Idolatry Cut Off
1“In that #Acts 10:43; (Rev. 21:6, 7)day #Ps. 36:9; (Heb. 9:14; 1 John 1:7)a fountain shall be opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for #Num. 19:17; Is. 4:4; Ezek. 36:25uncleanness.
2“It shall be in that day,” says the Lord of hosts, “that I will #Ex. 23:13; Hos. 2:17cut off the names of the idols from the land, and they shall no longer be remembered. I will also cause #Jer. 23:14, 15; 2 Pet. 2:1the prophets and the unclean spirit to depart from the land. 3It shall come to pass that if anyone still prophesies, then his father and mother who begot him will say to him, ‘You shall #Deut. 18:20; (Ezek. 14:9)not live, because you have spoken lies in the name of the Lord.’ And his father and mother who begot him #Deut. 13:6–11; (Matt. 10:37)shall thrust him through when he prophesies.
4“And it shall be in that day that #Jer. 6:15; 8:9; (Mic. 3:6, 7)every prophet will be ashamed of his vision when he prophesies; they will not wear #2 Kin. 1:8; Is. 20:2; Matt. 3:4a robe of coarse hair to deceive. 5#Amos 7:14But he will say, ‘I am no prophet, I am a farmer; for a man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.’ 6And one will say to him, ‘What are these wounds between your arms?’ Then he will answer, ‘Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.’
The Shepherd Savior
7“Awake, O sword, against #Is. 40:11; Ezek. 34:23, 24; 37:24; Mic. 5:2, 4My Shepherd,
Against the Man #(John 10:30)who is My Companion,”
Says the Lord of hosts.
#Matt. 26:31, 56, 67; Mark 14:27; 1 Pet. 5:4; Rev. 7:16, 17“Strike the Shepherd,
And the sheep will be scattered;
Then I will turn My hand against #Luke 12:32the little ones.
8And it shall come to pass in all the land,”
Says the Lord,
“That #Is. 6:13; Ezek. 5:2, 4, 12two-thirds in it shall be cut off and die,
#(Rom. 11:5)But one–third shall be left in it:
9I will bring the one–third #Is. 48:10; Ezek. 20:38; Mal. 3:3through the fire,
Will #1 Pet. 1:6, 7refine them as silver is refined,
And test them as gold is tested.
#Ps. 50:15; Zeph. 3:9; (Zech. 12:10)They will call on My name,
And I will answer them.
#Jer. 30:22; Hos. 2:23I will say, ‘This is My people’;
And each one will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’ ”
