< Zechariah 13 >

1 “In that day there is a fountain opened To the house of David And to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, For sin and for impurity.
En ce jour-là, une source sera ouverte pour la maison de David et pour les habitants de Jérusalem, pour le péché et pour l’impureté.
2 And it has come to pass in that day,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts, “I cut off the names of the idols from the land, And they are not remembered anymore, And also the prophets and the spirit of uncleanness I cause to pass away from the land.
Et il arrivera, en ce jour-là, dit l’Éternel des armées, que je retrancherai du pays les noms des idoles, et on ne s’en souviendra plus; et j’ôterai aussi du pays les prophètes et l’esprit impur.
3 And it has been, when one prophesies again, That his parents, his father and his mother, Have said to him, You do not live, For you have spoken falsehood in the Name of YHWH, And his father and his mother, his parents, Have pierced him through in his prophesying.
Et il arrivera que, si un homme prophétise encore, son père et sa mère qui l’ont engendré, lui diront: Tu ne vivras pas, car tu dis des mensonges au nom de l’Éternel. Et son père et sa mère qui l’ont engendré, le transperceront quand il prophétisera.
4 And it has come to pass in that day, The prophets are ashamed, each of his vision, in his prophesying, And they do not put on a hairy robe to deceive.
Et il arrivera, en ce jour-là, que les prophètes auront honte, chacun de sa vision, quand il prophétisera, et ils ne se vêtiront plus d’un manteau de poil pour mentir. –
5 And [one] has said, I am not a prophet, A man—I am a tiller of ground, For ground [is] my possession from my youth.
Et il dira: Je ne suis pas prophète; je suis un homme qui laboure la terre; car l’homme m’a acquis [comme esclave] dès ma jeunesse.
6 And [one] has said to him, What [are] these wounds in your hands? And he has said, Because I was struck [at] home by my lovers.
Et on lui dira: Quelles sont ces blessures à tes mains? Et il dira: Celles dont j’ai été blessé dans la maison de mes amis.
7 Sword, awake against My Shepherd, And against a hero—My Fellow,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts. “Strike the Shepherd, and the flock is scattered, And I have put back My hand on the little ones.
Épée, réveille-toi contre mon berger, contre l’homme [qui est] mon compagnon, dit l’Éternel des armées; frappe le berger, et le troupeau sera dispersé; et je tournerai ma main sur les petits.
8 And it has come to pass, In all the land,” a declaration of YHWH, “Two parts in it are cut off—they expire, And the third is left in it.
Et il arrivera dans tout le pays, dit l’Éternel, que deux parties y seront retranchées et expireront; mais un tiers y demeurera de reste.
9 And I have brought the third into fire, And refined them like a refining of silver, And have tried them like a trying of gold, It calls in My Name, and I answer it, I have said, It [is] My people, And it says, YHWH [is] my God!”
Et le tiers, je l’amènerai dans le feu, et je les affinerai comme on affine l’argent, et je les éprouverai comme on éprouve l’or. Ils invoqueront mon nom, et moi, je leur répondrai; je dirai: C’est ici mon peuple; et lui, dira: L’Éternel est mon Dieu.
