1 ل َكِنْ فِي ذَلِكَ الوَقتِ، سَيَنفَتِحُ نَبْعٌ لِعائِلَةِ داوُدَ وَلِسُكّانِ مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ، نَبْعٌ لِلتَّطهِيرَ مِنَ الخَطِيَّةِ وَالنَّجاسَةِ. إبادَةُ الأنبِياءِ الكَذَبَة

“In that day a fountain will be opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for impurity.

2 ي َقُولُ اللهُ القَدِيرُ: «فِي ذَلِكَ الوَقتِ، سَأجعَلُ النّاسَ سَاقطَعُ ذِكْرَ الأوثانِ مِنْ هَذِهِ الأرْضِ، فَلا يَعُودُ أحَدٌ يَذْكُرُهُمْ. وَسَأطْرُدُ الأنبِياءَ الكَذَبَةَ وَرُوحَهُمُ النَّجِسَةَ.

“It will come about in that day,” declares the Lord of hosts, “that I will cut off the names of the idols from the land, and they will no longer be remembered; and I will also remove the prophets and the unclean spirit from the land.

3 و َإنْ رَفَضَ أحَدٌ التَّوَقُّفَ عَنِ التَّنَبُّؤِ بِالكَذِبِ، فَإنَّ أباهُ وَأُمَّهُ اللَّذَينِ وَلَداهُ سَيَقُولانِ: ‹لا يَنْبَغِي أنْ تَعِيشَ، لِأنَّكَ تَنَبأْتَ بِاسمِ اللهِ فَكَذَبْتَ.› فَحِينَ يَتَنَبّأُ، سَيَطعَنُهُ أبُوهُ وَأُمُّهُ اللَّذانِ وَلَداهُ حِينَ يَتَنَبَّأُ.

And if anyone still prophesies, then his father and mother who gave birth to him will say to him, ‘You shall not live, for you have spoken falsely in the name of the Lord ’; and his father and mother who gave birth to him will pierce him through when he prophesies.

4 ف ِي ذَلِكَ الوَقتِ، سَيَخجَلُ كُلُّ واحِدٍ مِنَ الأنبِياءِ مِنْ أنْ يَقُولَ لِلنّاسِ ما رَآهُ فِي رُؤْيا. وَلَنْ يَعُودُوا يَرتَدُونَ ثِيابَ نَبِيٍّ مَصْنُوعَةً مِنَ الشَّعْرِ لِخِداعِ النّاسِ.

Also it will come about in that day that the prophets will each be ashamed of his vision when he prophesies, and they will not put on a hairy robe in order to deceive;

5 و َسَيَقُولُ كُلُّ واحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ: ‹لَسْتُ نَبِيّاً، أنا مُزارِعٌ. لِأنِّي عَمِلْتُ لَدَى صاحِبِ أرْضٍ مُنْذُ صِغَرِي.›

but he will say, ‘I am not a prophet; I am a tiller of the ground, for a man sold me as a slave in my youth.’

6 و َإنْ قالَ أحَدُهُمْ لَهُ: ‹كَيفَ أُصِبْتَ بِهَذِهِ الجُرُوحِ عَلَى يَدَيكَ؟› فَسَيَقُولُ: ‹جُرِحْتُ فِي بَيتِ أصدِقاءٍ لِي.›» ضَرْبُ الرّاعِي

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

7 ي َقُولُ اللهُ القَدِيرُ: «ارتَفِعْ يا سَيفُ وَاضرِبِ الراعِيَ الَّذِي عَيَّنْتُهُ، وَالرَّفِيقَ الَّذِي اختَرْتُهُ. اضْرِبِ الرّاعيَ فَتَتَشَتَّتُ الخِرافُ. وَأنا سَاتَعامَلُ مَعَ صِغارِي.

“Awake, O sword, against My Shepherd, And against the man, My Associate,” Declares the Lord of hosts. “ Strike the Shepherd that the sheep may be scattered; And I will turn My hand against the little ones.

8 و َفِي كُلِّ الأرْضِ سَيُبادُ ثُلُثا البَشَرِ، يَقُولُ اللهُ ، سَيَمُوتُونَ، وَلَنْ يَبقَى فِيها سِوَى ثُلُثٍ.

“It will come about in all the land,” Declares the Lord, “That two parts in it will be cut off and perish; But the third will be left in it.

9 و َسَآتِي بِالثُّلُثِ الباقِي إلَى النّارِ. سَأُطَهِّرُهُمْ كَما تُطَهَّرُ الفِضَّةُ، وَسَأمتَحِنُهُمْ كَما يُمتَحَنُ الذَّهَبُ. سَيَدعُونَنِي فَأستَجِيبَ لَهُمْ. سَأقُولُ: ‹إنَّهُمْ شَعبِي،› وَهُمْ سَيَقُولُونَ: ‹ اللهُ هُوَ إلَهُنا.›»

“And I will bring the third part through the fire, Refine them as silver is refined, And test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, And I will answer them; I will say, ‘They are My people,’ And they will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’”
