Zacarias 13

På hin Dag skal en Kilde vælde frem for Davids Hus og Jerusalems Indbyggere mod Synd og Urenhed.

Og på hin bag, lyder det fra Hærskarers HERRE, udrydder jeg Afgudernes Navne af Landet, så de ikke mer skal ihukommes; også Profeterne og Urenhedens Ånd driver jeg ud af Landet.

På hin Dag skal hver en Profet skamme sig over sine Syner, når han profeterer, og han skal ikke klæde sig i lådden Kappe for at føre Folk bag Lyset,

Frem, Sværd, imod min Hyrde, mod Manden, som står mig nær, så lyder det fra Hærskarers HERRE. Hyrden vil jeg slå, så Fårehjorden spredes; mod Drengene løfter jeg Hånden.

Og i hele Landet lyder det fra HERREN, skal to Tredjedele udryddes og udånde, men een Tredjedel skal levnes.

In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness. {uncleanness: Heb. separation for uncleanness}

And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, {that} I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.

And it shall come to pass, {that} when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother that begat him shall say unto him, Thou shalt not live; for thou speakest lies in the name of the LORD: and his father and his mother that begat him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.

And it shall come to pass in that day, {that} the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision, when he hath prophesied; neither shall they wear a rough garment to deceive: {a rough...: Heb. a garment of hair} {deceive: Heb. lie}

But he shall say, I {am} no prophet, I {am} an husbandman; for man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.

And {one} shall say unto him, What {are} these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, {Those} with which I was wounded {in} the house of my friends.

Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man {that is} my fellow, saith the LORD of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones.

And it shall come to pass, {that} in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off {and} die; but the third shall be left therein.

And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It {is} my people: and they shall say, The LORD {is} my God.
