Zechariah 3

1 And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of theLord, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.

2 And theLordsaid unto Satan, TheLordrebuke thee, O Satan; yea, theLordthat hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?

3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.

4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take the filthy garments from off him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with rich apparel.

5 And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments; and the angel of theLordstood by.

6 And the angel of theLordprotested unto Joshua, saying,

7 Thus saith theLordof hosts: If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou also shalt judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee a place of access among these that stand by.

8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou and thy fellows that sit before thee; for they are men which are a sign: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the Branch.

9 For behold, the stone that I have set before Joshua; upon one stone are seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith theLordof hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.

10 In that day, saith theLordof hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.
