撒迦利亞書 13

1 在那一天，為達味家和耶路撒冷的居民將開放一個水泉，為洗滌罪過和不潔。

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.

2 在那一天，──萬軍的上主的斷語──我要由地上剷除一切偶像的名號，不再為人所記念；並且我還要將假先知們和不潔的神由地上滅絕。

And it shall come to pass in that day, Saith Jehovah of hosts, That I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, And they shall no more be remembered; And the prophets also, and the impure spirit, Will I cause to pass out of the land.

3 將來如果有人還要冒充先知，生養他的父母必要對他說：你不能生存，因為你藉上主的名字說了謊話。生養他的父母就在他說妙語時，要把他刺死。

And it shall come to pass, when any one shall yet prophesy, That his father and mother shall say to him, Even they that begat him, “Thou shalt not live; For thou hast spoken falsehood in the name of Jehovah.” And his father and mother that begat him shall pierce him through when he prophesieth.

4 在那一天，每個假先知，在他說妙語時，必因自己的神視感到羞慚；他們必不再穿毛外氅，去行欺騙；

And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophet shall be ashamed Every one of his vision when he prophesieth; Neither shall they wear a garment of hair, to deceive.

5 他反要說：我不是先知，我是一個種田的人，因為我自幼就以務農為業。

But each shall say, “I am no prophet; I am a man that tilleth the ground; For a man hath purchased me from my youth.”

6 若有人問他說：怎麼在你兩手上有這些傷痕﹖他要答說：那是我在愛我的人家裏所受的傷。

And when one shall say to him, “What are these wounds in thy hands?” He shall answer, “Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.”

7 刀劍，起來攻擊我的牧人，攻擊那作我同伴的人──萬軍上主斷語。打擊牧人，羊群就要四散，然而我要向弱小的羊伸出我的手。

Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, Even against the man who is my fellow, saith Jehovah of hosts! Smite the shepherd, and let the sheep be scattered! I will also turn my hand against the lambs.

8 將來在全國──上主的斷語──三分之二必被剷除而死去，其中只留下三分之一。

And it shall come to pass in all the land, saith Jehovah, That two parts therein shall be cut off and die; But the third part shall be left therein.

9 我要使這三分之一經過火煉，煉淨他們如同煉淨銀子，試驗他們如同試驗金子。 他們必要呼號我的名字我也必要俯聽他們；我要說：「這是我的百姓。」他們每人也要說：「上主是我的天主」。

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 upon me, and I will hear them; I will say, “It is my people.” And they shall say, “Jehovah is our God.”
