< Zekaria 13 >
1 “Pazuva iro imba yaDhavhidhi navagari vomuJerusarema, vachadziurirwa chitubu kuti vanatswe kubva pachivi nokusachena.
In that day there shall be a fountaine opened to the house of Dauid, and to the inhabitants of Ierusalem, for sinne and for vncleannesse.
2 “Pazuva iro, ndichabvisa mazita ezvifananidzo panyika, uye haangazorangarirwizve,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose! “Ndichabvisa zvose vaprofita nemweya wokusachena panyika.
And in that day, sayth the Lord of hostes, I will cut off the names of the idoles out of the land: and they shall no more be remembred: and I will cause the prophets, and the vncleane spirit to depart out of the land.
3 Uye kana pana ani zvake acharamba achiprofita, baba vake namai vake vakamubereka, vachati kwaari, ‘Unofanira kufa, nokuti wakareva nhema muzita raJehovha.’ Paachaprofita, vabereki vake vachamubaya.
And when any shall yet prophesie, his father and his mother that begate him, shall say vnto him, Thou shalt not liue: for thou speakest lies in the name of the Lord: and his father and his mother that begat him, shall thrust him through, when he prophesieth.
4 “Pazuva iro muprofita mumwe nomumwe achanyara nokuda kwechiratidzo chechiprofita chake. Haangazopfeki nguo yemvere yomuprofita kuti anyengere.
And in that day shall the prophetes be ashamed euery one of his vision, when he hath prophesied: neither shall they weare a rough garment to deceiue.
5 Achati, ‘Handisi muprofita. Ndiri murimi; ivhu ndiwo upenyu hwangu kubva pauduku hwangu.’
But he shall say, I am no Prophet: I am an husbandman: for man taught me to be an heardman from my youth vp.
6 Kana mumwe munhu akamubvunza achiti, ‘Maronda aya ari pamuviri wako ndeeiko?’ achapindura achiti, ‘Maronda andakakuvadzwa paimba yeshamwari dzangu.’
And one shall say vnto him, What are these woundes in thine hands? Then he shall answere, Thus was I wounded in the house of my friendes.
7 “Muka, iwe munondo, urwise mufudzi, urwise munhu ari pedyo neni!” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose. “Rova mufudzi, makwai agopararira, uye ndichasimudza ruoko rwangu kuti rurwise madiki acho.
Arise, O sword, vpon my shepheard, and vpon the man, that is my fellow, sayth the Lord of hostes: smite the shepheard, and the sheepe shall be scattered: and I will turne mine hand vpon the litle ones.
8 Munyika yose,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “zvikamu zviviri muzvitatu zvichaurayiwa zvigoparara; asi chikamu chimwe chete muzvitatu ndicho chichasaramo.
And in all the land, sayeth the Lord, two partes therein shall be cut off, and die: but the third shall be left therein.
9 Chikamu chimwe chete ichochi muzvitatu ndichachiisa mumoto; ndichavanatsa sesirivha uye ndichavaedza segoridhe. Vachadana kuzita rangu uye ndichavapindura; ndichati, ‘Ndivo vanhu vangu.’ Uye ivo vachati, ‘Jehovha ndiye Mwari wedu.’”
And I will bring that third part thorowe the fire, and will fine them as the siluer is fined, and will trye them as golde is tryed: they shall call on my Name, and I will heare them: I will say, It is my people, and they shall say, The Lord is my God.
