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.
“Saa da no, wobetu asubura ama Dawidfi ne Yerusalemfo de ahohoro wɔn bɔne ne wɔn ho fi.
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.
“Saa da no, meyi ahoni no din afi asase no so, na wɔrenkae wɔn bio,” sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni. “Meyi adiyifo ne fi honhom afi asase no so.
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.
Sɛ obi kɔ so hyɛ nkɔm a agya ne ɛna a wɔwoo saa nipa no bɛka akyerɛ no se, ‘Ɛsɛ sɛ wuwu, efisɛ, wode Awurade din atwa atoro.’ Sɛ ɔhyɛ nkɔm a, ɔno ankasa awofo bɛwɔ no afoa.
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.
“Saa da no, odiyifo biara ani bewu wɔ ne nkɔmhyɛ anisoadehu ho. Ɔrenhyɛ odiyifo atade a wɔde nwi ayɛ no mfa nnaadaa nnipa.
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.
Ɔbɛka se, ‘Menyɛ odiyifo. Meyɛ okuafo. Na efi me mmerantebere mu, asase yi so na minya mʼano aduan.’
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.
Na sɛ obi bisa no se, ‘Akuru bɛn na ɛwɔ wo ho yi a?’ Obebua se, ‘Ɛyɛ akuru a minyaa wɔ me nnamfonom fi.’”
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.
“Sɔre, afoa, sɔre tia me guanhwɛfo, tia onipa a ɔbɛn me!” Sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni. “Bɔ oguanhwɛfo no, na nguan no bɛbɔ ahwete, na mɛma me nsa so atia nguantenmma no.
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.
Asase no so nyinaa,” sɛnea Awurade se ni, “Wɔbɛbɔ nkyɛmu abiɛsa mu abien ahwe fam ma wɔawuwu; na nkyɛmu abiɛsa mu baako bɛka wɔ so.
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.
Mede nkyɛmu abiɛsa mu baako yi bɛfa ogya mu; mɛnan wɔn te sɛnea wɔnan dwetɛ, na masɔn wɔn so sɛ sikakɔkɔɔ. Wɔbɛbɔ me din afrɛ me, na megye wɔn so. Mɛka se, ‘Wɔyɛ me nkurɔfo,’ na wɔbɛka se, ‘Awurade yɛ yɛn Nyankopɔn.’”
