Zechariah 13:9
New American Standard Bible
9 And I will bring the third part through the (A)fire,
Refine them as silver is refined,
And test them as gold is tested.
They will (B)call on My name,
And I will (C)answer them;
I will say, ‘They are (D)My people,’
And they will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’”
Matthew 3:10-12
New American Standard Bible
10 And the (A)axe is already laid at the root of the trees; therefore, (B)every tree that does not bear good fruit is being cut down and thrown into the fire.
11 “As for me, (C)I baptize you [a]with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; (D)He will baptize you [b]with the Holy Spirit and fire. 12 His (E)winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will (F)gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the (G)chaff with (H)unquenchable fire.”

13 (A)each one’s work will become evident; for (B)the day will show it because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test [a]the quality of each one’s work. 14 If anyone’s work which he has built on it remains, he will (C)receive a reward. 15 If anyone’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet only (D)so as through fire.
