The Coming Branch
‘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.
That I have laid before Joshua:
aUpon the stone are bseven eyes.
Behold, I will engrave its inscription,’
Says the Lord of hosts,
‘And cI will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
‘Everyone will invite his neighbor
bUnder his vine and under his fig tree.’ ”
