Zechariah 3
1 He showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the LORD’s angel, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA puencawn hmai kah aka pai khosoih puei Joshua te kai n'tueng. Te vaengah Satan tah anih te khingkhoek hamla a bantang ah pai.
2 The LORD said to Satan, “The LORD rebuke you, Satan! Yes, the LORD who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn’t this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?”
BOEIPA loh Satan te, “BOEIPA loh, Satan nang te n'tluung saeh, Jerusalem aka coelh BOEIPA loh nang te n'tluung pai saeh. Hmaipok he hmai lamloh a huul moenih nama?,” a ti nah.
3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the angel.
Te vaengah Joshua kah himbai pueinak te a khawthaw la om tih puencawn mikhmuh ah pai.
4 He answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, “Take the filthy garments off him.” To him he said, “Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich clothing.”
Te dongah a mikhmuh ah aka pai te a doo tih a voek phoeiah, “A pum dong lamkah himbai a khawthaw te dul laeh,” a ti nah. Te daengah Joshua te, “So lah, Namah kah thaesainah te na pum dong lamloh kan dul tih nang te boeimanghni kam bai sak,” a ti nah.
5 I said, “Let them set a clean turban on his head.” So they set a clean turban on his head, and clothed him; and the LORD’s angel was standing by.
Te phoeiah, “A lu ah lupong cim muei sak uh,” ka ti nah. Te dongah lupong cim te a lu ah a muei sakuh. Anih te himbai a bai sak uh vaengah BOEIPA kah puencawn pai.
6 The LORD’s angel solemnly assured Joshua, saying,
Te phoeiah BOEIPA puencawn loh Joshua te a rhalrhing sak tih,
7 “The LORD of Hosts says: ‘If you will walk in my ways, and if you will follow my instructions, then you also shall judge my house, and shall also keep my courts, and I will give you a place of access amongst these who stand by.
“Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Ka longpuei ah na pongpa atah, ka kuek te na tuem atah, nang long khaw kai imkhui te na lai na tloek pah vetih ka vongup te na dawndah bal ni. Te daengah ni aka pai rhoek lakli ah nang hamla caehlong kang khueh eh.
8 Hear now, Joshua the high priest, you and your fellows who sit before you, for they are men who are a sign; for, behold, I will bring out my servant, the Branch.
Khosoih puei Joshua aw, namah neh na mikhmuh kah kho aka sa na hui loh hnatun uh laeh. Amih tah kopoekrhai hlang rhoek ni. Kai loh ka sal he cangdueng lam ni kang khuen ngawn ne.
9 For, behold, the stone that I have set before Joshua: on one stone are seven eyes; behold, I will engrave its inscription,’ says the LORD of Hosts, ‘and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
Joshua mikhmuh ah lungto ka tloeng ngawn coeng ne. Lungto pakhat dongah mik parhih om tih a thingthuk khaw ka thuk coeng ne. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Te dongah he diklai kah thaesainah he hnin at ah ka khum sak ni.
10 In that day,’ says the LORD of Hosts, ‘you will invite every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.’”
He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Te khohnin ah tah hlang loh a hui te misur hmui neh thaibu hmui la na khue uh ni,” a ti nah.
