Zechariah
Fourth vision: the Messiah comes soon
3
1 He showed me then the high priest Joshua standing before the Angel of Yahweh. At Joshua’s right side stood Satan, ready to accuse him.
2 But the angel of Yahweh said to Satan, “May Yahweh rebuke you, Satan! Yahweh who has chosen Jerusalem – may he rebuke you! Is not this man a burning brand snatched from the fire?”
3 Clad in filthy garments, Joshua stood before the Angel, 4 who said to those in front of him, “Take off his filthy garments.” Then turning to Joshua, he said, “See, I have taken away your guilt. Now I will clothe you with rich gar ments.” 5 He added, “Put a clean turban on his head.” So they put a clean turban on his head and clothed him, as the Angel of Yahweh looked on.
6 The Angel of Yahweh gave Jo shua this assurance,
7 “Listen to this word of Yahweh Sabaoth: ‘If you walk in my ways and heed my charge, you shall rule my house and keep my courts, and I will give you free access among those standing here.
8 Listen further, O high priest Joshua and your associates who join in council with you: I am going to bring my servant the Branch.
9 See, I am setting (before Joshua) a stone with seven eyes. I myself will engrave an inscription on it, and I will remove the guilt of this land in a single day.
10 On that day, you will invite one another under your vines and fig trees.’ This is what Yahweh Sabaoth says.”
