welcher antwortete und sprach zu denen, die vor ihm standen: Tut die unreinen Kleider von ihm! Und er sprach zu ihm: Siehe, ich habe deine Sünde von dir genommen und habe dich mit Feierkleidern angezogen.
Y habló el ángel, e intimó a los que estaban delante de sí, diciendo: Quitadle esas vestimentas viles. Y a él dijo: Mira que he hecho pasar tu pecado de ti, y te he hecho vestir de ropas de gala.
Él dijo a los que estaban delante de él: «Quítenle las ropas sucias». Y a Josué le dijo: «Mira, he quitado de ti tu culpa y te vestiré con ropas de gala».
L'ange, prenant la parole, dit à ceux qui étaient devant lui: Otez-lui les vêtements sales! Puis il dit à Josué: Vois, je t'enlève ton iniquité, et je te revêts d'habits de fête.
E l’Angelo prese a dire in questa maniera a quelli che stavano ritti davanti a lui: Toglietegli d’addosso quei vestimenti sozzi. Poi gli disse: Vedi, io ho rimossa d’addosso a te la tua iniquità, e t’ho vestito di vestimenti nuovi.
Então respondeu, aos que estavam diante dele, dizendo: Tirai-lhe estas vestes sujas. E a Josué disse: Eis que tenho feito com que passe de ti a tua iniqüidade, e te vestirei de vestes finas.
