Zechariah 13:5 in Context — Zechariah 13

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.

6 Et si on lui demande: D’où viennent ces blessures que tu as aux mains? Il répondra: C’est dans la maison de ceux qui m’aimaient que je les ai reçues.

7 Épée, lève-toi sur mon pasteur Et sur l’homme qui est mon compagnon! Dit l’Éternel des armées. Frappe le pasteur, et que les brebis se dispersent! Et je tournerai ma main vers les faibles.
