Zechariah

The Struck Shepherd and the Purified Remnant

13
Chapter 13
7 "Sword, awaken upon my shepherd and upon the man, my companion"—declares the LORD of Hosts. "Strike the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered, and I will turn back my hand upon the little ones." 8 And it will be, in all the land—utterance of the LORD—that two thirds in it will be cut off, they will expire, and the third will remain in it. 9 And I will bring the third part through fire, and I will refine them like refining the silver, and I will test them like testing the gold. He will call on my name, and I will answer him. I have said, "My people"—and he will say, "The LORD my God."
