Zechariah 12:10–13:6

Mourning for the Pierced One

10 i“And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will jlook on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him kas one mourns for his only son, and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn. 11 In that day there shall be a great lmourning in Jerusalem, mlike the mourning at Hadad Rimmon in the plain of 3Megiddo. 12 nAnd the land shall 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 oNathan 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 Shimei by itself, and their wives by themselves; 14 all the families that remain, every family by itself, and their wives by themselves.

Idolatry Cut Off

13 “In that aday ba fountain shall be opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for cuncleanness.

“It shall be in that day,” says the Lord of hosts, “that I will dcut off the names of the idols from the land, and they shall no longer be remembered. I will also cause ethe prophets and the unclean spirit to depart from the land. It shall come to pass that if anyone still prophesies, then his father and mother who begot him will say to him, ‘You shall fnot live, because you have spoken lies in the name of the Lord.’ And his father and mother who begot him gshall thrust him through when he prophesies.

“And it shall be in that day that hevery prophet will be ashamed of his vision when he prophesies; they will not wear ia robe of coarse hair to deceive. jBut he will say, ‘I am no prophet, I am a farmer; for a man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.’ And one will say to him, ‘What are these wounds between your 1arms?’ Then he will answer, ‘Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.’
