ZECHARIAH
[III

Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment. And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the Lord stood by. And the angel of the Lord protested unto Joshua, saying,

Thus saith the Lord of hosts;
If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge,
Then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts,
And I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by.
Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou,
And thy fellows that sit before thee:
For they are men wondered at:
For, behold, I will bring forth my servant the Branch.
For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua;
Upon one stone shall be seven eyes:
Behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the Lord of hosts,
And I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
In that day, saith the Lord of hosts,
Shall ye call every man his neighbour
Under the vine and under the fig tree.
