Zechariah 3:1-7 ▼

1 And he shewed me Iosua the hie priest standing before the angell of the Lord, and Satan stoode at his right hande to resist him.

2 And the Lorde saide vnto Satan: The Lorde reproue thee thou Satan, yea the Lorde that hath chosen Hierusalem reproue thee: Is not this a brand taken out of the fire?

3 Now Iosua was clothed in vncleane rayment, and stoode before the angel.

4 And he aunswered & saide vnto those that stoode before him, Take away the foule clothes fro him. And vnto him he saide: Beholde, I haue taken away thy sinne from thee, and I wyll clothe thee with chaunge of rayment.

5 And I saide, Let them set a fayre miter vpon his head: So they set a fayre miter vpon his head, & put on clothes vpon him, and the angell of the Lorde stoode there.

6 Then the angell of the Lorde testified vnto Iosua, and spake,

7 Thus saith the Lorde of hoastes: If thou wylt walke in my wayes, & keepe my watch, thou shalt iudge my house, & kepe my courtes, and I wyll geue thee place among these that stande here.
