3 Revised Standard Version BHS Hebrew Text Reference
3:1Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to accuse him. וַיַּרְאֵנִי אֶת־יְהֹושֻׁעַ הַכֹּהֵן הַגָּדֹול עֹמֵד לִפְנֵי מַלְאַךְ יְהוָה וְהַשָּׂטָן עֹמֵד עַל־יְמִינֹו לְשִׂטְנֹו׃ The vision of the High-priest. Zch.3.1-10
2And 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?" וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל־הַשָּׂטָן יִגְעַר יְהוָה בְּךָ הַשָּׂטָן וְיִגְעַר יְהוָה בְּךָ הַבֹּחֵר בִּירוּשָׁלִָם הֲלֹוא זֶה אוּד מֻצָּל מֵאֵשׁ׃  
3Now Joshua was standing before the angel, clothed with filthy garments. וִיהֹושֻׁעַ הָיָה לָבֻשׁ בְּגָדִים צֹואִים וְעֹמֵד לִפְנֵי הַמַּלְאָךְ׃  
4And 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 rich apparel." וַיַּעַן וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל־הָעֹמְדִימ לְפָנָיו לֵאמֹר הָסִירוּ הַבְּגָדִים הַצֹּאִים מֵעָלָיו וַיֹּאמֶר 
5And 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. וָאֹמַר יָשִׂימוּ צָנִיף טָהֹור עַל־רֹאשֹׁו וַיָּשִׂימוּ הַצָּנִיף הַטָּהֹור עַל־רֹאשֹׁו וַיַּלְבִּשֻׁהוּ בְּגָדִים וּמַלְאַךְ יְהוָה עֹמֵד׃  
6And the angel of the LORD enjoined Joshua, וַיָּעַד מַלְאַךְ יְהוָה בִּיהֹושֻׁעַ לֵאמֹר׃  
7"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. כֹּה־אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאֹות אִם־בִּדְרָכַי תֵּלֵךְ וְאִם אֶת־מִשְׁמַרְתִּי תִשְׁמֹר וְגַם־אַתָּה תָּדִין אֶת־בֵּיתִי וְגַם תִּשְׁמֹר אֶת־חֲצֵרָי וְנָתַתִּי לְךָ מַהְלְכִים בֵּין הָעֹמְדִים הָאֵלֶּה׃  
8Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, you and your friends who sit before you, for they are men of good omen: behold, I will bring my servant the Branch. שְׁמַע־נָא יְהֹושֻׁעַ הַכֹּהֵן הַגָּדֹול אַתָּה וְרֵעֶיךָ הַיֹּשְׁבִים לְפָנֶיךָ כִּי־אַנְשֵׁי מֹופֵת הֵמָּה כִּי־הִנְנִי מֵבִיא אֶת־עַבְדִּי צֶמַח׃  
9For behold, upon the stone which I have set before Joshua, upon a single stone with seven facets, I will engrave its inscription, says the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the guilt of this land in a single day. כִּי הִנֵּה הָאֶבֶן אֲשֶׁר נָתַתִּי לִפְנֵי יְהֹושֻׁעַ עַל־אֶבֶן אַחַת שִׁבְעָה עֵינָיִם הִנְנִי מְפַתֵּחַ פִּתֻּחָהּ נְאֻם יְהוָה צְבָאֹות וּמַשְׁתִּי אֶת־עֲוֹן הָאָרֶץ־הַהִיא בְּיֹום אֶחָד׃  
10In that day, says the LORD of hosts, every one of you will invite his neighbour under his vine and under his fig tree." בַּיֹּום הַהוּא נְאֻם יְהוָה צְבָאֹות תִּקְרְאוּ אִישׁ לְרֵעֵהוּ אֶל־תַּחַת גֶּפֶן וְאֶל־תַּחַת תְּאֵנָה׃
