Zechariah 13:4-8
4And on that day every prophet who prophesies will be ashamed of his vision, and he will not put on a hairy cloak in order to deceive. 5He will say, ‘I am not a prophet; I work the land, for I was purchased as a servant in my youth.1’ 6If someone asks him, ‘What are these wounds on your chest2?’ he will answer, ‘These are the wounds I received in the house of my friends.’
7Awake, O sword, against My Shepherd,against the man who is My Companion,declares the LORD of Hosts.Strike the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered,3and I will turn My hand against the little ones.8And in all the land,declares the LORD,two-thirds will be cut off and perish,but a third will be left in it.
