3:1  Then he showed me Joshua, the high priest, standing before the angel of the Lord, with Satan standing at his right to accuse him.
3:2  And the angel of the Lord said to Satan, “May God rebuke you, Satan! May the Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Is not this man a brand snatched from the fire?”
3:3  Now Joshua was dressed in filthy clothes as he stood before the angel.
3:4  The angel then said to those who were standing before him, “Remove his filthy garments and clothe him in fine vestments.”
3:5  He also said, “Place a clean miter on his head.” Therefore, they put a clean miter on his head and clothed him in clean garments, while the angel of the Lord stood by and said, “Behold, I have removed your guilt.”
3:6  The angel of the Lord then declared to Joshua:
3:7  “Thus says the Lord of hosts: If you walk in my ways and observe my ordinances, you will rule over my house and be in charge of my courts, and I will give you the right of access to all those who are standing here.
3:8  “Therefore listen, Joshua, high priest, you and your colleagues who are seated here in attendance before you. For they are an omen of things to come. I will now bring in my servant, the Branch.
3:9  Gaze upon the stone that I have set before Joshua, a single stone with seven facets. I will engrave its inscription, says the Lord of hosts, and I will remove the guilt of this land in a single day.
3:10  On that day, says the Lord of hosts, you will invite each other to come under your vines and your fig trees.”
