¹On that day, a fountain will open

²On that day, says the LORD of heavenly forces,

Moreover, I will remove the prophets and the sinful spirit from the land.

³If anyone again prophesies,

“You won’t live, for you have told a lie in the name of the LORD .”

That person’s own birth father and mother will stab him when he prophesies.

⁴On that day each of the prophets will be ashamed of his vision when he prophesies

⁵Each will say, “I’m not a prophet.

⁶Someone will say to him,

“What are these wounds between your hands?”

⁷Sword, arise against my shepherd,

Strike the shepherd in order to scatter the flock!

⁸Throughout all the land, says the LORD ,

⁹I will put the third part into the fire.

They will call on my name, and I will respond to them.
