Zechariah 3

¹Zechariah 3:1. Then the angel showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, with Satan standing at his right hand to accuse him.²Zechariah 3:2. And the LORD said to Satan: “The LORD rebukes you, Satan! Indeed, the LORD, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebukes you! Is not this man a firebrand snatched from the fire?”³Zechariah 3:3. Now Joshua was dressed in filthy garments as he stood before the angel.⁴Zechariah 3:4. So the angel said to those standing before him, “Take off his filthy clothes!” Then he said to Joshua, “See, I have removed your iniquity, and I will clothe you with splendid robes.”⁵Zechariah 3:5. Then I said, “Let them put a clean turban on his head.” So a clean turban was placed on his head, and they clothed him, as the angel of the LORD stood by.⁶Zechariah 3:6. Then the angel of the LORD gave this charge to Joshua:⁷Zechariah 3:7. “This is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘If you walk in My ways and keep My instructions, then you will govern My house and will also have charge of My courts; and I will give you a place among these who are standing here.⁸Zechariah 3:8. Hear now, O high priest Joshua, you and your companions seated before you, who are indeed a sign. For behold, I am going to bring My servant, the Branch.⁹Zechariah 3:9. See the stone I have set before Joshua; on that one stone are seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave on it an inscription, declares the LORD of Hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of this land in a single day.¹⁰Zechariah 3:10. On that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, you will each invite your neighbor to sit under your own vine and fig tree.’”
