13
1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened
To the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem
For sin and for uncleanness.
2 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts,
That I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land,
And they shall no more be remembered:
And also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.
3 And it shall come to pass, that when any shall yet prophesy,
Then his father and his mother that begat him shall say unto him, Thou shalt not live;
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 And it shall come to pass in that day,
That the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision, when he hath prophesied;
Neither shall they wear a rough garment to deceive:
5 But he shall say, I am no prophet, I am a husbandman;
For man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.
6 And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands?
Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.
7 Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow,
Saith the Lord of hosts:
Smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered:
And I will turn mine hand upon the little ones.
8 And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord,
Two parts therein shall be cut off and die;
But the third shall be left therein.
9 And I will bring the third part through the fire,
And will refine them as silver is refined,
And will try them as gold is tried:
They shall call on my name, and I will hear them:
I will say, It is my people:
And they shall say, The Lord is my God.
