< Zacharie 13 >

1 En ce jour-là, une source sera ouverte pour la maison de David et pour les habitants de Jérusalem, pour le péché et pour l’impureté.
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.
2 Et il arrivera, en ce jour-là, dit l’Éternel des armées, que je retrancherai du pays les noms des idoles, et on ne s’en souviendra plus; et j’ôterai aussi du pays les prophètes et l’esprit impur.
And it shall come to pass in that day, says Jehovah of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered. And I will also cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.
3 Et il arrivera que, si un homme prophétise encore, son père et sa mère qui l’ont engendré, lui diront: Tu ne vivras pas, car tu dis des mensonges au nom de l’Éternel. Et son père et sa mère qui l’ont engendré, le transperceront quand il prophétisera.
And it shall come to pass that, when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother who begot him shall say to him, Thou shall not live, for thou speak lies in the name of Jehovah. And his father and his mother who begot him shall thrust him through when he prophesies.
4 Et il arrivera, en ce jour-là, que les prophètes auront honte, chacun de sa vision, quand il prophétisera, et ils ne se vêtiront plus d’un manteau de poil pour mentir. –
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed each one of his vision, when he prophesies, nor shall they wear a hairy mantle to deceive.
5 Et il dira: Je ne suis pas prophète; je suis un homme qui laboure la terre; car l’homme m’a acquis [comme esclave] dès ma jeunesse.
But he shall say, I am no prophet. I am a tiller of the ground, for I have been made a bondman from my youth.
6 Et on lui dira: Quelles sont ces blessures à tes mains? Et il dira: Celles dont j’ai été blessé dans la maison de mes amis.
And a man shall say to him, What are these wounds between thine arms? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.
7 Épée, réveille-toi contre mon berger, contre l’homme [qui est] mon compagnon, dit l’Éternel des armées; frappe le berger, et le troupeau sera dispersé; et je tournerai ma main sur les petits.
Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man who is my companion, says Jehovah of hosts. Smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered. And I will turn my hand upon the little ones.
8 Et il arrivera dans tout le pays, dit l’Éternel, que deux parties y seront retranchées et expireront; mais un tiers y demeurera de reste.
And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, says Jehovah, two parts therein shall be cut off and die, but the third shall be left in it.
9 Et le tiers, je l’amènerai dans le feu, et je les affinerai comme on affine l’argent, et je les éprouverai comme on éprouve l’or. Ils invoqueront mon nom, et moi, je leur répondrai; je dirai: C’est ici mon peuple; et lui, dira: L’Éternel est mon Dieu.
And I will bring the third part into 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, Jehovah is my God.
