Zechariah 13

1 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.

「那日，必給大衛家和耶路撒冷的居民開一個泉源，洗除罪惡與污穢。」

2 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.

萬軍之耶和華說：「那日，我必從地上除滅偶像的名，不再被人記念；也必使這地不再有假先知與污穢的靈。

3 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.

若再有人說預言，生他的父母必對他說：『你不得存活，因為你託耶和華的名說假預言。』生他的父母在他說預言的時候，要將他刺透。

4 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.

那日，凡作先知說預言的必因他所論的異象羞愧，不再穿毛衣哄騙人。

5 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.

他必說：『我不是先知，我是耕地的；我從幼年作人的奴僕。』

6 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.

必有人問他說：『你兩臂中間是甚麼傷呢？』他必回答說：『這是我在親友家中所受的傷。』」

7 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.

萬軍之耶和華說： 刀劍哪，應當興起， 攻擊我的牧人和我的同伴。 擊打牧人，羊就分散； 我必反手加在微小者的身上。

8 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.

耶和華說：這全地的人， 三分之二必剪除而死， 三分之一仍必存留。

9 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.

我要使這三分之一經火， 熬煉他們，如熬煉銀子； 試煉他們，如試煉金子。 他們必求告我的名， 我必應允他們。 我要說：這是我的子民。 他們也要說：耶和華是我們的上帝。
