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, une source s’ouvrira à la maison de David et aux habitants de Jérusalem pour donner de l’eau expiatoire et de l’eau lustrale.
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.
Il arrivera, en ce jour, dit l’Eternel-Cebaot, que j’éliminerai de ce pays les noms des idoles, si bien qu’il n’en sera plus fait mention; de même les prophètes et l’esprit d’impureté, je les ferai disparaître du pays.
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.
Que si quelqu’un se met encore à prophétiser, son père et sa mère, auteurs de ses jours, lui diront: "Tu ne vivras pas, parce que tu as dit des mensonges au nom de l’Eternel!" Et père et mère, auteurs de ses jours, le transperceront quand il s’avisera de prophétiser.
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.
Aussi, en ce jour, les prophètes auront-ils tous honte de leurs visions, lorsqu’ils voudront prophétiser; ils ne revêtiront plus le manteau de poil pour mieux tromper.
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.
Chacun d’eux dira: "Je ne suis point prophète, je suis un homme qui travaille la terre, car dès ma jeunesse quelqu’un m’avait acquis."
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 si on lui demande: "Pourquoi ces plaies sur tes mains?" il répondra: "C’Est que j’ai été maltraité dans la maison de ceux qui devaient m’aimer."
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.
Epée, va te ruer contre mon pasteur, contre l’homme dont j’ai fait mon compagnon, dit l’Eternel-Cebaot; frappe le pasteur pour que les brebis se dispersent; mais je tournerai ma main vers 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 que, dans tout le pays, dit l’Eternel, deux tiers seront retranchés et périront, et qu’un tiers seulement y restera en vie.
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 ce tiers, je le ferai passer au feu, et je l’affinerai comme on affine l’argent, je l’éprouverai comme on éprouve l’or. II invoquera mon nom et moi, je l’exaucerai. Je dirai: "C’Est là mon peuple!" Et lui dira: "L’Eternel est mon Dieu!"
