3
1 And the Lord showed me Jesus the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and the * Devil stood on his right hand to resist him. 2 And the Lords said to the Devil, 3 ✡ The Lord rebuke you, O Devil, even the Lord that has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you: behold! is not this as a brand plucked from the fire? 4 Now Jesus was clothed in † filthy raiment, and stood before the angel. 5 And the Lord answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy raiment from him: and he said to him, Behold, I have taken away your iniquities: and clothe you⌃ him with a ‡ long robe, 6 and place a pure mitre upon his head. So they placed a pure mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments: and the angel of the Lord stood by. 7 And the angel of the Lord testified to Jesus, saying, 8 Thus says the Lord Almighty; If you will walk in my ways, and take heed to my charges, then shall you judge my house: and if you will diligently keep my court, then will I give you men to walk in the midst of these that stand here. 9 Hear now, Jesus the high priest, you, and your neighbours that are sitting before you: for they are diviners, for, behold, I bring forth my servant The § Branch. 10 For as for the stone which I have set before the face of Jesus, on the one stone are seven eyes: behold, I am digging a trench, says the Lord Almighty, and I will search out all the iniquity of that land in one day. 11 In that day, says the Lord Almighty, you⌃ shall call together every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.
