[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
[8] Heare O Iosua thou hie priest, thou & thy felowes that sit before thee, for they are monstruous persons: behold, I wyl bring foorth the braunche my seruaunt
[9] For lo, the stone that I haue layde before Iosua, vpon one stone shalbe seuen eyes: beholde, I wyll cut out the grauing therof, saith the Lorde of hoastes, and I wyll take away the sinne of the lande in one day
[10] In that day shall euery man call his neighbour vnder the vine, and vnder the figtree, saith the Lorde of hoastes
