< Zechariah 13 >
1 In that day there shall be a fountaine opened to the house of Dauid, and to the inhabitants of Ierusalem, for sinne and for vncleannesse.
“Nʼụbọchị ahụ, a ga-emeghe isi iyi mmiri nye ụlọ Devid na ndị niile bi na Jerusalem. Ọ ga-abụ isi iyi a ga-eji sachapụ mmehie na adịghị ọcha ha niile.
2 And in that day, sayth the Lord of hostes, I will cut off the names of the idoles out of the land: and they shall no more be remembred: and I will cause the prophets, and the vncleane spirit to depart out of the land.
“Nʼụbọchị ahụ, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, kwubiri, aga m ebipụ aha arụsị niile dị nʼala ahụ, a gaghị echetakwa ha ọzọ. Aga m esitekwa nʼala a wezuga ma ndị amụma ma mmụọ nke adịghị ọcha niile.
3 And when any shall yet prophesie, his father and his mother that begate him, shall say vnto him, Thou shalt not liue: for thou speakest lies in the name of the Lord: and his father and his mother that begat him, shall thrust him through, when he prophesieth.
Ọ bụrụkwa na onye ọbụla a ga nʼihu na-ebu amụma, nne na nna ndị mụrụ ya ga-asị ya, ‘Ị ghaghị ịnwụ nʼihi na i kwuola okwu ụgha nʼaha Onyenwe anyị.’ Mgbe onye dị otu a bukwara amụma, ọ bụ nne na nna ya ga-eji ùbe magbuo ya.
4 And in that day shall the prophetes be ashamed euery one of his vision, when he hath prophesied: neither shall they weare a rough garment to deceiue.
“Nʼụbọchị ahụ, ihere ga-emekwa ndị amụma nʼihi ibu amụma banyere ọhụ nke ha hụrụ. Ha agaghị eyikwa uwe ajị anụ nke ndị amụma na-eyi nʼihi iduhie ndị mmadụ,
5 But he shall say, I am no Prophet: I am an husbandman: for man taught me to be an heardman from my youth vp.
Onye ọbụla nʼime ha ga-asịkwa, ‘Abụghị m onye amụma, onye ọrụ ubi ka m bụ, ọ bụ ihe si nʼala ka m ji azụ onwe m site na mgbe m bụ okorobịa.’
6 And one shall say vnto him, What are these woundes in thine hands? Then he shall answere, Thus was I wounded in the house of my friendes.
Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla ajụọ, ‘Gịnị bụ ọnya ndị a niile dị gị nʼahụ?’ Ha ga-azaghachi, ‘Ọnya ndị etipụtara m nʼụlọ ndị enyi m.’
7 Arise, O sword, vpon my shepheard, and vpon the man, that is my fellow, sayth the Lord of hostes: smite the shepheard, and the sheepe shall be scattered: and I will turne mine hand vpon the litle ones.
“Teta nʼụra, gị mma agha, imegide onye ọzụzụ atụrụ m, na imegide nwoke ibe m, nke nọ m nso,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwubiri. “Tigbuo onye ọzụzụ atụrụ, igwe atụrụ ga-agbasasịkwa. Aga m eweli aka m megide ndị dị nta.
8 And in all the land, sayeth the Lord, two partes therein shall be cut off, and die: but the third shall be left therein.
Nʼala ahụ niile,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya, “Ụzọ mmadụ abụọ nʼime ụzọ atọ ka a ga-etida, ma otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ ga-afọdụ nʼime ya.
9 And I will bring that third part thorowe the fire, and will fine them as the siluer is fined, and will trye them as golde is tryed: they shall call on my Name, and I will heare them: I will say, It is my people, and they shall say, The Lord is my God.
Otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ a fọdụrụ ka m ga-ewebata nʼime ọkụ. Aga m eji ọkụ nụchaa ha dịka e si anụcha ọlaọcha, jiri ọkụ nwaa ha dịka e si anwa ọlaedo. Ha ga-akpọku aha m, aga m azakwa ha. Aga m asịkwa, ‘Ndị a bụ ndị m,’ Ha onwe ha ga-asịkwa, ‘Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke anyị.’”
