Zechariah 13
1 On that day a spring will be opened and continually flow for the house of David and for the people of Jerusalem to wash away their sin and impurity.
“Gaafas mana Daawitii fi jiraattota Yerusaalem cubbuu fi xuraaʼummaa irraa akka qulqulleessuuf burqaan tokko ni banama.
2 On that day, declares the Lord Almighty, I will wipe out idol worship from the land—the idols will not be remembered any longer. I will remove the false prophets and the spirit of impurity from the land.
“Ani gaafas maqaa waaqota tolfamoo biyyattii keessaa nan balleessa; isaan lammata hin yaadataman” jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu. “Ani raajotaa fi hafuura xuraaʼummaa biyyattii keessaa nan balleessa.
3 If anyone continues to prophesy, his father and mother to whom he was born will tell him, “You shall not live, because you have told lies in the Lord's name.” Then his parents shall kill him because he has prophesied.
Yoo namni tokko ammas raajii dubbate, abbaa fi haati isaa, warri isa dhalche, ‘Ati maqaa Waaqayyootiin waan soba dubbatteef duʼuu qabda’ jedhuun. Yeroo inni raajii dubbatutti abbaa fi haati isaa warri isa dhalche isa waraanu.
4 On that day such prophets will be too humiliated to prophesy their supposed visions. In order to deceive they will not put on their prophet's clothes made of coarse hair.
“Guyyaa sana raajiin hundinuu sababii mulʼata raajii isaatiif ni qaanaʼa; inni gowwoomsuudhaaf wayyaa raajii kan rifeensa irraa hojjetame hin uffatu.
5 They will say, “I'm not a prophet, I'm a farmer. I've worked on the land since I was a child.”
Inni, ‘Ani qotee bulaadha malee raajii miti; ijoollummaa kootii jalqabee namni na gurguree ture’ jedha.
6 If somebody asks him, “What are those wounds on your back?” he will answer, “I was wounded in my friend's house.”
Yoo namni tokko, ‘Madaan dhagna kee irraa kun maali?’ jedhee gaafate, inni, ‘Madaan kun madaa ani mana michoota kootti madaaʼee dha’ jedhee deebisa.
7 Wake up, my sword! Attack my shepherd, the man who stands beside me! declares the Lord. Strike the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered, and I will raise my hand against the lambs.
“Yaa goraadee, tiksee kootti, nama natti dhiʼaatu sanatti kaʼi!” jedha Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu. “Ati tiksee rukuti; hoolonni ni bittinneeffamu; anis harka koo warra xixinnaatti nan deebifadha.
8 Two thirds of the people of the land will be cut down, only one third will remain, says the Lord.
Lafa hunda irratti” jedha Waaqayyo, “Harka sadii keessaa harki lama rukutamee bada; taʼus harka sadii keessaa harki tokko achitti hafa.
9 I will place this one third in the fire, and I will refine them as silver is refined, and test them as gold is tested. They will call on me for help, and I will answer them. I will say, “These are my people,” and they will say, “The Lord is my God.”
Ani harka sadaffaa kana ibiddattin naqa; akkuma meetii baqsee isaan nan qulqulleessa; akka warqeetti isaan nan qora. Isaan maqaa koo ni waammatu; anis deebii nan kennaaf; ani, ‘Isaan saba koo ti’ nan jedha; isaan immoo, ‘Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya’ jedhu.”
