< Zacharie 13 >

1 En ce jour-là il y aura une source ouverte pour la maison de David et pour les habitants de Jérusalem, pour le péché et la souillure.
In that day there shall be a fountain open to the house of David, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem: for the washing of the sinner, and of the unclean woman.
2 Et en ce jour-là, dit l'Éternel des armées, j'exterminerai du pays les noms des idoles, pour que leur mémoire se perde, et je bannirai aussi du pays les prophètes et l'esprit impur.
And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will destroy the names of idols out of the earth, and they shall be remembered no more: and I will take away the false prophets, and the unclean spirit out of the earth.
3 Que si quelqu'un prophétise encore, son père et sa mère, ses parents lui diront: « Tu ne dois pas vivre, car tu as proféré le mensonge au nom de l'Éternel; » et son père et sa mère, ses parents, le transperceront lui prophétisant.
And it shall come to pass, that when any man shall prophesy any more, his father and his mother that brought him into the world, shall say to him: Thou shalt not live: because thou best spoken a lie in the name of the Lord. And his father, and his mother, his parents, shall thrust him through, when he shall prophesy.
4 Et en ce jour-là les prophètes auront tous honte de leur vision eux prophétisant, et ils ne revêtiront plus le manteau velu pour tromper.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be confounded, every one by his own vision, when he shall prophesy, neither shall they be clad with a garment of sackcloth, to deceive:
5 Et chacun d'eux dira: Je ne suis point prophète, je suis laboureur, car quelqu'un me vendit dès ma jeunesse.
But he shall say: I am no prophet, I am a husbandman: for Adam is my example from my youth.
6 Et si on lui dit: Qu'est-ce donc que ces blessures que tu as aux mains? il dira: J'ai reçu ces coups dans la maison de mes amants.
And they shall say to him: What are these wounds in the midst of thy hands? And he shall say: With these I was wounded in the house of them that loved me.
7 Épée, réveille-toi! [fonds] sur mon pasteur et sur un homme qui est mon proche! dit l'Éternel des armées; frappe le pasteur, et le troupeau se dispersera, mais je reporterai ma main sur les petits.
Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that cleaveth to me, saith the Lord of hosts: strike the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn my hand to the little ones.
8 Et il arrivera dans tout le pays, dit l'Éternel, que les deux tiers en seront exterminés, périront, et que le tiers y survivra.
And there shall be in all the earth, saith the Lord, two parts in it shall be scattered, and shall perish: but the third part shall be left therein.
9 Et je mettrai le tiers au feu et les purifierai, comme on purifie l'argent, et les éprouverai, comme on éprouve l'or. Et ce tiers invoquera mon nom, et moi je l'exaucerai; je dirai: C'est mon peuple; et ils diront: L'Éternel est mon Dieu.
And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined: and I will try them as gold is tried. They shall call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say: Thou art my people: and they shall say: The Lord is my God.
