Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1“On that day a fountain will be opened to the house of David and the people of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and impurity.
1Ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἔσται πᾶς τόπος διανοιγόμενος τῷ οἴκῳ Δαυὶδ, καὶ τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν Ἱερουσαλὴμ εἰς τὴν μετακίνησιν, καὶ εἰς τὸν χωρισμόν.
2And on that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, I will erase the names of the idols from the land, and they will no longer be remembered. I will also remove the prophets and the spirit of impurity from the land.
2Καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, λέγει Κύριος σαβαὼθ, ἐξολοθρεύσω τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν εἰδώλων ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς, καὶ οὐκ ἔτι αὐτῶν ἔσται μνεία· καὶ τοὺς ψευδοπροφήτας, καὶ τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἀκάθαρτον ἐξαρῶ ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς.
3And if anyone still prophesies, his father and mother who bore him will say to him, ‘You shall not remain alive, because you have spoken falsely in the name of the LORD.’ When he prophesies, his father and mother who bore him will pierce him through.
3Καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν προφητεύσῃ ἄνθρωπος ἔτι, καὶ ἐρεῖ πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ, οἱ γεννήσαντες αὐτὸν, οὐ ζήσῃ, ὅτι ψευδῆ ἐλάλησας ἐπʼ ὀνόματι Κυρίου· καὶ συμποδιοῦσιν αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ, οἱ γεννήσαντες αὐτὸν, ἐν τῷ προφητεύειν αὐτόν.
4And on that day every prophet who prophesies will be ashamed of his vision, and he will not put on a hairy cloak in order to deceive.
4Καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ καταισχυνθήσονται οἱ προφῆται, ἕκαστος ἐκ τῆς ὁράσεως αὐτοῦ, ἐν τῷ προφητεύειν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐνδύσονται δέῤῥιν τριχίνην, ἀνθʼ ὧν ἐψεύσαντο.
5He will say, ‘I am not a prophet; I work the land, for I was purchased as a servant in my youth.’
5Καὶ ἐρεῖ, οὐκ εἰμὶ προφήτης ἐγὼ, διότι ἄνθρωπος ἐργαζόμενος τὴν γῆν ἐγώ εἰμι, ὅτι ἄνθρωπος ἐγέννησέ με ἐκ νεότητός μου.
6If someone asks him, ‘What are these wounds on your chest ?’ he will answer, ‘These are the wounds I received in the house of my friends.’
6Καὶ ἐρῶ πρὸς αὐτὸν, τί αἱ πληγαὶ αὗται ἀναμέσον τῶν χειρῶν σου; καὶ ἐρεῖ, ἃς ἐπλήγην ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τῷ ἀγαπητῷ μου.
7Awake, O sword, against My Shepherd, against the man who is My Companion, declares the LORD of Hosts. Strike the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered, and I will turn My hand against the little ones.
7Ῥομφαία ἐξεγέρθητι ἐπὶ τοὺς ποιμένας μου, καὶ ἐπὶ ἄνδρα πολίτην μου, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ, πατάξατε τοὺς ποιμένας, καὶ ἐκσπάσατε τὰ πρόβατα· καὶ ἐπάξω τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ τοὺς μικρούς.
8And in all the land, declares the LORD, two-thirds will be cut off and perish, but a third will be left in it.
8Καὶ ἔσται ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ, λέγει Κύριος, τὰ δύο μέρη αὐτῆς ἐξολοθρευθήσεται, καὶ ἐκλείψει, τὸ δὲ τρίτον ὑπολειφθήσεται ἐν αὐτῇ.
9This third I will bring through the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on My name, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘They are My people,’ and they will say, ‘The LORD is our God.’”
9Καὶ διάξω τὸ τρίτον διὰ πυρὸς, καὶ πυρώσω αὐτοὺς, ὡς πυροῦται τὸ ἀργύριον, καὶ δοκιμῶ αὐτοὺς, ὡς δοκιμάζεται τὸ χρυσίον· αὐτὸς ἐπικαλέσεται τὸ ὄνομά μου, κἀγὼ ἐπακούσομαι αὐτῷ, καὶ ἐρῶ, λαός μου οὗτός ἐστι· καὶ αὐτὸς ἐρεῖ, Κύριος ὁ Θεός μου.
