Zechariah 13
1 In that day there shall be a fountain open to the house of David, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem: for the washing of the sinner, and of the unclean woman.
En ce jour-là, il y aura une source ouverte à la maison de David et aux habitants de Jérusalem pour laver le péché et la souillure.
2 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will destroy the names of idols out of the earth, and they shall be remembered no more: and I will take away the false prophets, and the unclean spirit out of the earth.
Et il arrivera en ce jour-là, — oracle de Yahweh des armées: J'abolirai du pays les noms des idoles, et on n'en fera plus mention; et j'ôterai aussi du pays les prophètes et l'esprit d'impureté.
3 And it shall come to pass, that when any man shall prophesy any more, his father and his mother that brought him into the world, shall say to him: Thou shalt not live: because thou best spoken a lie in the name of the Lord. And his father, and his mother, his parents, shall thrust him through, when he shall prophesy.
Et si quelqu'un prophétise encore, son père et sa mère, qui l'ont engendré, lui diront: " Tu ne vivras pas, car tu as dit des mensonges, au nom de Yahweh! " Et son père et sa mère, qui l'ont engendré, le transperceront pendant qu'il prophétisera.
4 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be confounded, every one by his own vision, when he shall prophesy, neither shall they be clad with a garment of sackcloth, to deceive:
Et il arrivera en ce jour-là: Les prophètes auront honte, chacun de sa vision quand il prophétisera, et ils ne revêtiront plus le manteau de poil, en vue de mentir.
5 But he shall say: I am no prophet, I am a husbandman: for Adam is my example from my youth.
Tel dira: " Je ne suis pas prophète, moi; moi, je suis un homme qui cultive la terre, car un homme m'a acheté dès ma jeunesse. "
6 And they shall say to him: What are these wounds in the midst of thy hands? And he shall say: With these I was wounded in the house of them that loved me.
Et on lui dira: " Qu'est-ce que ces blessures à tes mains? " et il répondra: " J'ai reçu ces coups dans la maison de mes amis. "
7 Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that cleaveth to me, saith the Lord of hosts: strike the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn my hand to the little ones.
Epée, réveille-toi contre mon pasteur, contre l'homme qui est mon compagnon, — oracle de Yahweh des armées! Frappe le pasteur, et que le troupeau soit dispersé. Et je ramènerai ma main sur les petit.
8 And there shall be in all the earth, saith the Lord, two parts in it shall be scattered, and shall perish: but the third part shall be left therein.
Et dans tout le pays, — oracle de Yahweh, — les deux tiers seront exterminés, périront, et l'autre tiers y sera laissé.
9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined: and I will try them as gold is tried. They shall call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say: Thou art my people: and they shall say: The Lord is my God.
Je ferai entrer ce tiers dans le feu et je l'épurerai comme on épure l'argent, je l'éprouverai comme on éprouve l'or. Lui, il invoquera mon nom, et moi je l'exaucerai. Je dirai: " C'est mon peuple! " Et il dira: " Yahweh est mon Dieu! "
