In the whole land, declares the Lord,
    two thirds shall be cut off and perish,
    (A)and one third shall be left alive.
And (B)I will put this third into the fire,
    and refine them as one refines silver,
    and test them as gold is tested.
(C)They will call upon my name,
    and (D)I will answer them.
(E)I will say, ‘They are my people’;
    and they will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’”

    yet one-third will be left in it.(A)
This third I will put into the fire;(B)
    I will refine them like silver(C)
    and test them like gold.(D)
They will call(E) on my name(F)
    and I will answer(G) them;
I will say, ‘They are my people,’(H)
    and they will say, ‘The Lord is our God.(I)’”

地上三分之二的人必遭剷除、毀滅,
只剩下三分之一的人存活。
這是耶和華說的。
我必使這三分之一的人受到火一般的考驗;
我必像熬煉銀子一樣熬煉他們,
像試煉金子一樣試煉他們。
他們必呼求我的名,
我必回應他們。
我必說,『這是我的子民。』
他們必說,『耶和華是我們的上帝。』」

This will take place in the whole land, declares the Lord:
    Two thirds of those who remain in it will be cut off and perish,
    but one third will be left in it.
I will put that third into the fire,
    and I will refine them as silver is refined,
    and I will test them as gold is tested.
    They will call on my name, and I will answer them.
    I will say, “This is my people.”
    And they will say, “The Lord is my God.”
