Zaccharias Propheta 13
1 In die illa erit fons patens domui David et habitantibus Jerusalem, in ablutionem peccatoris et menstruatæ.
On that day a spring will be opened and continually flow for the house of David and for the people of Jerusalem to wash away their sin and impurity.
2 Et erit in die illa, dicit Dominus exercituum: disperdam nomina idolorum de terra, et non memorabuntur ultra: et pseudoprophetas, et spiritum immundum auferam de terra.
On that day, declares the Lord Almighty, I will wipe out idol worship from the land—the idols will not be remembered any longer. I will remove the false prophets and the spirit of impurity from the land.
3 Et erit: cum prophetaverit quispiam ultra, dicent ei pater ejus et mater ejus, qui genuerunt eum: Non vives, quia mendacium locutus es in nomine Domini: et configent eum pater ejus et mater ejus, genitores ejus, cum prophetaverit.
If anyone continues to prophesy, his father and mother to whom he was born will tell him, “You shall not live, because you have told lies in the Lord's name.” Then his parents shall kill him because he has prophesied.
4 Et erit: in die illa confundentur prophetæ, unusquisque ex visione sua cum prophetaverit: nec operientur pallio saccino, ut mentiantur:
On that day such prophets will be too humiliated to prophesy their supposed visions. In order to deceive they will not put on their prophet's clothes made of coarse hair.
5 sed dicet: Non sum propheta: homo agricola ego sum, quoniam Adam exemplum meum ab adolescentia mea.
They will say, “I'm not a prophet, I'm a farmer. I've worked on the land since I was a child.”
6 Et dicetur ei: Quid sunt plagæ istæ in medio manuum tuarum? Et dicet: His plagatus sum in domo eorum qui diligebant me.
If somebody asks him, “What are those wounds on your back?” he will answer, “I was wounded in my friend's house.”
7 Framea, suscitare super pastorem meum, et super virum cohærentem mihi, dicit Dominus exercituum: percute pastorem, et dispergentur oves: et convertam manum meam ad parvulos.
Wake up, my sword! Attack my shepherd, the man who stands beside me! declares the Lord. Strike the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered, and I will raise my hand against the lambs.
8 Et erunt in omni terra, dicit Dominus: partes duæ in ea dispergentur, et deficient: et tertia pars relinquetur in ea.
Two thirds of the people of the land will be cut down, only one third will remain, says the Lord.
9 Et ducam tertiam partem per ignem, et uram eos sicut uritur argentum, et probabo eos sicut probatur aurum. Ipse vocabit nomen meum, et ego exaudiam eum. Dicam: Populus meus es: et ipse dicet: Dominus Deus meus.
I will place this one third in the fire, and I will refine them as silver is refined, and test them as gold is tested. They will call on me for help, and I will answer them. I will say, “These are my people,” and they will say, “The Lord is my God.”
