1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness.
2 And it shall come to pass (in that day), saith the LORD (of hosts), that I will cut off the names (of the idols) out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.
3 And it shall come to pass, that when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother that begat him shall say unto him,
Thou shalt not live; for thou speakest lies in the name (of the LORD): and his father and his mother that begat him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.
4 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision, when he hath prophesied; neither shall they wear a rough garment to deceive:
5 But he shall say,
I am no prophet, I am an husbandman; for man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.
6 And one shall say unto him,
What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer,
Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.
7 Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, saith the LORD (of hosts): smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones.
8 And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.
9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them [as] silver is refined, and will try them [as] gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say,
It is my people: and they shall say,
The LORD is my God.
