Zakaria 13
1 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hisy loharano voasokatra ho an’ ny taranak’ i Davida sy ho an’ ny mponina any Jerosalema hanafaka fahotana sy fahalotoana.
"In that day there will be a spring opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for uncleanness.
2 Ary amin’ izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, dia hofoanako ny anaran-tsampy amin’ ny tany, ka tsy hotsarovana intsony ireny; ary hesoriko amin’ ny tany ny mpaminany sy ny fanahim-pahalotoana.
It will come to pass in that day, says the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they will be remembered no more. I will also cause the prophets and the spirit of impurity to pass out of the land.
3 Ary raha mbola hisy haminany, ny ray aman-dreniny izay niteraka azy dia hanao aminy hoe: Tsy ho velona ianao, satria miteny lainga amin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah; ary ny ray aman-dreniny izay niteraka azy dia handefona azy, raha maminany izy.
It will happen that, when anyone still prophesies, then his father and his mother who bore him will tell him, 'You must die, because you speak lies in the name of the LORD;' and his father and his mother who bore him will stab him when he prophesies.
4 Ary amin’ izany andro izany ny mpaminany dia samy hahazo henatra noho ny fahitany avy, raha maminany; ary tsy hikapôty volom-biby hamitahana izy,
It will happen in that day, that the prophets will each be ashamed of his vision, when he prophesies; neither will they wear a hairy mantle to deceive:
5 fa hanao hoe: Tsy mpaminany aho, fa mpiasa tany, satria nisy nanandevo ahy, fony aho mbola kely.
but he will say, 'I am no prophet, I am a tiller of the ground; for I have been made a bondservant from my youth.'
6 Dia hisy hanao aminy hoe: Ka inona itony ratra amin’ ny tananao itony? Dia hovaliany hoe: Naratra tao an-tranon’ ny sakaizako ireny.
One will say to him, 'What are these wounds between your hands?' Then he will answer, 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.'
7 Mifohaza, ry sabatra, hamely ny mpiandriko sy ny lehilahy namako, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro. Asio ny mpiandry, dia hihahaka ny ondry, ary hamerina ny tanako ho amin’ ny madinika Aho.
"Awake, sword, against my shepherd, and against the man who is close to me," says the LORD of hosts. "I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered; and I will turn my hand against the little ones.
8 Ary amin’ ny tany rehetra, hoy Jehovah, ny androatokony dia haringana ho faty ao; fa ny ampahatelony sisa no havela ao kosa.
It shall happen that in all the land," says the LORD, "two parts in it will be cut off and die; but the third will be left in it.
9 Ary ho entiko miditra amin’ ny afo ny ampahatelony, ary harendrika toy ny fandrendrika volafotsy izy, ary hizahako toetra toy ny fizaha toetra ny volamena izy; hiantso ny anarako izy, ary Izaho hamaly azy; Izaho hanao hoe: Oloko izy ary izy hanao hoe: Jehovah no Andriamanitro.
I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, 'It is my people;' and they will say, 'The LORD is my God.'"
