Zechariah 13

1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness.

١ «فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَتَفَجَّرُ يَنْبُوعٌ لِيُطَهِّرَ ذُرِّيَّةَ دَاوُدَ وَسُكَّانَ أُورُشَلِيمَ مِنْ إِثْمِهِمْ وَنَجَاسَتِهِمْ.

2 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, [that] I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.

٢ وَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَسْتَأْصِلُ أَسْمَاءَ الأَصْنَامِ مِنَ الأَرْضِ فَلا يَعُودُ لَهَا ذِكْرٌ، وَأُلاشِي الأَنْبِيَاءَ الْكَذَبَةَ وَالرُّوحَ النَّجِسَ مِنَ الأَرْضِ.

3 And it shall come to pass, [that] when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother that begat him shall say to him, Thou shalt not live; for thou speakest lies in the name of the LORD: and his father and his mother that begat him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.

٣ وَإِنْ تَنَبَّأَ أَحَدٌ فِيمَا بَعْدُ، يَطْعَنُهُ أَبُوهُ وَأُمُّهُ اللَّذَانِ أَنْجَبَاهُ قَائِلَيْنِ: لابُدَّ أَنْ تَمُوتَ لأَنَّكَ نَطَقْتَ بِالزُّورِ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ.

4 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision, when he hath prophesied; neither shall they wear a rough garment to deceive:

٤ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَعْتَرِي الْخِزْيُ كُلَّ نَبِيٍّ كَاذِبٍ يَتَنَبَّأُ مِنْ رُؤْيَاهُ، وَلا يَرْتَدِي مُسُوحَ الشَّعْرِ لِيَكْذِبَ.

5 But he shall say, I [am] no prophet, I [am] a husbandman; for man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.

٥ إِنَّمَا يَقُولُ: أَنَا لَسْتُ نَبِيًّا. أَنَا رَجُلٌ فَلّاحٌ أَحْرُثُ الأَرْضَ مُنْذُ صِبَايَ.

6 And [one] shall say to him, What [are] these wounds in thy hands? Then he shall answer, [Those] with which I was wounded [in] the house of my friends.

٦ وَعِنْدَمَا يَسْأَلُهُ أَحَدٌ: مَا هَذِهِ الْجُرُوحُ فِي يَدَيْكَ؟ يُجِيبُهُ: هِيَ الَّتِي جُرِحْتُ بِها فِي بَيْتِ أَحِبَّائِي».

7 Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man [that is] my fellow, saith the LORD of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn my hand upon the little ones.

٧ وَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: «اسْتَيْقِظْ أَيُّهَا السَّيْفُ وَهَاجِمْ رَاعِيَّ وَرَجُلَ رِفْقَتِي. اضْرِبِ الرَّاعِي فَتَتَبَدَّدَ الْخِرَافُ. وَلَكِنِّي أَرُدُّ يَدِي عَنِ الصِّغَارِ (أَيِ الْقِلَّةِ الْمُؤْمِنَةِ).

8 And it shall come to pass, [that] in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off [and] die; but the third shall be left therein.

٨ يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ فَيَفْنَى ثُلْثَا شَعْبِ أَرْضِي وَيَبْقَى ثُلْثُهُمْ حَيًّا فَقَطْ.

9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It [is] my people; and they shall say, The LORD [is] my God.

٩ فَأُجِيزُ هَذَا الثُّلْثَ فِي النَّارِ لأُنَقِّيَهُ تَنْقِيَةَ الْفِضَّةِ، وَأَمْحَصَهُ كَمَا يُمْحَصُ الذَّهَبُ. هُوَ يَدْعُو بِاسْمِي وَأَنَا أَسْتَجِيبُهُ. أَنَا أَقُولُ: هُوَ شَعْبِي، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: الرَّبُّ هُوَ إِلَهِي».
