Zechariah 13:3 in Context — Zechariah 13
1 En ce jour-là, une source sera ouverte Pour la maison de David et les habitants de Jérusalem, Pour le péché et pour l’impureté.
2 En ce jour-là, dit l’Éternel des armées, J’exterminerai du pays les noms des idoles, Afin qu’on ne s’en souvienne plus; J’ôterai aussi du pays les prophètes et l’esprit d’impureté.
3 Si quelqu’un prophétise encore, Son père et sa mère, qui l’ont engendré, lui diront: Tu ne vivras pas, car tu dis des mensonges au nom de l’Éternel! Et son père et sa mère, qui l’ont engendré, le transperceront Quand il prophétisera.
4 En ce jour-là, les prophètes rougiront de leurs visions Quand ils prophétiseront, Et ils ne revêtiront plus un manteau de poil pour mentir.
5 Chacun d’eux dira: Je ne suis pas prophète, Je suis laboureur, Car on m’a acheté dès ma jeunesse.
