Zechariah 13
1 At that time [it will be as though] [MET] there will be a fountain from which water flows continually to cleanse the descendants [MTY] of [King] David and [all] the [other] people in Jerusalem from the guilt of the sins that they have committed, [especially] from becoming unacceptable to me [by worshiping idols].
Hote atueng navah, Devit imthungnaw hoi Jerusalem khocanaw e yonnae hoi khinnae naw hah pâsu nahanelah, tuiphuek teh a phuek han.
2 The Commander of the armies of angels says, “At that time, I will prevent [people from even mentioning] the names of the idols in their country, and no one will remember them any more. I will also expel from the land all the people who falsely claim that they are prophets [DOU].
Ransahu BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, ram dawk kaawm e meikaphawknaw e minnaw hah apinihai bout panue hoeh nahanelah, hatnae tueng dawk, kai ni koung ka raphoe han. Profet katawknaw hai thoseh, kakhine muithanaw hai thoseh, ram dawk hoi ka pâlei han.
3 If someone continues to prophesy [falsely], his parents must say to him, ‘You have told lies saying that Yahweh [MTY] gave those messages to you, so you must be executed.’ [So] if someone prophesies [like that], his own father and mother must stab him [and kill him].
Tami buetbuet touh ni profet thaw tawk rah boipawiteh, kacunkung, manu na pa naw ni nang teh Jehovah min lahoi laithoe na dei dawkvah, na due han telah ati. Profet thaw a tawk lahun nah a manu na pa naw ni ahni teh pawkkayawng lah a thut awh han.
4 At that time, the false prophets will be ashamed [that they claimed to have received messages from me in] their visions and prophesies [that they told to people]. They will no [longer] deceive people by wearing the clothes [that prophets usually wear], clothes made of [animals’] hair.
Hatnae tueng nah, profet teh amamae a dei e vision dawk a kaya awh han. Ayâ dum hane ngai dawkvah khohna hai khohnat mahoeh.
5 [So] each of them will say, ‘I am not [really] a prophet; I am a farmer, and I have been a farmer on my land ever since I was a boy!’
Kai teh profet nahoeh law thaw ka tawk e doeh. Ka nawca hoi ayâ koe san ka toung toe telah ati han.
6 But someone, [seeing the wounds on one of those prophet’s bodies, will suspect that he injured himself during rituals to worship idols, and he] will ask ‘Why are those wounds on your body?’ And he [will lie, saying] ‘I was injured [when I was] at my friend’s house.’”
Ayâ ni hai na kut dawk e a hmânaw hah bangtelane telah na pacei pawiteh, hote hmânaw teh ka hui im vah ka ca e hmânaw doeh telah bout a dei han.
7 The Commander of the armies of angels says, “[My] sword [APO] must strike [the one who is like] [MET] my shepherd, the man who is (my companion/very (close/dear) to me). When the shepherd is killed, [those who are like] [MET] his sheep will scatter. [And those who are like] [MET] my little sheep will [also] be attacked [IDM].”
Ransahu BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, kaie tukhoumkung avanglah, kaie ka huikonaw e avanglah, kâhlaw haw. Tukhoumkung thet haw. Hottelah na tetpawiteh, tunaw teh pareng kâkapek awh han. Tu canaw lathueng vah kut bout ka pathung han.
8 Yahweh [also] says, “Two-thirds [of the people in Judah] will die [DOU]. [Only] one-third [of the people in Judah] will remain alive.
BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, ram puengpa thung e tami, pung thum pung hni touh ka raphoe vaiteh, pung touh ka pâhlung sak han.
9 And I will test the ones that remain alive [by causing them to experience great difficulties, to find out if they will continue to worship me]. I will purify them like [MET] a man purifies gold or silver by putting it into a [very hot] fire. [Then] my people will call to me [MTY] [for help], and I will answer them. I will say [to them], ‘You are my people,’ and they will say, ‘Yahweh is our God.’”
Hote phu touh teh hmai lungui ka ceisak han. Ngun sôlêi e patetlah ka sôlêi han. Sui tanouk e patetlah ka tanouk han. Ahnimouh ni ka min lahoi ratoum awh vaiteh ka thai pouh han. Ahnimouh teh ka miphun telah ka kaw han. Ahnimouh ni hai Jehovah teh kaimae Cathut doeh ati awh han.
