Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the
angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to accuse
him. And the LORD said to Satan, “The LORD rebuke you, O Satan! The
LORD who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Is not this a brand
plucked from the fire?” Now Joshua was standing before the angel,
clothed with filthy garments. And the angel said to those who were
standing before him, “Remove the filthy garments from him.” And to
him he said, “Behold, I have taken your iniquity away from you, and
I will clothe you with pure vestments.” And I said, “Let them put a
clean turban on his head.” So they put a clean turban on his head
and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the LORD was
standing by.
And the angel of the LORD solemnly assured Joshua, “Thus says the
LORD of hosts: If you will walk in my ways and keep my charge, then
you shall rule my house and have charge of my courts, and I will
give you the right of access among those who are standing here.
Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, you and your friends who sit
before you, for they are men who are a sign: behold, I will bring
my servant the Branch. For behold, on the stone that I have set
before Joshua, on a single stone with seven eyes, I will engrave
its inscription, declares the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the
iniquity of this land in a single day. In that day, declares the
LORD of hosts, every one of you will invite his neighbor to come
under his vine and under his fig tree.”
