Greek text · Archambault 2:190

Καὶ κατακληρονομήσει κύριος τὸν Ἰούδαν καὶ τὴν μερίδα αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν τὴν ἁγίαν, καὶ ἐκλέξεται ἔτι τὴν Ἱερουσαλήμ. Εὐλαβείσθω πᾶσα σὰρξ ἀπὸ προσώπου κυρίου, ὅτι ἐξεγήγερται ἐκ νεφελῶν ἁγίων αὐτοῦ. Καὶ ἔδειξέ μοι Ἰησοῦν, τὸν ἱερέα τὸν μέγαν, ἑστῶτα πρὸ προσώπου ἀγγέλου κυρίου· καὶ διάβολος εἱστήκει ἐκ δεξιῶν αὐτοῦ, τοῦ ἀντικεῖσθαι αὐτῷ. Καὶ εἶπε κύριος πρὸς τὸν διάβολον· Ἐπιτιμήσαι κύριος ἐν σοί, ὁ ἐκλεξάμενος τὴν Ἱερουσαλήμ. Οὐχὶ ἰδοὺ τοῦτο δαλὸς ἐξεσπασμένος ἐκ πυρός;

English · Claude translation

“‘And the Lord shall inherit Judah and his portion in the holy land, and shall again choose Jerusalem. Let all flesh fear before the Lord, for he has risen up out of his holy clouds. And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord; and the devil stood at his right hand to oppose him. And the Lord said to the devil: The Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you. Is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?’
