< 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.
Paa den Dag skal der være en aabnet Kilde for Davids Hus og for Jerusalems Indbyggere imod Synd og imod Urenhed.
2 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 also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.
Og det skal ske paa den Dag, siger den Herre Zebaoth, at jeg vil udrydde Afgudernes Navne af Landet, og de skulle ikke ihukommes ydermere; ogsaa Profeterne og den urene Aand vil jeg lade forsvinde af Landet.
3 And it shall come to pass, if any shall yet prophesy, that his father and his mother that begat him shall say unto him, Thou shalt not live; for thou speakest lies in the name of Jehovah; and his father and his mother that begat him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.
Og det skal ske, naar nogen spaar ydermere, da skal hans Fader og hans Moder, som avlede ham, sige til ham: Du skal ikke leve, thi du har talt Løgn i Herrens Navn; og hans Fader og hans Moder, som avlede ham, skulle gennembore Ham, naar han spaar.
4 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision, when he prophesieth; neither shall they wear a hairy mantle to deceive.
Og det skal ske paa den Dag, da skulle Profeterne skamme sig, hver over sit Syn, naar han spaar; og de skulle ikke iføre sig en laadden Kappe for at bedrage.
5 And he shall say, I am no prophet, I am a tiller of the ground; for man acquired me [as bondman] from my youth.
Men han skal sige: Jeg er ingen Profet, jeg er en Agerdyrker; thi en Mand har købt mig fra min Ungdom af.
6 And one shall say unto him, What are those wounds in thy hands? And he will say, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.
Og dersom nogen siger til ham: Hvad betyde disse Saar i dine Hænder? da skal han sige: Det er Slag, som jeg har faaet i deres Hus, som elskede mig.
7 Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, even against the man [that is] my fellow, saith Jehovah of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered, and I will turn my hand upon the little ones.
Sværd! vaagn op imod min Hyrde og imod den Mand, som er min Næste, siger den Herre Zebaoth; slaa Hyrden, og Faarene skulle adspredes, og jeg vil føre min Haand tilbage over de smaa.
8 And it shall come to pass in all the land, saith Jehovah, two parts therein shall be cut off [and] die; but the third shall be left therein.
Og det skal ske i alt Landet, siger Herren: De to Dele, som ere derudi, skulle udryddes, de skulle opgive Aanden; men den ene Tredjedel skal blive tilbage derudi.
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 answer them: I will say, It is my people; and they shall say, Jehovah is my God.
Og jeg vil bringe denne Tredjedel i Ilden og lutre den, som man lutrer Sølvet, og prøve den, som man prøver Guldet; den skal paakalde mit Navn, og jeg vil bønhøre den; jeg siger: Det er mit Folk, og den skal sige: Herren er min Gud.
