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 ɛda no, wɔbɛtu asubura ama Dawid fie ne Yerusalemfoɔ 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 ɛda no, mɛyi ahoni no din afiri asase no so, na wɔrenkae wɔn bio,” sɛdeɛ Asafo Awurade seɛ nie. “Mɛyi adiyifoɔ ne efiyɛ honhom afiri 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 onipa no bɛka akyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Ɛsɛ sɛ wowuo, ɛfiri sɛ, wode Awurade din atwa atorɔ.’ Sɛ ɔhyɛ nkɔm a, ɔno ankasa awofoɔ bɛwɔ no sekan.
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 ɛda no, odiyifoɔ biara ani bɛwu wɔ ne nkɔmhyɛ anisoadehunu ho. Ɔrenhyɛ odiyifoɔ atadeɛ a wɔde nwi ayɛ, 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 sɛ, ‘Menyɛ odiyifoɔ. Meyɛ okuafoɔ. Na ɛfiri me mmeranteberɛ mu no, asase yi so na menya mʼano aduane.’
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 sɛ, ‘Ɛdeɛn akuro na ɛwɔ wo ho yi a?’ Ɔbɛbua sɛ, ‘Ɛyɛ akuro a menyaa wɔ me nnamfonom fie.’”
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, Ao, akofena, sɔre tia me dwanhwɛfoɔ, tia onipa a ɔbɛn me!” Sɛdeɛ Asafo Awurade seɛ nie. “Bɔ odwanhwɛfoɔ no, na nnwan no bɛbɔ ahwete, na mɛma me nsa so atia nnwammaa 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,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie, “Wɔbɛbɔ nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu mmienu ahwe fam ma wɔawuwu; na nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa 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 mmiɛnsa mu baako yi bɛfa ogya mu; mɛnane wɔn te sɛ deɛ wɔnane dwetɛ, na masɔne wɔn so sɛ sikakɔkɔɔ. Wɔbɛbɔ me din afrɛ me, na mɛgye wɔn so. Mɛka sɛ, ‘Wɔyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ,’ na wɔbɛka sɛ, ‘Awurade yɛ yɛn Onyankopɔn.’”
