Zaharija 13

1 U onaj dan otvorit će se izvor domu Davidovu i Jeruzalemcima da se operu od grijeha i nečistoće.

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 U onaj dan - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama - iskorijenit ću iz zemlje imena kumirÄa da se više ne spominju; uklonit ću iz zemlje i proroke i duh nečistoće.

And it shall come to pass in that day, says 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 I will also cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.

3 Ako netko još bude prorokovao, otac i mati koji su ga rodili reći će mu: 'Nećeš više živjeti, jer laž govoriš u ime Jahvino!' Otac i mati koji su ga rodili probost će ga kada bude prorokovao.

And it shall come to pass that, when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother who begot him shall say to him, Thou shall not live, for thou speak lies in the name of Jehovah. And his father and his mother who begot him shall thrust him through when he prophesies.

4 U onaj dan svaki će se prorok stidjeti svoga viđenja; neće se više ogrtati plaštem od kostrijeti da bi lagali,

And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed each one of his vision, when he prophesies, nor shall they wear a hairy mantle to deceive.

5 nego će govoriti: 'Nisam ja prorok; ja sam ratar, zemlja je moje dobro od mladosti!'

But he shall say, I am no prophet. I am a tiller of the ground, for I have been made a bondman from my youth.

6 Ako li ga tko upita: 'Kakve su ti to rane po tijelu?' on će odgovoriti: 'Izranjen sam kod prijateljÄa.'

And a man shall say to him, What are these wounds between thine arms? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.

7 Probudi se, maču, protiv mog pastira, protiv čovjeka, moga srodnika - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama. Udari pastira, i ovce će se razbjeći! Okrenut ću ruku protiv slabića,

Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man who is my companion, says Jehovah of hosts. Smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered. And I will turn my hand upon the little ones.

8 i u svoj će zemlji - riječ je Jahvina - dvije trećine biti istrijebljene, a trećina ostavljena.

And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, says Jehovah, two parts therein shall be cut off and die, but the third shall be left in it.

9 Tu ću trećinu kroz oganj provesti, pročistit ću ih kao što se pročišćuje srebro, iskušat' ih kao što se srebro iskušava. I on će zazivati ime moje, a ja ću mu se odazvati; i reći ću: 'Moj je to narod!' a on će reći: 'Jahve je Bog moj!'”

And I will bring the third part into 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, Jehovah is my God.
