< 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 will be a fountain open to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for the washing of the transgressor and of the defiled woman.
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 this shall be in that day, says the Lord of hosts: I will disperse the names of the idols from the earth, and they will not be remembered any longer. And I will take away the false prophets and the unclean spirit from the earth.
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 this shall be: when any devotee will continue to prophesy, his father and his mother, who conceived him, will say to him, “You shall not live, because you have been speaking a lie in the name of the Lord.” And his father and his mother, his own parents, will pierce him, when he will prophesy.
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 this shall be: In that day, the prophets will be confounded, each one by his own vision, when he will prophesy. Neither will they be covered with a garment of sackcloth in order 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 will say, “I am not a prophet; I am a man of agriculture. For Adam has been my example 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 they will say to him, “What are these wounds in the middle of your hands?” And he will say, “I was wounded with these in the house of those who love me.”
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 spear, against my shepherd and against the man that clings to me, says the Lord of hosts. Strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered. And I will turn my hand to 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 there will be in all the earth, says the Lord, two parts in it will be scattered and will pass away, and the third part will be left behind.
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 lead the third part through fire, and I will burn them just as silver is burned, and I will test them just as gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will heed them. I will say, “You are my people.” And they will say, “The Lord is my God.”
