Cakarijas 3

1 Un viņš man rādīja augsto priesteri Jozua, stāvam Tā Kunga eņģeļa priekšā. Un sātans stāvēja viņam pa labo roku, viņu apsūdzēt.

Then the Lord showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing on his right accusing him.

2 Bet Tas Kungs sacīja uz sātanu: lai Tas Kungs tevi rāj, sātan: lai tevi rāj Tas Kungs, kas Jeruzālemi izredzējis! Vai šī nav pagale, no uguns izrauta?

And the Lord said to Satan, “The Lord rebukes you Satan. I, the Lord who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you. Isn't he like a half-burned stick snatched from the fire?”

3 Un Jozuas bija apģērbts netīrās drēbēs, kad viņš stāvēja tā eņģeļa priekšā.

Joshua was wearing filthy clothes as he stood in front of the angel.

4 Tad viņš (tas eņģelis) atbildēja un runāja uz tiem, kas viņa priekšā stāvēja, un sacīja: atņemiet tam tās netīrās drēbes. Un viņš uz to sacīja: redzi, tavu noziegumu es tev esmu atņēmis, un tevi apģērbšu ar svētku drēbēm.

The angel said to those standing there, “Take off his filthy clothes.” Then he said to Joshua, “See how I have taken away your sins from you, and now I am dressing you with fine clothes.”

5 Un es sacīju: lai liek tīru cepuri viņam galvā. Un tie tam lika tīru cepuri galvā un tam apvilka drēbes, un Tā Kunga eņģelis stāvēja tur klāt.

Then I said, “Wrap a clean turban around his head.” So they wrapped a clean turban around his head and put the clothes on him while the angel of the Lord stood there.

6 Tad Tā Kunga eņģelis Jozuam apliecināja un sacīja:

Then the angel of the Lord solemnly advised Joshua, saying,

7 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: ja tu staigāsi Manos ceļos un sargāsi Manu likumu, tad tev arī Manu namu būs tiesāt un arī Manus pagalmus sargāt, un Es tev došu pieiešanu to starpā, kas te stāv.

“This is what the Lord Almighty says: If you follow my ways and observe my commands, then you will govern my Temple and its courtyards. I will allow you to walk among those standing here.

8 Klausies nu jel, Jozua, augstais priesteri, tu un tavi draugi, kas tavā priekšā, jo tie ir par brīnuma zīmi. Jo redzi, Es likšu nākt Savam kalpam Cemak (Atvasei).

Pay attention, high priest Joshua and all your fellow-priests that you teach! You are a sign of good things to come. Look! I am going to bring my servant, the Branch.

9 Jo redzi to akmeni, ko Es Jozuas priekšā esmu nolicis! Uz to vienu akmeni (skatās) septiņas acis. Redzi, Es ierakstīšu viņa rakstu, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, un atņemšu šās zemes noziegumu vienā dienā.

See that I have placed a precious stone in front of Joshua, a single stone with seven faces. Watch, for I myself am going to engrave seven eyes on it, declares the Lord Almighty, and I will wipe away the sins of this land in a single day.

10 Tai dienā, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, jūs aicināsiet cits citu apakš vīna koka un apakš vīģes koka.

On that day everyone will invite their friends to sit in peace under their vines and fig trees, says the Lord Almighty.”
