Zechariah 13:8-9

Common English Bible

⁸ Throughout all the land, says the Lord,
        two-thirds will be cut off and die;
            but one-third will be left in it.
⁹ I will put the third part into the fire.
        I will refine them like one refines silver;
            I will test them like one tests gold.
They will call on my name, and I will respond to them.
        I will say, “They are my people.”
            And they will say, “The Lord is our God.”
