ゼカリヤ書 13

1 その日罪と汚穢を清むる一の泉ダビデの家とヱルサレムの居民のために開くべし

“In that day there will be a fountain opened to David’s house and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for uncleanness.

2 萬軍のヱホバ言たまふ其日には我地より偶像の名を絶のぞき重て人に記憶らるること無らしむべし我また預言者および汚穢の靈を地より去しむべし

It will come to pass in that day, says the LORD of Armies, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they will be remembered no more. I will also cause the prophets and the spirit of impurity to pass out of the land.

3 人もしなほ預言することあらば其生の父母これに言ん汝は生べからず汝はヱホバの名をもて虚僞を語るなりと而してその生の父母これが預言しをるを刺ん

It will happen that when anyone still prophesies, then his father and his mother who bore him will tell him, ‘You must die, because you speak lies in the LORD’s name;’ and his father and his mother who bore him will stab him when he prophesies.

4 その日には預言者等預言するに方りてその異象を羞ん重て人を欺かんために毛衣を纒はじ

It will happen in that day that the prophets will each be ashamed of his vision when he prophesies; they won’t wear a hairy mantle to deceive,

5 彼言ん我は預言者にあらず地を耕へす者なり即ち我は若き時より人に買れたりと

but he will say, ‘I am no prophet, I am a tiller of the ground; for I have been made a bondservant from my youth.’

6 若これに向ひて然らば汝の兩手の間の傷は何ぞやと言あらば是は我が愛する者の家にて受たる傷なりと答へん

One will say to him, ‘What are these wounds between your arms?’ Then he will answer, ‘Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.’

7 萬軍のヱホバ言たまふ劍よ起て我牧者わが伴侶なる人を攻よ牧者を撃て然らばその羊散らん我また我手を小き者等の上に伸べし

“Awake, sword, against my shepherd, and against the man who is close to me,” says the LORD of Armies. “Strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered; and I will turn my hand against the little ones.

8 ヱホバ言たまふ全地の人二分は絶れて死に三分の一はその中に遺らん

It shall happen that in all the land,” says the LORD, “two parts in it will be cut off and die; but the third will be left in it.

9 我その三分の一を携へて火にいれ銀を熬分るごとくに之を熬分け金を試むるごとくに之を試むべし彼らわが名を呼ん我これにこたへん我これは我民なりと言ん彼等またヱホバは我神なりと言ん

I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, ‘It is my people;’ and they will say, ‘The LORD is my God.’”
