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].
“त्यस दिन दाऊदको घराना र यरूशलेमका वासिन्दाहरूका पाप र अशुद्धताको कारण तिनीहरूका निम्ति पानीको छहरा खोलिनेछ ।
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].
त्यस दिन, म भूमिबाट मूर्तिहरूका नाउँ मेटाइदिनेछु र तिनीहरूको कहिल्यै सम्झना हुनेछैन, परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ । म भूमिबाट अगमवक्ताहरू र अशुद्धताका आत्मालाई हटाइदिनेछु ।
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].
कुनै मानिसले अझै अगमवाणी गरेमा, त्यसको बुबा र त्यसलाई जन्माउने आमाले त्यसलाई भन्नेछन्, ‘तँ बाँच्नेछैनस्, किनभने तैँले परमप्रभुको नाउँमा झुटो बोल्छस्!’ अनि त्यसको बुबा र त्यसलाई जन्माउने आमाले त्यसले अगमवाणी बोल्दा त्यसलाई छेडिदिनेछन् ।
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.
त्यस दिन हरेक अगमवक्ता, अगमवाणी गर्न लाग्दा आफ्नो दर्शनको कारण शर्ममा पर्नेछ । यी अगमवक्ताहरूले अब मानिसहरूलाई धोकामा पार्न रौँ भएका लबेदा लगाउनेछैनन् ।
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!’
किनभने हरेकले भन्नेछ, ‘म अगमवक्ता होइनँ! म त माटोमा काम गर्ने मानिस हुँ, किनकि म जवान हुँदादेखि नै भूमिमा नै मैले काम गर्न थालेँ!’
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.’”
तर कसैले त्यसलाई भन्नेछ, ‘तेरा हातहरूका बिचमा भएका यी घाउ के हुन्?’ र त्यसले जवाफ दिनेछ, ‘म आफ्ना साथीभाइको घरमा हुँदा मलाईती चोट लागेका थिए ।’”
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].”
“ए तरवार! मेरो गोठालोको विरुद्ध उठ्, जो मेरो नजिक उभिएको छ, सेनाहरूका परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ । गोठालोलाई प्रहार गर्, र बगाल तितर-बितर हुनेछ! किनभने तल्लो वर्गकाहरूका विरुद्ध म मेरो हात उठाउनेछु ।
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.
र साराभूमिमा यस्तो हुनेछ - परमप्रभु घोषणा गर्नुहुन्छ, कि त्यसको दुई-तिहाइ भाग नाश हुनेछ! ती मानिसहरू नष्ट हुनेछन्, र एक-तिहाइमात्र बाँकी रहनेछ ।
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.’”
म ती एक-तिहाइलाई आगोबाट लैजानेछु र तिनीहरूलाई चाँदीलाई झैँ निखार्नेछु । सुनलाई झैँ म तिनीहरूको परिक्षण गर्नेछु । तिनीहरूले मेरो नाउँ पुकार्नेछन्, र म तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ यस्तो दिनेछु, ‘यी मेरा मानिस हुन्!’ र तिनीहरूले भन्नेछन्, ‘परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ!’”
