Zechariah 13

bayyom hahu yihyeh maqor niftakh levet david uleyosheve yerushalai͏m lekhattat uleniddah

In that day a fountain shall be open to the House of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem for purging and lustration.

vehayah vayyom hahu ne'um Adonai tseva'ot akhrit et-shemot ha'atsabbim min-ha'arets velo yizzakheru od vegam et-hannevi'im ve'et-ruakh hattumah a'avir min-ha'arets

In that day, too—declares GOD of Hosts—I will erase the very names of the idols from the land; they shall not be uttered anymore. And I will also make the “prophets” and the impure spirit vanish from the land.

vehayah ki-yinnave ish od ve'ameru elayw aviv ve'immo yoledayw lo tikhyeh ki sheqer dibbarta beshem Adonai udeqaruhu avihu ve'immo yoledayw behinnave'o

If some man “prophesies” thereafter, his own father and mother, who brought him into the world, will say to him, “You shall die, for you have lied in the name of GOD”; and his own father and mother, who brought him into the world, will put him to death when he “prophesies.”

vehayah bayyom hahu yevoshu hannevi'im ish mekhezyono behinnave'oto velo yilbeshu adderet se'ar lema'an kakhesh

In that day, every such “prophet” will be ashamed of the “visions” [he had] when he “prophesied.” In order to deceive, he will not wear a hairy mantle,

ve'amar lo navi anokhi ish-oved adamah anokhi ki adam hiqnani minne'uray

and he will declare, “I am not a ‘prophet’; I am a tiller of the soil; you see, I was plied with the red stuff from my youth on.”

ve'amar elayw mah hammakkot ha'elleh ben yadekha ve'amar asher hukketi bet me'ahavay

And if he is asked, “What are those sores on your back?” he will reply, “From being beaten in the homes of my friends.”

kherev uri al-ro'i ve'al-gever amiti ne'um Adonai tseva'ot hakh et-haro'eh utefutsena hatson vahashivoti yadi al-hatso'arim

O sword! Rouse yourself against My shepherd, The man in charge of My flock —says GOD of Hosts. Strike down the shepherd And let the flock scatter; And I will also turn My hand Against all the shepherd boys.

vehayah vekhol-ha'arets ne'um-Adonai pi-shenayim bah yikkaretu yigva'u vehashelishit yivvater bah

Throughout the land —declares GOD— Two-thirds shall perish, shall die, And one-third of it shall survive.

veheveti et-hashelishit ba'esh utseraftim kitsrof et-hakkesef uvekhantim kivkhon et-hazzahav hu yiqra vishmi va'ani e'eneh oto amarti ammi hu vehu yomar Adonai elohay

That third I will put into the fire, And I will smelt them as one smelts silver And test them as one tests gold. They will invoke Me by name, And I will respond to them. I will declare, “You are My people,” And they will declare, “ The ETERNAL is our God!”
