1¶ I whakakitea hoki e ia ki ahau a Hohua, te tino tohunga e tu ana i te aroaro o te anahera a Ihowa, me Hatana e tu ana i tona matau hei hoariri mona.
1And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of Jehovah, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.
2Na ka mea atu a Ihowa ki a Hatana, kia whakatupehupehu a Ihowa ki a koe, e Hatana; ae ra, ko Ihowa nana nei a Hiruharama i whiriwhiri, kia whakatupehupehu a Ihowa ki a koe: he teka ianei he mounga tenei kua kapohia mai i roto i te ahi?
2And Jehovah said unto Satan, Jehovah rebuke thee, O Satan; yea, Jehovah that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?
3Na he whakahouhou nga kakahu o Hohua, a i tu ia i te aroaro o te anahera.
3Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the angel.
4Na ka oho ia, ka mea ki te hunga e tu ana i tona aroaro, ka ki atu, Tangohia nga kakahu paru i a ia. Katahi ia ka mea ki a ia, Nana, kua meinga e ahau tou he kia pahemo atu i a koe, a ka whakakakahuria koe e ahau ki nga kakahu whakapaipai.
4And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take the filthy garments from off him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with rich apparel.
5Na ka mea ahau, Potaea he potae ataahua ki tona mahunga. Na potaea ana e ratou he potae ataahua ki tona mahunga, a whakakakahuria ana ia e ratou; me te tu ano te anahera a Ihowa.
5And I said, Let them set a clean mitre upon his head. So they set a clean mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments; and the angel of Jehovah was standing by.
6Katahi te anahera a Ihowa ka kauwhau ki a Hohua, ka mea,
6And the angel of Jehovah protested unto Joshua, saying,
7Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano; Ki te haere koe i aku ara, ki te puritia e koe aku mea, na mau ano e whakarite mo toku whare, mau hoki e tiaki oku marae, a ka hoatu e ahau he haereerenga mou i roto i te hunga e tu nei.
7Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou also shalt judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee a place of access among these that stand by.
8¶ Whakarongo mai aianei, e Hohua, e te tino tohunga, koutou ko ou hoa e noho na i tou aroaro; hei tohu hoki ratou, aua tangata: no te mea, nana, ka kawea mai e ahau taku pononga, te Manga.
8Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou and thy fellows that sit before thee; for they are men that are a sign: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the Branch.
9Na, ko te kohatu i hoatu e ahau ki te aroaro o Hohua, e whitu nga kanohi o taua kohatu kotahi; na, maku e whaowhao ona whakairo, e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano, a ka whakawateatia atu e ahau te he o taua whenua i te ra kotahi.
9For, behold, the stone that I have set before Joshua; upon one stone are seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith Jehovah of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
10I taua ra, e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano, ka karangatia e koutou tona hoa, tona hoa, i raro i te waina, i raro hoki i te piki.
10In that day, saith Jehovah of hosts, shall ye invite every man his neighbor under the vine and under the fig-tree.
