12 “The land will mourn, every family by itself; the family of the house of David by itself and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Nathan by itself and their wives by themselves;

13 the family of the house of Levi by itself and their wives by themselves; the family of the Shimeites by itself and their wives by themselves;

14 all the families that remain, every family by itself and their wives by themselves.

2 “It will come about in that day,” declares the Lord of hosts, “that I will acut off the names of the idols from the land, and they will no longer be remembered; and I will also remove the bprophets and the cunclean spirit from the land.

3 “And if anyone still aprophesies, then his father and mother who gave birth to him will say to him, ‘You shall bnot live, for you have spoken cfalsely in the name of the Lord’; and his dfather 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 aashamed of his vision when he prophesies, and they will not put on a bhairy robe in order to deceive;

5 but he will say, ‘I am anot a prophet; I am a tiller of the ground, for a man 1sold me as a slave in my youth.’
