1 In Yom HaHu there shall be a makor (fountain)* [10] opened to the Bais Dovid and to the inhabitants of Yerushalayim for sin and for niddah (impurity).*

2 And in Yom HaHu it shall come to pass, saith Hashem Tzva'os, that I will cut off the shmot (names) of the atzabim (idols) out of ha'aretz, and they shall no more be remembered; and also I will cause the nevi'im and the ruach hatum'ah (unclean spirit) to pass from ha'aretz. 3 And it shall come to pass, that if any shall still prophesy, then his av and his em that bore him shall say unto him, Thou shalt not live; for thou speakest sheker b'Shem Hashem; and his av and his em that bore him shall thrust him through* when he prophesieth.

4 And in Yom HaHu it shall come to pass, that the nevi'im shall be ashamed, every one of his chizzayon (vision, revelation), when he hath prophesied; neither shall they wear an adderet se'ar (garment of hair, hairy mantle) to deceive; 5 But he shall say, I am no navi, I am an ish oved adamah (a man who works the soil); for land I owned from my youth. 6 And if one shall say unto him, What are these makkot (strokes, marks of strokes, scars, wounds) between thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the bais of my friends.

7 Awake, O Cherev (sword), against My Ro'eh,*

against the Gever (man) that is My Amit (fellow, intimate companion, associate),

saith Hashem Tzva'os;

strike the Ro'eh (shepherd), and the Tzon (sheep, flock) shall be scattered;

and I will turn Mine hand upon the tzo'arim (little ones);*

8 And it shall come to pass, that in kol ha'aretz, saith Hashem,

two-thirds therein shall be cut off and die;

but one-third shall remain therein.

9 And I will bring the one-third through the eish,

and will refine them as kesef is refined,

and will test them as zahav is tested;

they shall call biShmi (on My Name), and I will hear them;

I will say: This is My people;

and they shall say: Hashem is Elohai.
