False Prophets Ashamed

1 "In that day a ¹fountain will be opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for ²sin and for ³impurity. 2 "It will come about in that day," declares the LORD of hosts, "that I will ⁴cut off the names of the idols from the land, and they will no longer be remembered ; and I will also remove the ⁵prophets and the ⁶unclean spirit from the land. 3 "And if anyone still ⁷prophesies, then his father and mother who gave birth to him will say to him, 'You shall ⁸not live, for you have spoken ⁹falsely in the name of the LORD '; and his ¹⁰father and mother who gave birth to him will pierce him through when he prophesies. 4 "Also it will come about in that day that the prophets will each be ¹¹ashamed of his vision when he prophesies, and they will not put on a ¹²hairy robe in order to deceive ; 5 but he will say, 'I am ¹³not a prophet ; I am a tiller of the ground, for a man ^asold me as a slave in my youth.' 6 "And one will say to him, 'What are these wounds ¹⁴between your ^barms ?' Then he will say, 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of ^cmy friends.' 7 "Awake, O ¹⁵sword, against My ¹⁶Shepherd, And against the man, My ¹⁷Associate," Declares the LORD of hosts. "¹⁸Strike the Shepherd that the sheep may be scattered ; And I will ¹⁹turn My hand ^dagainst the little ones. 8 "It will come about in all the land," Declares the LORD, "That ²⁰two parts in it will be cut off and perish ; But the third will be left in it. 9 "And I will bring the third part through the ²¹fire, Refine them as silver is refined, And test them as gold is tested. They will ²²call on My name, And I will ²³answer them; I will say, 'They are ²⁴My people,' And they will say, 'The LORD is my God.' "
