ZECHARIAH
[XIII
All the families that remain,
Every family apart, and their wives apart.
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.
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.
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.
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:
But he shall say, I am no prophet, I am an husbandman;
For man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.

[ 1214 ]
