< Zacharie 13 >

1 En ce jour-là, une source sera ouverte Pour la maison de David et les habitants de Jérusalem, Pour le péché et pour l’impureté.
“In that day there is a fountain opened To the house of David And to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, For sin and for impurity.
2 En ce jour-là, dit l’Éternel des armées, J’exterminerai du pays les noms des idoles, Afin qu’on ne s’en souvienne plus; J’ôterai aussi du pays les prophètes et l’esprit d’impureté.
And it has come to pass in that day,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts, “I cut off the names of the idols from the land, And they are not remembered anymore, And also the prophets and the spirit of uncleanness I cause to pass away from the land.
3 Si quelqu’un 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 has been, when one prophesies again, That his parents, his father and his mother, Have said to him, You do not live, For you have spoken falsehood in the Name of YHWH, And his father and his mother, his parents, Have pierced him through in his prophesying.
4 En ce jour-là, les prophètes rougiront de leurs visions Quand ils prophétiseront, Et ils ne revêtiront plus un manteau de poil pour mentir.
And it has come to pass in that day, The prophets are ashamed, each of his vision, in his prophesying, And they do not put on a hairy robe to deceive.
5 Chacun d’eux dira: Je ne suis pas prophète, Je suis laboureur, Car on m’a acheté dès ma jeunesse.
And [one] has said, I am not a prophet, A man—I am a tiller of ground, For ground [is] my possession from my youth.
6 Et si on lui demande: D’où viennent ces blessures que tu as aux mains? Il répondra: C’est dans la maison de ceux qui m’aimaient que je les ai reçues.
And [one] has said to him, What [are] these wounds in your hands? And he has said, Because I was struck [at] home by my lovers.
7 Épée, lève-toi sur mon pasteur Et sur l’homme qui est mon compagnon! Dit l’Éternel des armées. Frappe le pasteur, et que les brebis se dispersent! Et je tournerai ma main vers les faibles.
Sword, awake against My Shepherd, And against a hero—My Fellow,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts. “Strike the Shepherd, and the flock is scattered, And I have put back My hand on the little ones.
8 Dans tout le pays, dit l’Éternel, Les deux tiers seront exterminés, périront, Et l’autre tiers restera.
And it has come to pass, In all the land,” a declaration of YHWH, “Two parts in it are cut off—they expire, And the third is left in it.
9 Je mettrai ce tiers dans le feu, Et je le purifierai comme on purifie l’argent, Je l’éprouverai comme on éprouve l’or. Il invoquera mon nom, et je l’exaucerai; Je dirai: C’est mon peuple! Et il dira: L’Éternel est mon Dieu!
And I have brought the third into fire, And refined them like a refining of silver, And have tried them like a trying of gold, It calls in My Name, and I answer it, I have said, It [is] My people, And it says, YHWH [is] my God!”
