< Zechariah 13 >

1 “On that day a fountain will be opened to the house of David and the people of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and impurity.
Tholhnah dongah khaw pumom dongah khaw, te khohnin a pha vaengah tah David imkhui ham neh Jerusalem khosa rhoek ham thunsih phuet ni.
2 And on that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, I will erase the names of the idols from the land, and they will no longer be remembered. I will also remove the prophets and the spirit of impurity from the land.
He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Te khohnin a pha vaengah ah. Muei ming he khohmuen lamloh ka hnawt vetih poek uh voel mahpawh. A tihnai kah tonghma rhoek neh mueihla te khaw khohmuen lamloh ka khum sak ni.
3 And if anyone still prophesies, his father and mother who bore him will say to him, ‘You shall not remain alive, because you have spoken falsely in the name of the LORD.’ When he prophesies, his father and mother who bore him will pierce him through.
Tedae hlang te tonghma pueng khaming. Te vaengah anih aka cun a manu neh a napa loh anih te, “Yahweh ming neh laithae na thui dongah hing palueng boeh,” a ti nah ni. A tonghma vaengah anih aka cun a manu neh a napa loh anih a thun ni.
4 And on that day every prophet who prophesies will be ashamed of his vision, and he will not put on a hairy cloak in order to deceive.
Te khohnin a pha vaengah tah tonghma rhoek te yak uh ni. Hlang he a olphong neh a tonghma ah khaw a basa nah ham ngaih ah maeh mul himbai bai uh mahpawh.
5 He will say, ‘I am not a prophet; I work the land, for I was purchased as a servant in my youth.’
Te vaengah, “Ka tonghma moenih, hlang loh kai he ka camoe ah n'lai dongah kai tah lo tawn hlang ni,” a ti ni.
6 If someone asks him, ‘What are these wounds on your chest?’ he will answer, ‘These are the wounds I received in the house of my friends.’
Anih te, “Na kut laklo kah hmasoe he ta?” a ti nah vaengah, “Ka lungnah im kah n'ngawn la he,” a ti ni.
7 Awake, O sword, against My Shepherd, against the man who is My Companion, declares the LORD of Hosts. Strike the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered, and I will turn My hand against the little ones.
Cunghang aw kai kah boiva aka dawn taeng neh ka imben hlang pakhat taengah khaw haenghang laeh. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Boiva aka dawn te ngawn lamtah boiva te a taek a yak uh ni. Aka muei rhoek taengah kut ka thuung ni.
8 And in all the land, declares the LORD, two-thirds will be cut off and perish, but a third will be left in it.
He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Diklai pum ah he he om ni. A khuikah hlop nit tah saii uh vetih pal uh ni. Te vaengah a khui kah hlop thum ah hlop khat te sueng ni.
9 This third I will bring through the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on My name, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘They are My people,’ and they will say, ‘The LORD is our God.’”
Hlop thum hlop at te hmai khuiah ka khuen vetih cak a cil bangla amih te ka cil ni. Sui a noemcai bangla amih te ka noemcai ni. Anih loh kai ming te a khue uh vaengah kai loh anih te ka doo ni. Anih te ka pilnam ka ti vetih anih long khaw kai kah Pathen Yahweh a ti ni.
