< Zechariah 3 >

1 And the Lord schewide to me the greet prest Jhesu, stondynge bifore the aungel of the Lord; and Sathan stood on his riythalf, that he schulde be aduersarie to hym.
Mgbe ahụ, o gosiri m Joshua onyeisi nchụaja ka ọ na-eguzo nʼihu mmụọ ozi nke Onyenwe anyị, na ekwensu ka ọ na-eguzo nʼaka nri ya ibo ya ebubo.
2 And the Lord seide to Sathan, The Lord blame in thee, Sathan, and the Lord that chees Jerusalem, blame in thee. Whether this is not a deed broond rauyschid fro the fier?
Onyenwe anyị sịrị ekwensu, “Onyenwe anyị basiere gị mba ike, gị ekwensu. Onyenwe anyị, onye họpụtara Jerusalem, basiere gị mba ike. Nwoke a, ọ bụghị ọlọkọ ọkụ na-ere ere, nke e si nʼime ọkụ gụpụta?”
3 And Jhesus was clothid with foule clothis, and stood bifor the face of the aungel.
Mgbe Joshua guzo nʼihu mmụọ ozi ahụ, uwe ya ruru unyi.
4 Which answeride, and seide to hem that stoden bifor hym, and he seide, Do ye awei foule clothis fro him. And he seide to hym, Lo! Y haue don awei fro thee thi wickidnesse, and Y haue clothid thee with chaungynge clothis.
Mmụọ ozi ahụ gwara ndị ahụ guzo ya nʼihu, “Yipụnụ ya uwe a ruru unyi.” Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara ya okwu sị, “Lee, ewepụla m mmehie gị, ma ugbu a, aga m eyikwasị gị uwe mmemme ndị a.”
5 And he seide, Putte ye a clene mytre on his heed. And thei puttiden a cleene mytre on his heed, and clothide him with clothis. And the aungel of the Lord stood,
Ekwuru m, “Ka ha were ezi akwa okike dị ọcha kee ya nʼisi.” Ya mere ha weere akwa okike dị ọcha kee ya nʼisi, yikwasịkwa ya uwe ọhụrụ. Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị guzokwa nʼebe ahụ.
6 and the aungel of the Lord witnesside to Jhesu,
Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi nke Onyenwe anyị nyere Joshua ndụmọdụ sị,
7 and seide, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, If thou schalt go in my weies, and schalt kepe my kepynge, also and thou schalt deme myn hous, and schalt kepe my porchis; and Y schal yyue to thee goeris, of these that now here stonden niy.
“Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru, ‘Ọ bụrụ na i jee ije nʼụzọ m niile, ọ bụrụkwa na i debe ihe niile m nyere gị nʼiwu, ị ga-abụ onyeisi ezinaụlọ m, ị ga-elekọta ụlọnsọ m anya, aga m enyekwa gị ọnọdụ nʼetiti ndị a niile guzo nʼebe a.
8 Here thou, Jhesu, greet preest, thou and thi frendis that dwellen bifore thee, for thei ben men signefiynge thing to comyng. Lo! sotheli Y schal brynge my seruaunt spryngynge up, ether Crist borun.
“‘Gee m ntị, gị Joshua, onyeisi nchụaja na unu ndị nchụaja ndị ọzọ nọ nʼihu gị, ndị bụ ihe ngosi banyere ihe ọma niile nke gaje ịbịa. Agaje m ịkpọta nwaodibo m, onye bụ Ngalaba ahụ.
9 For lo! the stoon which Y yaf bifor Jhesu, on o stoon ben seuene iyen; and lo! Y schal graue the grauyng therof, seith the Lord of oostis, and Y schal do a wei the wickidnesse of that lond in o dai.
Lee, nkume nke m guzobere nʼihu Joshua. Nkume ahụ nwere akụkụ asaa nʼahụ ya, aga m egbunye akara dee ihe nʼelu ya. Aga m ewezugakwa mmehie nke ala a nʼotu ụbọchị.’ Ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru.
10 In that dai, seith the Lord of oostis, a man schal clepe his frend vndur a vyn tre, and vndur a fige tre.
“‘Nʼụbọchị ahụ, onye ọbụla nʼime unu ga-akpọbata mmadụ ibe ya, ka ọ bịa soro ya nọdụ nʼokpuru osisi vaịnị ya, na nʼokpuru osisi fiig ya.’ Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwubiri ya.”
