< Zacarías 13 >
1 Aquel día habrá un manantial abierto para la casa de David y los habitantes de Jerusalén, para la purificación del pecado y de la impureza.
On that day shall there be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for cleansing from sin and for purification.
2 Ese día, dice Yavé, de las huestes, eliminaré de la tierra los nombres de los ídolos, y nunca más serán recordados. Desapareceré de la tierra a sus profetas y al espíritu de impureza.
And it shall come to pass on that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall not be remembered any more: and also the prophets and the unclean spirit will I remove out of the land.
3 Sucederá que si alguno vuelve a profetizar, los padres que lo engendraron le dirán: ¡No vivirás, porque hablaste falsedad en el Nombre de Yavé! Y sus padres que lo engendraron lo traspasarán cuando profetice.
And it shall come to pass, if any one should yet prophesy, that his father and his mother who have begotten him shall say unto him, Thou shalt not live; for falsely hast thou spoken in the name of the Lord: and his father and his mother who have begotten him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.
4 Aquel día esos profetas se avergonzarán de sus visiones y profecías. Nunca más se vestirán con un manto de pelo áspero para engañar.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed every one because of his vision, when he prophesieth; and they shall not clothe themselves with a hairy cloak in order to deceive.
5 Y dirá: No soy profeta, sino labrador de la tierra, pues estuve en el campo desde mi juventud.
But he will say, I am no prophet, a man that tilleth the ground am I; for some one hath taught me to keep cattle from my youth.
6 Le preguntarán: ¿Por qué tienes estas heridas en tus manos? Y él responderá: Con ellas fui herido en la casa de mis amigos.
And should some one say unto him, What are these wounds between thy hands? Then will he say, Those with which I have been wounded in the house of my [vicious] friends.
7 Oh espada, dice Yavé de las huestes, levántate contra mi Pastor y el compañero mío. Hiere al Pastor, y las ovejas serán dispersadas. Volveré mi mano contra los pequeños.
Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man whom I have associated with me, saith the Lord of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; but I will turn my hand toward the feeble ones.
8 Acontecerá en toda la tierra, dice Yavé, que dos terceras partes serán cortadas de ella y se perderán. Pero la tercera parte será dejada en ella.
And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts [of those] therein shall be cut off, shall perish; but the third part shall be left therein.
9 Pasaré por el fuego a la tercera parte. Los refinaré como se refina la plata. Los probaré como se prueba el oro. Ellos invocarán mi Nombre, y Yo les responderé: Ellos son mi pueblo. Ellos dirán: Yavé es mi ʼElohim.
And I will bring the third part into the fire, and I will refine them as one refineth silver, and will probe them as gold is probed: they will call on my name, and I will answer their prayer; I will say, They arc my people; and they will say, The Lord is my God.
