< Zechariah 13 >

1 In that day, there will be a fountain open to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for the washing of the transgressor and of the defiled woman.
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Chiengʼno soko moro noyaw ni joka Daudi gi joma odak Jerusalem, soko ma nopwodhgi kuom richogi duto gi gak ma gigakgo.”
2 And this shall be in that day, says the Lord of hosts: I will disperse the names of the idols from the earth, and they will not be remembered any longer. And I will take away the false prophets and the unclean spirit from the earth.
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Chiengʼno anatiek nying nyiseche ma dhano oloso e piny, kendo ji ok nochak opargi. Anagol jonabi kaachiel gi chunje ma gombo timo timbe maricho e piny.
3 And this shall be: when any devotee will continue to prophesy, his father and his mother, who conceived him, will say to him, “You shall not live, because you have been speaking a lie in the name of the Lord.” And his father and his mother, his own parents, will pierce him, when he will prophesy.
Ka dipo ni ngʼato pod dhi nyime gi koro wach, to wuon gi min monywole nowachne ni, ‘Nyaka itho, nikech isewacho miriambo kikonyori gi nying Jehova Nyasaye.’ Ka ngʼato okoro wach, to jonywolne owuon ema nonege gi ligangla.
4 And this shall be: In that day, the prophets will be confounded, each one by his own vision, when he will prophesy. Neither will they be covered with a garment of sackcloth in order to deceive.
“Chiengʼno jonabi duto, moro ka moro wiye nokuodi gi fweny moneno. Onge janabi ma norwak lep koro wach mondo owuond ji.
5 But he will say, “I am not a prophet; I am a man of agriculture. For Adam has been my example from my youth.”
To moro ka moro kuomgi nowach mana ni, ‘An ok an janabi. An mana japur, kendo asebedo ka ayudo chiemba kowuok e lowo chakre aa e tin-na.’
6 And they will say to him, “What are these wounds in the middle of your hands?” And he will say, “I was wounded with these in the house of those who love me.”
Ka ngʼato openje ni, ‘To adhonde manie dendigi to manade?’ To enodwok ni, ‘Adhondegi ayudo e od osiepena.’”
7 Awake, O spear, against my shepherd and against the man that clings to me, says the Lord of hosts. Strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered. And I will turn my hand to the little ones.
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “In ligangla, chiew mondo ichadh jakwadha, adier, chadh ngʼat matiyona! Go jakwath mi rombe oke, nimar abiro kumo joma pod yomyom.”
8 And there will be in all the earth, says the Lord, two parts in it will be scattered and will pass away, and the third part will be left behind.
Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “E piny ngima, ariyo kuom adek mar ji biro tho mi ngʼad kargi oko; to kata kamano, achiel kuom adek mar jogo to nowe kangima.
9 And I will lead the third part through fire, and I will burn them just as silver is burned, and I will test them just as gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will heed them. I will say, “You are my people.” And they will say, “The Lord is my God.”
Achiel kuom adekgi abiro ketogi e mach; abiro pwodhogi kaka ipwodho fedha, kendo abiro temogi kaka itemo dhahabu. Gibiro luongo nyinga kendo abiro dwokogi; abiro wacho ni, ‘Gin joga,’ to gin bende gibiro wacho ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye en Nyasachwa.’”
