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].
I A LA hoi, e hoohuaiia auanei he punawai no ka ohana a Davida, a no na kanaka o Ierusalema, No ka hewa a me ka haumia.
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].
Eia hoi kekahi ia la, wahi a Iehova o na kaua, E anai aku au i na inoa o na kii mai ka aina aku, I hoomanao hou ole ia lakou; A e hookuke aku hoi au i na kaula a me ka uhane haukae mai ka aina aku.
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].
A e hiki auanei, ina e wanana kekahi kanaka, Alaila e i aku ai kona makuakane a me kona makuwahine nana ia i hanau, Aole oe e ola; no ka mea, he olelo hoopunipuni kau ma ka inoa o Iehova: A o kona makuakane a me kona makuwahine nana ia i hanau, E hou iho laua ia ia, i kana wanana ana.
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.
Eia hoi kekahi ia la, e hilahila no kela kaula keia kaula, I kona hihio, ia ia i wanana mai ai; Aole hoi ia e hoaahu ae i ka aahu hulu i mea e hoopunipuni ai:
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!’
Aka, e olelo auanei oia, Aole au he kaula, Aka, he kanaka mahiai au, No ka mea, na ke kanaka au i kuai ai mai kuu wa kamalii mai.
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.’”
A e olelo aku kekahi ia ia, O ke aha keia mau wahi eha ma kou mau lima? E i mai kela, Oia kahi a'u i hoehaia'i, Iloko o ka hale o ka poe i aloha mai ia'u.
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].”
E ka pahikaua, e ala ku e oe i kuu Kahuhipa, I ke kanaka Hoa o'u, wahi a Iehova o na kaua. E hahau i ke Kahuhipa, a e hooauheeia na hipa; E hoohuli aku au i kuu lima maluna o ka poe liilii.
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.
A iloko o ka aina a pau, wahi a Iehova, E hookiia'i na hapakolu elua o ka poe iloko, a make; Aka, e hookoeia kekahi hapa ilaila.
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.’”
A e alakai au i kekahi hapakolu iwaena o ke ahi, A e hoohehee au ia lakou e like me ka hooheheeia ana o ke kala, E hoao hoi au ia lakou e like me ka hoao ana i ke gula: E kahea mai ia poe i kuu inoa, a e hoolohe au ia lakou: E olelo auanei au, O ko'u poe kanaka keia; A e olelo hoi lakou, O Iehova ko'u Akua.
