A Crown for Joshua

9And the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

10Take from the exiles—from Heldai, from Tobijah, and from Jedaiah—and you yourself shall go on that day and enter the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, who have come from Babylon.

11Take silver and gold, make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest.

12And say to him, ‘Thus says Yahweh of Armies: Behold, a man—Branch is his name—and he will branch out from his place and build the temple of Yahweh.’

13Yes, he will build the temple of Yahweh, and he will bear majesty, and he will sit and rule on his throne. And he will be a priest on his throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two of them.

14And the crowns shall be for Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and Hen son of Zephaniah, as a memorial in the temple of Yahweh.

15And those who are far off will come and build in the temple of Yahweh, and you will know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me to you. And this will happen if you diligently obey the voice of Yahweh your God.
