< Zechariah 13 >

1 "In that day there will be a spring opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for uncleanness.
På hin Dag skal en Kilde vælde frem for Davids Hus og Jerusalems Indbyggere mod Synd og Urenhed.
2 It will come to pass in that day, says YHWH of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they will be remembered no more. I will also cause the prophets and the spirit of impurity to pass out of the land.
Og på hin bag, lyder det fra Hærskarers HERRE, udrydder jeg Afgudernes Navne af Landet, så de ikke mer skal ihukommes; også Profeterne og Urenhedens Ånd driver jeg ud af Landet.
3 It will happen that, when anyone still prophesies, then his father and his mother who bore him will tell him, 'You must die, because you speak lies in the name of YHWH;' and his father and his mother who bore him will stab him when he prophesies.
Når nogen da atter profeterer, skal hans egne Forældre, hans Fader og Moder, sige til ham: Du har forbrudt dit Liv, thi du har talt Løgn i HERRENs Navn." Og hans egne Forældre, hans Fader og Moder, skal gennembore ham, når han profeterer.
4 It will happen in that day, that the prophets will each be ashamed of his vision, when he prophesies; neither will they wear a hairy mantle to deceive:
På hin Dag skal hver en Profet skamme sig over sine Syner, når han profeterer, og han skal ikke klæde sig i lådden Kappe for at føre Folk bag Lyset,
5 but he will say, 'I am no prophet, I am a tiller of the ground; for I have been made a bondservant from my youth.'
men sige: "Jeg er ingen Profet; jeg er Bonde og har dyrket Jord fra min Ungdom."
6 One will say to him, 'What are these wounds between your hands?' Then he will answer, 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.'
Og spørger man ham: "Hvad er det for Sår på dit Bryst?" skal han sige: "Dem fik jeg i mine Boleres Hus."
7 "Awake, sword, against my shepherd, and against the man who is close to me," says YHWH of hosts. "I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered; and I will turn my hand against the little ones.
Frem, Sværd, imod min Hyrde, mod Manden, som står mig nær, så lyder det fra Hærskarers HERRE. Hyrden vil jeg slå, så Fårehjorden spredes; mod Drengene løfter jeg Hånden.
8 It shall happen that in all the land," says YHWH, "two parts in it will be cut off and die; but the third will be left in it.
Og i hele Landet lyder det fra HERREN, skal to Tredjedele udryddes og udånde, men een Tredjedel skal levnes.
9 I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, 'It is my people;' and they will say, 'YHWH is my God.'"
Og denne Tredjedel fører jeg i Ild og renser den, som man renser Sølv, prøver den, som man prøver Guld. Den skal påkalde mit Navn, og jeg svarer; jeg siger: "Den er mit Folk." Og den skal sige: "HERREN er min Gud."
