< 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.
“Ní ọjọ́ náà ìsun kan yóò ṣí sílẹ̀ fún ilé Dafidi àti fún àwọn ará Jerusalẹmu, láti wẹ̀ wọ́n mọ́ kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àti àìmọ́ wọn.
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.
“Yóò sì ṣe ní ọjọ́ náà ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, ni èmi ó gé orúkọ àwọn òrìṣà kúrò ni ilẹ̀ náà, a kì yóò sì rántí wọn mọ́, àti pẹ̀lú èmi ó mú àwọn wòlíì èké àti àwọn ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ kúrò ni ilẹ̀ náà.
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.
Yóò sì ṣe, nígbà tí ẹnìkan yóò sọtẹ́lẹ̀ síbẹ̀, ni baba rẹ̀ àti ìyá rẹ̀ tí ó bí í yóò wí fún un pé, ‘Ìwọ ki yóò yè, nítorí ìwọ ń sọ ọ̀rọ̀ èké ni orúkọ Olúwa.’ Àti baba rẹ̀ àti ìyá rẹ̀ tí o bí í yóò gun un ni àgúnpa nígbà tí ó bá sọtẹ́lẹ̀.
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.
“Yóò sì ṣe ní ọjọ́ náà, ojú yóò tí àwọn wòlíì èké olúkúlùkù nítorí ìran rẹ̀, nígbà tí òun ba tí sọtẹ́lẹ̀; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kì yóò sì wọ aṣọ wòlíì onírun rẹ̀ tí o fi ń tan ní jẹ.
5 They will say, “I'm not a prophet, I'm a farmer. I've worked on the land since I was a child.”
Ṣùgbọ́n òun o wí pé, ‘Èmi kí í ṣe wòlíì, àgbẹ̀ ni èmi; nítorí tí a ti fi mí ṣe ìránṣẹ́ láti ìgbà èwe mi wá.’
6 If somebody asks him, “What are those wounds on your back?” he will answer, “I was wounded in my friend's house.”
Ẹnìkan ó sì wí fún un pé, ‘Ọgbẹ́ kín ní wọ̀nyí ni ẹ̀yìn rẹ?’ Òun o sì dáhùn pé, ‘Wọ̀nyí ni ibi tí a ti sá mi ní ilé àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ mi.’
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.
“Dìde, ìwọ idà, sí Olùṣọ́-àgùntàn mi, àti sí ẹni tí í ṣe ẹnìkejì mi,” ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí: “Kọlu Olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, àwọn àgùntàn a sì túká: èmi o sì yí ọwọ́ mi sí àwọn kéékèèké.
8 Two thirds of the people of the land will be cut down, only one third will remain, says the Lord.
Yóò sì ṣe, ni gbogbo ilẹ̀,” ni Olúwa wí, “a ó gé apá méjì nínú rẹ̀ kúrò yóò sì kú; ṣùgbọ́n apá kẹta yóò kù nínú rẹ̀.
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.”
Èmi ó sì mú apá kẹta náà la àárín iná, èmi yóò sì yọ́ wọn bí a ti yọ́ fàdákà, èmi yóò sì dán wọn wò, bi a tí ń dán wúrà wò: wọn yóò sì pé orúkọ mi, èmi yóò sì dá wọn lóhùn: èmi yóò wí pé, ‘Àwọn ènìyàn mi ni,’ àwọn yóò sì wí pé, ‘Olúwa ni Ọlọ́run wa.’”
