The Fourth Vision of the Kohen haGadol

3:1 And he shewed me Yehoshua Kohen HaGadol standing before the messenger of YHWH (יהוה), and satan standing at his right hand to accuse him.

3:2 And YHWH (יהוה) said unto satan, YHWH (יהוה) rebuke thee, O satan; even YHWH (יהוה) that hath chosen Yerushalayim rebuke thee: [is] not this a brand plucked out of the fire?

3:3 Now Yehoshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the messenger.

3:4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, hinnei, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.

3:5 And I said, Let them set a tzanif tahor (clean turban, mitznefet) upon his head. So they set a tzanif tahor (clean turban, mitznefet) upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the messenger of YHWH (יהוה) stood by.

3:6 And the messenger of YHWH (יהוה) protested unto Yehoshua, saying,

3:7 Thus saith YHWH (יהוה) Tzva'ot;

"If thou wilt halak in My derek, and if thou wilt shomer My mishmeret (charge,service), then thou shalt also judge My bayit, and shalt also guard My courts, and I will give thee places to halak among these that stand by.

3:8 ' Shema now, O Yehoshua Kohen HaGadol, Thou, and thy companions who sit before thee:

For they [are] men a wondrous sign:

For, hinnei, I will bring forth My Eved the TZEMACH (branch).

3:9 For hinnei the stone that I have laid before Yehoshua; upon one stone [shall be] seven eyes: hinnei, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith YHWH (יהוה) Tzva'ot, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in yom echad.

3:10 B'Yom ha Hu, saith YHWH (יהוה) Tzva'ot, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the teenah (fig tree).
