The Vision of Joshua the High Priest

Then [the angel] showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel[fn] of the LORD, with Satan[fn] standing at his right hand to accuse him.

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[fn] snatched from the fire?”

3 

Now Joshua was dressed in filthy garments as he stood before the angel. 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.”

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.

6 

Then the angel of the LORD gave this charge to Joshua 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.

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. 9 See the stone I have set before Joshua; on that one stone are seven eyes.[fn] 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. 10 On that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, you will each invite [your] neighbor to sit under [your own] vine and fig tree.’ ” 4
