Zechariah 13

1 Ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἔσται πᾶς τόπος διανοιγόμενος τῷ οἴκῳ Δαυὶδ, καὶ τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν Ἱερουσαλὴμ εἰς τὴν μετακίνησιν, καὶ εἰς τὸν χωρισμόν.

2 Καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, λέγει Κύριος σαβαὼθ, ἐξολοθρεύσω τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν εἰδώλων ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς, καὶ οὐκ ἔτι αὐτῶν ἔσται μνεία· καὶ τοὺς ψευδοπροφήτας, καὶ τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἀκάθαρτον ἐξαρῶ ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς.

3 Καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν προφητεύσῃ ἄνθρωπος ἔτι, καὶ ἐρεῖ πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ, οἱ γεννήσαντες αὐτὸν, οὐ ζήσῃ, ὅτι ψευδῆ ἐλάλησας ἐπʼ ὀνόματι Κυρίου· καὶ συμποδιοῦσιν αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ, οἱ γεννήσαντες αὐτὸν, ἐν τῷ προφητεύειν αὐτόν.

4 Καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ καταισχυνθήσονται οἱ προφῆται, ἕκαστος ἐκ τῆς ὁράσεως αὐτοῦ, ἐν τῷ προφητεύειν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐνδύσονται δέῤῥιν τριχίνην, ἀνθʼ ὧν ἐψεύσαντο.

5 Καὶ ἐρεῖ, οὐκ εἰμὶ προφήτης ἐγὼ, διότι ἄνθρωπος ἐργαζόμενος τὴν γῆν ἐγώ εἰμι, ὅτι ἄνθρωπος ἐγέννησέ με ἐκ νεότητός μου.

6 Καὶ ἐρῶ πρὸς αὐτὸν, τί αἱ πληγαὶ αὗται ἀναμέσον τῶν χειρῶν σου; καὶ ἐρεῖ, ἃς ἐπλήγην ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τῷ ἀγαπητῷ μου.

7 Ῥομφαία ἐξεγέρθητι ἐπὶ τοὺς ποιμένας μου, καὶ ἐπὶ ἄνδρα πολίτην μου, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ, πατάξατε τοὺς ποιμένας, καὶ ἐκσπάσατε τὰ πρόβατα· καὶ ἐπάξω τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ τοὺς μικρούς.

8 Καὶ ἔσται ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ, λέγει Κύριος, τὰ δύο μέρη αὐτῆς ἐξολοθρευθήσεται, καὶ ἐκλείψει, τὸ δὲ τρίτον ὑπολειφθήσεται ἐν αὐτῇ.

9 Καὶ διάξω τὸ τρίτον διὰ πυρὸς, καὶ πυρώσω αὐτοὺς, ὡς πυροῦται τὸ ἀργύριον, καὶ δοκιμῶ αὐτοὺς, ὡς δοκιμάζεται τὸ χρυσίον· αὐτὸς ἐπικαλέσεται τὸ ὄνομά μου, κἀγὼ ἐπακούσομαι αὐτῷ, καὶ ἐρῶ, λαός μου οὗτός ἐστι· καὶ αὐτὸς ἐρεῖ, Κύριος ὁ Θεός μου.

1 In that day every place shall be opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for removal and for separation.

departure.

2 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will utterly destroy the names of the idols from off the land, and there shall be no longer any remembrance of them: and I will cut off the false prophets and the evil spirit from the land.

3 And it shall come to pass, if a man will yet prophesy, that his father and his mother which gave birth to him shall say to him, Thou shalt not live; for thou hast spoken lies in the name of the Lord: and his father and his mother who gave him birth shall bind him as he is prophesying.

4 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision when he prophesies; and they shall clothe themselves with a garment of hair, because they have lied.

5 And one shall say, I am not a prophet, for I am a tiller of the ground, for a man brought me up thus from my youth.

6 And I will say to him, What are these wounds between thine hands? and he shall say, Those with which I was wounded in my beloved house.

The house of my beloved.

7 Awake, O sword, against my shepherds, and against the man who is my citizen, saith the Lord Almighty: smite the shepherds, and draw out the sheep: and I will bring mine hand upon the little ones.

shepherd.

8 And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts thereof shall be cut off and perish; but the third shall be left therein.

9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and I will try them as silver is tried, and I will prove them as gold is proved: they shall call upon my name, and I will hear them, and say, This is my people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God.
