Zechariah 13:3-5
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
3 And if any prophets appear again, their fathers and mothers who bore them will say to them, “You shall not live, for you speak lies in the name of the Lord,” and their fathers and their mothers who bore them shall pierce them through when they prophesy.(A) 4 On that day the prophets will be ashamed, every one, of their visions when they prophesy; they will not put on a hairy mantle in order to deceive,(B) 5 but each of them will say, “I am no prophet; I am a tiller of the soil, for the land has been my possession[a] since my youth.”
