Zechariah 13

On that day a fountain will be opened for the house of David and for the dwellers of Jerusalem, for sin and for impurity.

“And it will happen on that day”—the declaration of God of Armies—“I will cut off the names of the idols from the land, and they will not be remembered again, and also I will cause the prophets and the spirit of uncleanness to pass from the land. \*

And it will happen, when a man prophesies again, then his father and his mother, the ones bearing him, will say to him, ‘You will not live, for you have spoken falsehood in the name of God.’ And his father and his mother, the ones bearing him, will pierce him in his prophesying. \*

And it will happen on that day, the prophets will have shame, each man from his vision, in his prophesying. And they will not wear a cloak of hair in order to deceive.

And he will say, ‘I am not a prophet. I am a man working the ground, for a man has owned me from my youth.’

And {someone} will say to him, ‘What are these wounds between your hands?’ And he will say, ‘Those are the ones with which I was struck {in} the house of my lovers.’ \* 7 Sword, awake against my shepherd, and against the man, my companion”—the declaration of God of Armies— “Strike the shepherd, and the flock will scatter, and I will turn my hand against the little ones. \* 8 And it will happen in all the land”—the declaration of God— “two portions in it will be cut off, they will expire, and the third will be left in it. 9 And I will bring the third into the fire, and I will refine them as {one} refines the silver, and I will test them as {one} tests the gold. He, he will call on my name, and I, I will answer him. I will say, ‘He is my people,’ and he, he will say, ‘God is my God.’” \*
