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 Jehovah 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, if any shall yet prophesy, that  his father and his mother that begat him shall say unto him,  Thou shalt not live; for thou speakest lies in the name of  Jehovah; 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 prophesieth;  neither shall they wear a hairy mantle to deceive.
 
5.    And he shall say, I am no prophet, I am a tiller of the  ground; for man acquired me as bondman from my youth.
 
6.    And one shall say unto him, What are those wounds in thy  hands? And he will say, Those with which I was wounded in the  house of my friends.
 
7.    Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, even against the man  that is my fellow, saith Jehovah of hosts: smite the  shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered, and I will turn my  hand upon the little ones.
 
8.    And it shall come to pass in all the land, saith Jehovah,  two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third  shall be left therein.
 
9.    And I will bring the third part into 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 answer them: I  will say, It is my people; and they shall say, Jehovah is my  God.
