< Zacharias 13 >

1 In that day every place shall be opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for removal and for separation.
Aquel día habrá un manantial abierto para la casa de David y los habitantes de Jerusalén, para la purificación del pecado y de la impureza.
2 And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord of hosts, [that] I will utterly destroy the names of the idols from off the land, and there shall be no longer [any] remembrance of them: and I will cut off the false prophets and the evil spirit from the land.
Ese día, dice Yavé, de las huestes, eliminaré de la tierra los nombres de los ídolos, y nunca más serán recordados. Desapareceré de la tierra a sus profetas y al espíritu de impureza.
3 And it shall come to pass, if a man will yet prophesy, that his father and his mother which gave birth to him shall say to him, You shall not live; for you has spoken lies in the name of the Lord: and his father and his mother who gave him birth shall bind him as he is prophesying.
Sucederá que si alguno vuelve a profetizar, los padres que lo engendraron le dirán: ¡No vivirás, porque hablaste falsedad en el Nombre de Yavé! Y sus padres que lo engendraron lo traspasarán cuando profetice.
4 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision when he prophesies; and they shall clothe themselves with a garment of hair, because they have lied.
Aquel día esos profetas se avergonzarán de sus visiones y profecías. Nunca más se vestirán con un manto de pelo áspero para engañar.
5 And [one] shall say, I am not a prophet, for I am a tiller of the ground, for a man brought me up [thus] from my youth.
Y dirá: No soy profeta, sino labrador de la tierra, pues estuve en el campo desde mi juventud.
6 And I will say to him, What are these wounds between your hands? and he shall say, [Those] with which I was wounded in my beloved house.
Le preguntarán: ¿Por qué tienes estas heridas en tus manos? Y él responderá: Con ellas fui herido en la casa de mis amigos.
7 Awake, O sword, against my shepherds, and against the man [who is] my citizen, says the Lord Almighty: strike the shepherds, and draw out the sheep: and I will bring mine hand upon the little ones.
Oh espada, dice Yavé de las huestes, levántate contra mi Pastor y el compañero mío. Hiere al Pastor, y las ovejas serán dispersadas. Volveré mi mano contra los pequeños.
8 And it shall come to pass, [that] in all the land, says the Lord, two parts thereof shall be cut off and perish; but the third shall be left therein.
Acontecerá en toda la tierra, dice Yavé, que dos terceras partes serán cortadas de ella y se perderán. Pero la tercera parte será dejada en ella.
9 And I will bring the third [part] through the fire, and I will try them as silver is tried, and I will prove them as gold is proved: they shall call upon my name, and I will hear them, and say, This is my people: and they shall say, The Lord [is] my God.
Pasaré por el fuego a la tercera parte. Los refinaré como se refina la plata. Los probaré como se prueba el oro. Ellos invocarán mi Nombre, y Yo les responderé: Ellos son mi pueblo. Ellos dirán: Yavé es mi ʼElohim.
