy an-drañetse ondatio, songa ambane’ ty vahe’e naho ambane’ i sakoa’ey.
