Vision of the High Priest
1 Then he showed me aJoshua the high priest standing before the Angel of the Lord, and bSatan standing at his right hand to oppose him.
2 And the Lord said to Satan, a“The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord who bhas chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! cIs this not a brand plucked from the fire?”
3 Now Joshua was clothed with afilthy garments, and was standing before the Angel.
4 Then He answered and spoke to those who stood before Him, saying, “Take away the filthy garments from him.” And to him He said, “See, I have removed your iniquity from you, aand I will clothe you with rich robes.”
5 And I said, “Let them put a clean aturban on his head.” So they put a clean turban on his head, and they put the clothes on him. And the Angel of the Lord stood by.
The Coming Branch
6 Then the Angel of the Lord admonished Joshua, saying,
7 “Thus says the Lord of hosts:
‘If you will walk in My ways,
And if you will akeep My command,
Then you shall also bjudge My house,
And likewise have charge of My courts;
I will give you places to walk
Among these who cstand here.
‘If you will walk in My ways,
And if you will akeep My command,
Then you shall also bjudge My house,
And likewise have charge of My courts;
I will give you places to walk
Among these who cstand here.
8 ‘Hear, O Joshua, the high priest,
You and your companions who sit before you,
For they are a1a wondrous sign;
For behold, I am bringing forth bMy Servant the cBRANCH.
You and your companions who sit before you,
For they are a1a wondrous sign;
For behold, I am bringing forth bMy Servant the cBRANCH.
