Zechariah 13:3 in Context — Zechariah 13

1 Naquele dia haverá uma fonte aberta para a casa de Davi e para os moradores de Jerusalém, contra o pecado e a impureza.

2 E será naquele dia,diz o SENHOR dos exércitos, que eliminarei da terra os nomes dos ídolos, de modo nunca mais serão lembrados; e também eliminarei da terra os profetas e o espírito impuro.

3 E será que, quando alguém vier a profetizar, seu pai e sua mãe que o geraram lhe dirão: Não viverás, porque tens falado mentira no nome do SENHOR; e seu pai e sua mãe que o geraram o traspassarão quando profetizar.

4 E será naquele dia, que os profetas se envergonharão, cada um de sua visão, quando profetizarem; e nunca mais se vestirão de manto de pelos para mentir

5 Em vez disso, dirá: Não sou profeta; sou lavrador da terra, porque fui feito servo de um homem desde minha juventude.
