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.

You and your companions who sit before you,
For they are ^a¹a wondrous sign;
For behold, I am bringing forth ^bMy Servant the ^cBRANCH.
