BrLXXΚαὶ ἔσται ἐὰν προφητεύσῃ ἄνθρωπος ἔτι, καὶ ἐρεῖ πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ, οἱ γεννήσαντες αὐτὸν, οὐ ζήσῃ, ὅτι ψευδῆ ἐλάλησας ἐπʼ ὀνόματι Κυρίου· καὶ συμποδιοῦσιν αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ, οἱ γεννήσαντες αὐτὸν, ἐν τῷ προφητεύειν αὐτόν.
   (Kai estai ean profaʸteusaʸ anthrōpos eti, kai erei pros auton ho pataʸr autou, kai haʸ maʸtaʸr autou, hoi gennaʸsantes auton, ou zaʸsaʸ, hoti pseudaʸ elalaʸsas epʼ onomati Kuriou; kai sumpodiousin auton ho pataʸr autou, kai haʸ maʸtaʸr autou, hoi gennaʸsantes auton, en tōi profaʸteuein auton. )

BrTrAnd it shall come to pass, if a man will yet prophesy, that his father and his mother which gave birth to him shall say to him, Thou shalt not live; for thou hast spoken lies in the name of the Lord: and his father and his mother who gave him birth shall bind him as he is prophesying.

ULTIf any man continues to prophesy, his father and mother who bore him will tell him, ‘You will not live, for you speak lies in the name of Yahweh!’ Then the father and mother who bore him will pierce him when he prophesies.

USTIf someone continues to prophesy falsely, his own parents, even though he is their own son, will say to him, ‘You have told lies saying that Yahweh gave those messages to you, so you must die.’ Then they will stab him and kill him.

BSB  § And if anyone still prophesies, his father and mother who bore him will say to him, ‘You shall not remain alive, because you have spoken falsely in the name of the LORD.’ When he prophesies, his father and mother who bore him will pierce him through.


OEB  ⇔ If any man prophesy any more,
 ⇔ his father and his mother who bore him, will say to him,
 ⇔ ‘You will not live, for you speak falsehood in the name of the Lord.’
 ⇔ And his father and his mother who bore him will stab him through when he is seized by the prophetic frenzy.

WEBBEIt will happen that when anyone still prophesies, then his father and his mother who bore him will tell him, ‘You must die, because you speak lies in the LORD’s name;’ and his father and his mother who bore him will stab him when he prophesies.

WMBB (Same as above)

NETThen, if anyone prophesies in spite of this, his father and mother to whom he was born will say to him, ‘You cannot live, for you lie in the name of the Lord.’ Then his father and mother to whom he was born will run him through with a sword when he prophesies.

LSVAnd it has been, when one prophesies again,
That his parents, his father and his mother,
Have said to him, You do not live,
For you have spoken falsehood in the Name of YHWH,
And his father and his mother, his parents,
Have pierced him through in his prophesying.

FBVIf anyone continues to prophesy, his father and mother to whom he was born will tell him, “You shall not live, because you have told lies in the Lord's name.” Then his parents shall kill him because he has prophesied.

T4TIf someone continues to prophesy falsely, his parents must say to him, ‘You have told lies saying that Yahweh [MTY] gave those messages to you, so you must be executed.’ So if someone prophesies like that, his own father and mother must stab him and kill him.

LEBAnd then,[fn] if anyone prophesies again, his father and his mother who bore him will say to him, “You shall not live, because you have spoken a lie in the name of Yahweh!” And his father and his mother who bore him will pierce him through when he prophesies.


13:3 Literally “And it will happen”

BBEAnd if anyone goes on acting as a prophet, then his father and his mother who gave him life will say to him, You may not go on living, for you are saying what is false in the name of the Lord; and his father and his mother will put a sword through him when he does so.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

13:3 You must die: According to God’s law, a false prophet must be executed (Deut 13:5, 10; 18:20). The Israelites had tolerated false prophets and killed the Lord’s true prophets. In the future, the situation would be reversed.
